Horticutral Lighting
LED Industrial lighting can save much energy when replacing traditional Metal Halide(MH) lights.
However, energy saving is not the only benefit. LED Industrial lighting can also improve the safety of industrial facilities.
Some disadvantages of MH lights:
1. If it is shut down unexpectedly, it cannot be reactivated immediately.
2. Fragility. If the glass breaks, there is a risk of pollution.
3. Lifetime is very short, and it needs to be replaced frequently. Employees must work at heights.
When power supply is interrupted, usually we need to wait some minutes for MH lights to turn on again.
In industrial facilities, even if there is no lighting for a few minutes, it will pose a considerable risk to workers, especially if the factory uses heavy machinery or includes high-temperature processes.
LED Industrial lighting can be restarted immediately when turned off to ensure continuous lighting. In addition, when power is cut off for a long time, LED lights can be lit for a long time through the backup battery, because their power consumption is very low.
MH lights are fragile because they are made of glass. If they are impacted, it is easy to get broken, and when they are close to the end of their lifetime, they are also easy to explode. When MH lights has this kind of failure, there will be two risks:
1. Low visibility in the area
2. Glass fragments in the work area. This can be particularly dangerous in areas where food is processed or stored.
While LED Industrial lighting uses solid-state technology, which can make lamps without using glass.
Lifetime of MH lights is about 10,000 hours, but it might lose more than 30% of its brightness within 5000 hours before use. Therefore, they are often replaced before the end of their service life. In industrial facilities, this means working at heights.
In addition, lifetime of LED Industrial lighting is up to 100,000 hours. Even in an industrial plant that operates 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, this is equivalent to continuous operation for more than a decade without changing the lights. Due to less replacement, the risk of accidents during high-altitude operation is also reduced.
Conclusion
LED Industrial lighting not only saves energy, but also makes facilities safer. It eliminates the risk of glass failure and the release of glass debris, as well as the risk of long-term interruption of lighting. Since the lights are rarely replaced, the work of electrical maintenance personnel has also become safer.
So, why not switch to LED Industrial lighting? AGC is top manufacturer of LED Industrial lighting from China. Surely we can help you win more business.
