Induction Lighting for Energy Efficient Industrial Lighting by Think Wise

Induction lighting is the latest innovation in energy efficient and long life industrial lighting. Suitable for high bay, low bay, flood, street and tunnel applications, induction lighting utilises fluorescent technology, with one major difference. Induction lighting does not use electrodes (which degrade over time and eventually fail), but instead, uses a frequency generator to produce a radio frequency magnetic field which excites the gas in the tube.

The practical effect of such an innovation is that customers can now expect lifetimes of up to 100,000 hours, meaning if run 12 hours a day on 365 days of the year, the lights will last over 20 years. This will cut maintenance and replacement costs significantly, which can be very expensive when lights are not easy to reach. Further to this, the very slow decay of induction lighting, means that customers can expect a 25% energy saving for the same light levels over the life of the light.

In a nutshell, the expected benefits include:

• 100,000 hour lifetime
• 25% energy saving from Metal Halide equivalent
• Low maintenance costs
• 4 year warranty on ballast and lamp
• Flicker free
• Hum free
• Power Factor > 0.95
• Optional Dimming Sensor
