Spectrally Enhanced Lighting
Energy Saving Lighting:
By implementing products and technologies in to your company that utilizes a blend of Spectrally Enhanced Lighting (SEL) or Light Emitting Diode (LED’s) and Induction Lighting our energy efficient lighting solutions provide optimum energy savings and the best quality lighting available. Utilizing these technologies in all commercial and industrial applications such as office space, hospitals, stores/hotels, manufacturing areas, warehouses, parking garages, and outdoor lighting provides substantial energy savings.
LED and Induction lighting is a highly efficient way to save money and energy at your business. In select directional applications, such as spot or track lighting, LEDs and Induction lighting can offer energy savings of up to 80% versus incandescent lighting, and more than 50% versus fluorescent or high-intensity discharge (HID). LEDs and Induction also produce less heat—reducing the need for air conditioning saving your company even more.
Advantages of LEDs and Induction Lights
The operational life of current white LED lamps is 50,000 hours and Induction lamps is 100,000 This is 5.5 years on LEDs and 11 years on Induction lamps of continuous 24 hour operation and 11 to 22 years respectively at 50% operation. The long operational life of an LED or Induction lamp is a stark contrast to the average life of an incandescent bulb, which is approximately 5000 hours. If the lighting device needs to be embedded into a very inaccessible place, using Induction lamps would virtually eliminate the need for routine bulb replacement.
There really is no comparison between the cost of LED and Induction lamps vs. traditional incandescent options. With incandescent bulbs, the true cost of the bulb is the cost of replacement bulbs and the labor expense and time needed to replace them. These are significant factors, especially where there are a large number of installed bulbs. For office buildings and skyscrapers, maintenance costs to replace bulbs can be enormous. These issues can all be virtually eliminated with the LED and Induction option.
The key strength of LED lighting is reduced power consumption. When properly designed and implemented, a lighting fixture will approach 80% efficiency, which means 80% of the electrical energy is converted to light energy. The remaining 20% is lost as heat energy. Compare that with incandescent bulbs which operate at about 20% efficiency (80% of the electrical energy you pay for is lost as heat not light). In real money terms, if a 100 Watt incandescent bulb is used for 1 year, with an electrical cost of 10 cents/kilowatt hour, $88 will be spent on electricity costs. Of the $88 expense, $70 will have been used to heat the room, not light the room. If an 80% efficient lighting system had been used, the electricity cost would be $23 per year – there would be a cost savings of $65 on electricity during the year. Realistically the cost savings would be even higher as most incandescent light bulbs blow out within a year and require replacements whereas LED and Induction lamps can be used easily for a decade without burning out.
