The Advantages of Techlumen Luminaires

Economic Performance

LED is rather a new technology. They have higher purchase cost which is offset by savings in energy and maintenance in 1-2 years, depending on their use.

Indeed, according to laboratory tests, an average lighting equipped with HQI250W consumes 0.31 KWh/h, while the consumption of TECHLUMEN LED 70W light was 0.072 KWh/h while it has 20% more luminous power. In other words, it consumes 77% less energy, while we have more light output.

The TECHLUMEN LED 54W light’s consumption is 0.054 KWh/h, achieving 82% energy saving with only 5% less luminous power than the conventional lighting.

Lower Operating Temperature

Existing sodium-mercury luminaires, although they are highly efficient, emit significant heat. The heat they generate when coupled with the smoke, exhaust, dust and moisture commonly present at industrial sites or outdoors, becomes an issue.

With the temperature of the exposed glass reaching up to 200+ degrees C, these deposits bake onto the glass surface and are often impossible to remove, even by high pressure water jet. The dirt deposited onto the luminaire absorbs and blocks the light output, causing much lower overall efficiency.

With far lower operating surface temperatures (up to 60 degrees C), Techlumen LED products are not subject to dirt baking onto the surface, and allow them to be washed while operating. Moreover, due to low heat emission they are suitable for cold storage units, or other heat sensitive facilities.

No Flickering Light

The LED lights operate at low voltage DC and produce no stroboscopic effects. LED Techlumen have high quality electronics and they produce light that is not tiring the eye.

Environmentally Friendly

The LED lights do not contain mercury and lead. They are fully recyclable and contribute to reducing the environmental footprint.

Safety – Human Friendly

The LED lights, in contrast to conventional lights, emit no UV and IR, which are very harmful to health. Moreover they operate from a low voltage power supply, which is substantially safer than 240VAC powered light sources.

Instantly Lighting Up

Existing lighting solutions need some time to warm up and to reach maximum brightness. It takes even longer, after a power failure or voltage drop.

In contrast, LED lights illuminate directly at maximum brightness, every time they are put into operation.

Lifetime – 50,000 Hours

The Bridgelux LED chip has a lifetime of 50,000 hours of continuous operation. That is 5 times longer than any other lamp technology.

Efficiency up to 200 lm/W

Techlumen’s LEDs are driven to achieve high efficacy. Moreover the design of the optics and the efficient cooling contribute to the excellent efficiency of our luminaires, up to 200 lm/W, which is significantly better than competition.
