What is an LED Street Light?
An LED street light is a lighting fixture installed on top of a pole to illuminate roadways, sidewalks, parking areas, and other exterior spaces. It is an essential component of infrastructure that ensures safety in public and residential areas.
Types of LED Street Lights
LED street lights can be categorized based on their heatsink design into two main types: modular design and full die-casting aluminum design.
- Modular Design: These street lights feature easy replacement and excellent heat dissipation.
- Full Die-Casting Aluminum Design: Increasingly popular, these street lights offer durability and robustness.
Difference Between LED and Traditional Street Lights
- High Efficiency: LED street lights use LEDs as their light source, which are significantly more efficient than traditional light sources, saving up to 80% in energy costs and promoting eco-friendliness.
- No Toxic Elements: LED street lights contain fewer toxic elements. All Mason LED street lights have obtained the RoHS certification, ensuring safety and environmental compliance.
- Fewer Lights Needed: Due to their high efficiency, fewer LED street lights are required to illuminate the same area compared to traditional lights. Proper light distribution enhances this efficiency, allowing even lower energy consumption.
- Long Life Span: LED street lights have a long service life, with 70% lumen maintenance lasting up to 100,000 hours and low failure rates of LED drivers with MTBF ratings over 200,000 hours. This longevity means LED lights can last up to six times longer than other types, reducing replacement frequency and resource consumption for street lighting projects.
Benefits of LED Street Lights
- Energy Savings: Up to 80% energy savings compared to traditional lights.
- Environmental Safety: RoHS certification ensures fewer toxic elements.
- Cost Efficiency: Fewer lights needed and reduced energy consumption.
- Durability: Long life span reduces maintenance and replacement costs.
