A lamp’s luminous efficacy is measured in lumens per watt (lpw). Efficacy Examples There are ranges of values for each lamp/source type • Incandescent Lamp ~15 lumens/watt • Metal Halide Lamp ~90 lumens/watt • Linear Fluorescent Lamp ~95 lumens/watt • High Pressure Sodium Lamp ~110 lumens/watt • LED ~100 - 215 lumens/watt 9 Lighting Equipment Luminous Efficacy Zonal Cavity Formula Where: Lamp plus fixture Eavg = Average Illuminance [fc] Eavg = # fixtures x lamps/fixture x lamp lumens/lamp x CU x LLF CU = Luminaire Coefficient of Utilization L x W LLF = Light Loss Factor L = Length W = Width Integrated LED fixture Eavg = # fixtures x delivered lumens/fixture x CU x LLF L x W 10 Lighting Equipment Rated Average Lamp Life vs. 11 Lighting Equipment Rated Average Lamp Life for Conventional Sources Time, in hours, after which half of a large group lamps are still in operation, and half have failed. Sometimes rated for a certain number of hours of operation per start. 12 Lighting Equipment Light Emitting Diode (LED) Life Expectancy Defined using IES LM-80 Effective lifespan of LED’s is considered to be when the LED reaches 70% of its initial output – L70. May be marketed as life at 80% light output – L80. 13 Lighting Equipment Lamp Lumen Depreciation (LLD) 3rd generation T8 Fluorescent T12 Fluorescent Describes the decrease in lumen output of Lumens Initial Percent a lamp during its operable life. Relative terms: Percent Rated Life • Lumen maintenance • Mean lumens 14 Lighting Equipment Beam Spread for Directional Lamps The angle at which luminous intensity of a lamp is half of the Center Beam Candlepower (CBCP). PG&E Pacific Energy Center 2017 15 Lighting Equipment Incandescent Operation - Tungsten filament is heated to incandescence. Features: • Significant amount of infrared (heat) is produced along with visible light. • Lowest efficacy (10-20 lm/W) • Short lamp life (750 - 2,000 hrs) • High operating and maintenance costs • Easy/inexpensive to dim • Point source allows for good focal aiming • Good color, continuous spectrum, red-dominant Naming codes are generally for shape or function. A Arbitrary (example: A19 lamp) PG&E Pacific Energy Center 2017 R Reflector T Tubular PAR Parabolic Aluminized Reflector 16 Lighting Equipment Halogen and Halogen Infrared (HIR) Operation – An incandescent lamp with a small, transparent capsule filled with an inert gas and halogen around tungsten filament which is heated to incandescence. Burns brighter and hotter. Features: • High infrared (heat) is produced along with visible light. • Low efficacy (16-24 lm/W) • Increased lamp life (~2,000 hrs) Image provided by GE Lighting • Operates best on low voltage (system requires transformer) • Dimmable, but controls communicate through transformer • Point source allows for excellent focal aiming • Some codes are phasing out their usage HIR type - A dichroic film is applied to the quartz capsule. • Allows visible light to pass Image provided by Osram Lighting • Reflects infrared back onto filament so filament runs hotter and brighter, for same wattage. 18 Lighting Equipment Fluorescent Operation - Mercury vapor arc stream emits UV energy. Phosphors convert UV energy into visible light. Features: • High efficacy (up to 100 lm/W) • Long life (up to 40,000 h) • Low initial cost PG&E Pacific Energy Center 2017 • Color temperature (CCT) options • Potentially high CRI • High frequency operation • Excellent lumen maintenance • Ballast required for operation • Dimming requires dimming ballast • Not a point source, general light distribution 19 Lighting Equipment Compact Fluorescent Operation - Operates like linear fluorescent lamps. Has curved tubes and curved arc streams, which are inherently less efficient than straight arc lamps. Features: • Compact size • High efficacy (up to 60 lm/W) • High CRI • Long life (up to 16,000 hr) • High frequency operation • Excellent lumen maintenance • Unique socket per CFL type • Ballast required – as part of lamp in replacement lamps, or separate in some fixtures • Thermally sensitive PG&E Pacific Energy Center 2017 • Best for sconces, pendant, or ceiling mounted decorative luminaires 21 Lighting Equipment Participant Poll #3: Which of the following lamps is more “sustainable”? 22 Lighting Equipment High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lamps Operation - sends an electrical discharge between two electrodes and through a plasma, or ionized gas.
