Method of prolonging the service life of the LED lighting system

The transient surge events of the ac power lines, easy to cause damage of outdoor LED lighting equipment.In LED power supply front installing surge protection components, is both economical and effective solution, but in a microsecond time suppress transient overvoltage, avoid overheating situation, so as to improve the reliability of LED lighting equipment and prolong service life.

About 25% of global energy consumption is produced by the lighting application, therefore, make the lighting more significant influence on the overall energy utilization, energy saving, also save more energy available for other applications.The legislation, legislation to discourage people to use incandescent lamp has become LED lighting equipment demand growth is an important factor.At the same time, consumers and industrial users to energy-saving lighting solution is growing, further stimulate the market demand for LED lighting.

Leds (higher lumens per watt) efficiency, secondary optical components (better/mirror lens), and heat dissipation technology innovation, make LED lighting gradually replaced the traditional light source, such as outdoor applications of mercury lamp, metal halide lamp and sodium lamp.Outdoor LED lighting, however, would be very expensive to install, return on investment must be based on a lower wattage demand, lower maintenance cost and longer service life.About 5 years to prevent outdoor LED in the investment return period fails, high durability and reliability is very important.The ac power lines in the transient surge events, a serious threat to outdoor LED lighting lamps and lanterns.
