Description
The ProfiLux 4.1 Mega-Set 6E is the complete entry into professional aquarium monitoring and automation – every component matched, calibrated, and ready to connect. At its core, the ProfiLux 4.1 continuously measures and regulates the parameters that matter most: temperature, pH, redox/ORP, and conductivity (switchable between fresh and saltwater). All four measurement modules are built in. The included lab-grade sensors and calibration fluids let you get started immediately with reliable, accurate data – no separate sourcing of compatible probes required.
32-channel illumination control simulates clouds, storms, moon phases, and seasonal lighting changes with precision. Combined with dimmable GHL lights, it creates natural conditions that promote the species-specific behavior of your animals. The included Powerbar 6E-PAB connects to the ProfiLux via PAB cable and gives you six individually switchable, fused sockets with per-socket current monitoring.
The ProfiLux 4.1 extends connectivity beyond WiFi and USB with a dedicated LAN port (Ethernet) – the wired connection that demanding installations require. OTA firmware updates are applied wirelessly or via network, no USB cable needed. Access your aquarium via the built-in webserver, GHL Connect app, or the myGHL cloud service – from anywhere, on any device. GHL Connect and GHL Control Center run fully locally – no internet connection required, no cloud dependency.
When your setup grows, the ProfiLux 4.1 grows with it. Two external and one internal expansion card slots accept a wide range of Expansion Cards, and the ProfiLux Aquatic Bus (PAB) connects Expansion Boxes, Dosers, and other devices. ProfiLux runs ProfiLuxOS – GHL’s own operating system, purpose-built for aquarium control from day one. Trusted by aquarists across the globe for decades. Made in Germany.
Difference Between ProfiLux 4.1 and ProfiLux 4.0
The ProfiLux 4.1 takes connectivity further versus the ProfiLux 4.0: in addition to WiFi and USB, it adds a LAN port (Ethernet) and supports OTA firmware updates – wirelessly or via network, no USB required.
