The increase in the level of energy consumption with the simultaneous increase in the cost of energy resources leads to the spread of new energy saving technologies. Currently, there is an increase in sales of LED-based lighting products for household and industrial use, which are becoming increasingly affordable.
Many European countries have laws to phase out incandescent lights.Energy savingwhen replacing such light sources, as well as halogen and fluorescent lamps with LEDs, it reaches 2-8 times. In addition, switching to energy-efficient devices reduces operating and maintenance costs, improves the environmental safety of facilities and reduces carbon dioxide emissions.
Energy saving features of LED lights
The design of the LED lamp, including the housing, optical system and crystal with semiconductor properties, allows you to convert electricity into light flux without unnecessary loss, thereby reducing energy consumption and ensuring visibilityenergy saving.
The service life of LED devices, while ensuring effective heat dissipation, reaches 60-100 thousand hours or more than 10 years. The operating time of incandescent lamps is on average 1 thousand hours. Thanks to reliability, durability and low energy consumptionenergy savingwhen installing a new light fixture, it can be seen even on the scale of a small manufacturing plant or commercial facility. Devices based on LED technology get a full return on investment within 1-2. 5 years.
Choose LED devices with optimal characteristics
The modern lighting market offers LED devices with various features and energy saving indicators, which are decisiveenergy savingwhen using the device.
When choosing a lamp, it is important to pay attention to the value of the luminous efficiency indicator, which is the amount of luminous flux emitted by the light source when using one watt of electricity. To maintain the level of illumination and maintain comfortable conditions in the facility, the luminous flux of the installed lamps must be selected not lower than this indicator for the replaced device. When installing lamps, it is necessary to take into account that for incandescent lamps the luminous efficiency is 10-15 lm/W, for fluorescent devices - 65 lm/W, and modern LED devices - 110-150 lm/W.
