LED Tubes – Embark on a Lighting Retrofit
Comments off · Posted by admin in LED, LED Tubes, Philips LED
Lighting technology has improved over the years. Since the time light was invented to the latest LED lighting technology, lighting has greatly evolved. Up until recently, the mainstay lighting solution for any office or commercial building has been the fluorescent tube. Millions upon millions of these inefficient lamps have been installed worldwide. They consume large amounts of energy within the lamp, and also within the starter/ballast circuit. They contain toxic chemicals such as mercury and phosphors. And they have poor lifespans, lasting just a few thousand hours before beginning to flicker and fail. Sometimes they take a while to light up when switched on. In summary, they are a disappointing lighting technology that has been superceded by a far superior technology – the LED Tubes.
Most quality LED tubes have rated lives that are far longer than fluorescent tubes, up to 50,000 hours (L70); long enough to fit and forget, and reduce your maintenance bills. LED tubes consume less than half the energy of fluorescent tubes, which combined with their durability leads to good cost of ownership savings. T8 LED tubes come in all the same lengths that fluorescent tubes do, which makes for a quick and easy retrofit. The Philips MasterLED tube range comes with a 5 year warranty, which guarantees you will make significant cash savings over the lifetime of the tube. Novel Energy Lighting sells a range of quality LED tubes and tube fittings. Some fittings are IP65 rated for outdoor installation and with vandal resistance casings.
One of the LED Tube fittingss sold by Novel Energy Lighting is the Philips LED WT120C Coreline Waterproof line, which is an IP65 rated solid-state LED tubed fitting. This comes in colour temperature of 4000K, and produces 90 to 120lm/W and is maintenance free. It has a sleek design and can be easily installed. It is a perfect retrofit for car parks, warehouses, cold storage rooms, and other locations that require waterproof, vandal resistant lighting.

LED lamps are become popular in today’s competitive lighting world. LED Tubes are leading demand when it comes to lighting homes, offices and other commercial areas. These lights provide high efficiency, while having a longer lifespan of up to 50,000 hours, in comparison to fluorescent tubes. These LEDs are also eco-friendly and help in saving over 70% energy. Less heat is produced from LED tubes, and less power is used. To be sure of quality when choosing LED products, stick with Novel Energy Lighting. It sells lighting products manufactured by the reputable and top brands in the lighting industry.
The LED Tubes that Novel Energy Lighting sells are of high quality and performance, and this is backed up by the 5 year warranties provided on Philips MasterLED and Emprex LED tubes. The chip is the core of the LED tube . It is important that high quality chips are used to ensure uniform luminosity and colour temperature. It is also important to ensure that lumens output can truly match the fluorescent tube it is to replace. The tubes we sell use high quality Samsung and Chi Mei chips. Tubes vary in length to match fluorescent tubes in the market. Different cooling methods are available, such as thermoplastic or aluminium heat sink. Tubes of high luminous efficiency and low power consumption should be used.. LED tubes are shock resistant and do not contain glass, which makes them safer to handle and transport. Their reduced heat output also reduces damage to fittings. Novel Energy Lighting understands what makes a great LED tube and offers such high quality products to its customers.

LED Tubes – Lighting That Reduces Carbon Footprint
Comments off · Posted by admin in LED, LED Tubes, Philips LED
Lighting can be both functional and aesthetic. The problem is that lighting is getting more and more expensive as electricity prices rise. Offices are generally lit using fluorescent tubes, and this lighting is switched on for many hours each day. Fluorescent tubes have a rated life of around 9,000hrs but often fail much earlier. This can cause real headaches for maintenance departments. Switch to LED tubes, which last much longer (>40,000hours) and consume >60% less electricity. LED tubes come in frosted or clear cover designs and are a simple retrofit for fluorescent tubes. With the use of LED technology, you can illuminate your office, shop or any commercial space.
LED tubes are a safe and high quality alternative to traditional lighting. They are also instant on, and do not flicker, unlike fluorescent tubes. The lower energy consumption also means much less heat. LED tubes can be used as general lighting in production areas, offices, corridors, supermarkets and industrial settings. These tubes are durable and provide uniform illumination. As these lights are mercury-free, these are environmentally friendly products. They have a much lower carbon footprint because they consume less energy. Novel Energy Lighting sells quality LED tube brands such as Philips, Emprex, Heathfield and others, and can help you reduce your carbon footprint. LED Tube all in one fittings such as Coreline Waterproof, Coreline Batten, and Sylvania Slyproof are also available for simple IP65 retrofits.

