  • Converting Fluorescent Or Neon Signs to Energy-Efficient LED Illumination
    A brighter idea? Converting fluorescent or neon signs to energy-efficient LED illumination epending on the type of your interior or exterior lighted sign, it may very Dwell pay to update its illumination to energy-efficient light-emitting diodes or LED LEDs. Thousands have found the value in retrofitting, including one nationwide chain of thousands of convenience stores. But is it right for you? Here are some considerations. LED advantages over fluorescent lighting and able to withstand shock and vibration. In contrast, neon, which is encased in glass, breaks relatively easily Some estimate that illumination via light-emitting diodes during transportation and installation, and is subject to the over fluorescent bulbs can reduce sign maintenance and same hazards of wind and weather as fluorescent bulbs. energy costs by up to 80 percent.

  • Design and Radiation Tests on a LED Based Emergency Evacuation
    Design and radiation tests on a LED based emergency evacuation directional lighting PoS(TWEPP-17)092 Juan Casas CERN-TE/CRG 1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Nikolaos Trikoupis1 CERN-TE/CRG 1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] A LED (Light Emitting Diode) based directional lighting system has been designed to indicate the best evacuation direction for applications like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel. The design includes constraints for redundancy required by safety systems and for components selection by radiation effects. Most of the literature for radiation effects on LEDs concern digital communications systems, although some recent reports do exist for visible spectrum power LEDs and the reduction in light output versus dose is coherent with the results presented in this paper. Prototype lighting units were irradiated in CERN’s CHARM facility up to a Total Integrated Dose (TID) of 870 Gy and no failures were observed. This paper describes the basic design, presents field tests and the effects of radiation on the LEDs luminance.

  • MOGUL BASE LED REPLACEMENT LAMPS Report Summary
    PHASE 1: MOGUL BASE LED REPLACEMENT LAMPS Report Summary December 18, 2014 A Report of BPA Energy Efficiency’s Emerging Technologies Initiative Prepared for Levin Nock, Project Manager for Aerotek Staffing Agency, on assignment to Bonneville Power Administration John Wilson, Program Manager Bonneville Power Administration And Washington State University Energy Program This report summary was condensed by Levin Nock for the DesignLights Consortium Technical Committee, from the complete 71-page report prepared by The Lighting Research Center, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute 21 Union Street Troy, NY 12180 Leora C. Radetsky Jennifer Brons Russ Leslie BPA Contract Number: 115764 G003306 Abstract Mogul base LED replacement lamps are being marketed as equivalent replacements for incumbent HID lamps. LRC characterized the HID marketplace and conducted photometric and electrical testing on 18 mogul base LED lamps to inform the DesignLights Consortium (DLC) on these products’ performance in consideration of them being added to the Qualified Products List (QPL). LRC found that 4 of the 18 lamps met the minimum tested DLC QPL criteria for retrofit kits when the lamps were placed in area lighting and roadway luminaires. The wall pack and high bay luminaire combinations did not meet the applicable tested retrofit kit criteria. Additional testing will be conducted in Phase 2 of this project to better inform the DLC on these lamps’ performance. This report summary includes an Executive Summary of 2 pages, a main body of 15 pages, and an Appendix. 1 An Emerging Technologies for Energy Efficiency Report The following report was funded by the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) as an assessment of the state of technology development and the potential for emerging technologies to increase the efficiency of electricity use.
