INDUCTION LIGHTING

What is Induction lighting?

An Induction lamp is different type of fluorescent light. Just like other forms of fluorescent lights, the induction lamps use a gas discharge to excite phosphors which coat the inside of the lamp.

What makes it different?

The biggest difference is the way in which the current is generated within the lamp. Traditional flurorscent lamps use internal electrodes to excite phosphors within a glass tube thus producing illumination. These electrodes are attached by metal caps that connect on the ends of the tube. Because metal and glass expand and contract at different rates, air leakage occurs which causes premature lamp failure.

Induction fluorescent lighting, howevr, uses an electrode-less, hermetically sealed tube which eliminates air leakage issues altogether. Since no electrodes are present, two ferrite coil electromagnets driven by a patented high-frequency generator provide the current to excite phosphors which in turn produces illumination.

Advantages and Highlights of Induction Lapm

1. Long Lifetime - average lifetime as much as 100,000 hours, equivalent to 10 to 15 times of lifetime of CFL lamp, maintenance-free in the long run

2. High Lighting Efficacy - more than 80lm/W, equivalent to 8 or 9 pcs of incandescent lamp tin the same wattage.

3. High Color Rendering Index - 75 to 85 high resolution & clear and clean color

4. High Power Factor - more than 0.99 resulting in less investment in power cable

5. High-Frequency Working, no flashing of light and with Soft Light - eyesight protection

6. Quick Start- Instant start even at hot or low ambient temperature

7. Low Light Decay - The luminance maintenance rate is more than 70% after 60,000 hours to ensure enough light output in the lifetime.

Note: There are more than 150 install base in many companies