Terry Anderson
Building manager, Northamptonshire Police
We’re starting to introduce LEDs
We’ve used LEDs when we’ve done office refurbishments. We’ve gone from individual cellular offices to open-plan offices at the force headquarters in Northampton. We’ve done this primarily to house more people. And when we’ve done this we’ve converted the old T5s and T8s to LED.
I’ve also used them outside under walkways. I’ve recently completed a project where I’ve replaced a load of SON 80s with LED spotlights on a building for general lighting around our firearms range. That’s probably the most adventurous project I’ve attempted with the police force. They’re very old school.
Initial installations have been successful
LEDs are reducing our energy consumption. Most of our buildings are old, and so the Display Energy Certificates (DEC) are very low. The energy being used against the floor area of the building doesn’t quite work out, and it drags our DECs down.
By changing as many of the old lights to LED as we can, we’re reducing our energy consumption and cutting down on maintenance. The reason we’re doing the upgrades is for long-term cost saving.
The force isn’t as tech-savvy as I’d like
I think it’s getting there, but I think we as a force have to catch up, which we are with the new buildings. I’ve done one complete station in Rushdon with LED, a small one. We also opened a new building about 18 months ago that has a full control system everywhere and energy-efficient lighting, but they’re not LED fittings.
We used PL36s which are low energy and high frequency but not as efficient as LEDs. We have controls on the lights but the controls aren’t yet hooked up to the building management system. But now, any new building we do will have lighting controls.
Safety and security comes first
The work I do is quite unique, it’s different from a normal property manager because of the environment that I work in. I did one complete station with LED. We have to think about safety, and be sure before we install anything. You can’t have lights going on and off in custody areas, and we have to find different ways of making lights that have to be on all the time more efficient.
Cost has to be taken into account
Everything is financially driven, especially with budgets being cut the way they are. It constricts us considerably, but now that trials have been successful, it’s easier to put a case forward. Providing it’s not one of these projects where it’s given to a contractor and they’re asked to design and supply, we’ll have it done the way we want it – if we’ve got any input – and that means getting the best value for the public’s money.
I’m governed a lot by cost. I’m spending your money, I’m spending my money, I’m spending everybody’s money, so I’ve got to get the best value for the pound, and that’s what I’m looking for all the time. Value and reliability are important. If one lamp was £2 and one was £2.50 and I knew the more expensive one was better, I’d invest in that one.
Controls didn’t work well for us at first
We introduced controls a few years ago, primarily in corridors. Our old property manager was a bit old school. I wanted to put them in general public areas like corridors and toilets, but he wouldn’t let me put them in toilets. The main problem we had with those controls was that the old style lighting didn’t react fast enough if there was an emergency, if there’s a policeman running through the corridor because an alarm has sounded in the cells.
Lighting for the police has some unique requirements
The lighting inside the firing arms range is controlled by the building management system and is used to create different scenarios. You can make the lights flash on and off, and all sorts of strange things happen with the lighting to simulate different training environments. The day will come when we turn ordinary fluorescents to LED, but for the moment, we’re leaving that side of the business alone.
THE DETAILS
Terry Anderson manages energy across Northamptonshire Police, which employs 1,200 police officers and more than 1,000 other staff. The police authority has set a target of reducing the consumption of gas and electricity by five per cent year on year, and
Anderson works with new lighting technology to achieve this goal. With a large operational fleet of 414 vehicles, and a multitude of buildings, the authority has a large carbon footprint to cut down.
A policy of increasing the use of diesel has helped to cut down on carbon emissions, and now the authority is looking to achieve similar reductions in its buildings, including its headquarters (pictured).

LED Lighting – The Efficient Way of Saving Energy
Comments off · Posted by admin in LED, LED Candles, LED downlights, LED panels, LED Spots, LED Tubes
Having quality lighting is an important factor for many businesses. Many are turning towards LED as the best option to meet their lighting needs. LED or the light-emitting diode is an energy-efficient light source that provides light for a longer duration. It uses a semiconductor to produce light, and compared to incandescent lights, LED bulbs are much more energy-efficient. LED lights reduce energy consumption by 50% or more. The average life of these lights is 25,000 hours or more, which can be 25 times longer than any other type of lighting. In other words, these lights can be used for many years without failing. Another important fact is that LED bulbs emit much less heat than their incandescent equivalents. They can run up to 90% cooler, which helps with longevity, reduces fire risk, and also stops luminaire damage.
The LED was first invented by a GE employee named Nick Holonyak, Jr. in 1962. Thereafter, the technology gathered pace and costs reduced,making it an efficient solution for genera; lighting. Switching to LED lighting can decrease electricity consumption , and also significantly reduces carbon emission.
LED lighting is used almost everywhere, for instance, traffic lights, TVs, vehicle lights and display areas. There is a wide range of application of such lighting due to its exceptional characteristics. It is preferred more than any other lighting, because of its easy maintenance, compact size, breakage resistance, and controlability. LED’s do not have mercury, and therefore, do not have much of an impact on the environment. This lighting is more efficient than compact fluorescent lights or CFLs. Novel Energy Lighting exclusively provides LED lights like LED tubes, panels, downlights and LED spots to support nature and save energy efficiently.

Analysts Predict Strong Sales for LED GU10 Bulbs
Comments off · Posted by admin in LED, Uncategorized
Sales of LED bulbs are increasing this year, just as they have consistently in recent times as prices have fallen and more buyers have gained an appreciation for the benefits of this type of lighting technology.
Virtual Strategy Magazine reports that retail insiders predict that sales of LED GU10 bulbs and other competing products such as LED MR16 models will continue on an upward trajectory in terms of sales well into the future, if current trends continue.
The chief benefit of GU10 lamps and similar LED lighting solutions is that they consume much less energy than traditional bulbs and can even outdo products that are supposedly designed for efficiency.
LED lighting is increasing in importance both for commercial lighting purposes and in the domestic marketplace, with consumers becoming familiar with the options that are available to them. It has even got to the point that specialist retailers can emerge, dealing not only in LED lamps and associated solutions, but actually with specific products from within this wider marketplace.
Although LED bulbs are costlier than older lighting technologies, in the long run they can actually be a much better investment. With lower levels of energy consumption, they make less of an impact on utility bills, while the durability and longevity of the technology which they harness means that they require less maintenance. They will not need to be replaced as often as traditional bulbs.
Awareness and usage of LED lighting solutions could really explode if mainstream retailers and providers get behind the technology, enhancing its profile. They can then use the increased demand to drive down prices as adoption spreads.
GU10 LED units are already affordable and robust in their design, giving consumers plenty of reason to part with their money and experience the real benefits at first hand, which is always the best way to assess whether the claims are justified. And in 2013, it would be unwise to ignore the influence of LED lighting.
You can use this site to look into the LED lighting marketplace, with more information on everything from LED GU10 and LED MR16 lamps to specialist products such as LED tubes. Do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions that remain unanswered.
