LEDs provides light distribution that meets street lighting requirements

With the two semiconductors working together, local governments have an opportunity to achieve significant cost savings.Apart from their long life, another benefit of LEDs for street lighting is their directed light. It shines precisely where it is required, so less LED Linear high bay light is needlessly scattered. Overall, less light has to be produced in order to illuminate the road properly. By additionally adjusting the luminaires with the aid of digital brightness sensors, electricity consumption is reduced even more in comparison with conventional lighting solutions and the LEDs’ operating life is increased at the same time.

The Arquicity design street luminaire is also characterised by the low installation work required, so conventional luminaires can be replaced without a problem. The compact luminaire head in combination with the optimised directional characteristics of OSRAM Opto Semiconductors’ LEDs provides light distribution that meets street lighting requirements. This also improves safety for road users.Rainer Friedrichs, Marketing Director at OSRAM Opto Semiconductors, explains, “More than 4,000 Arquicity lamps in various projects already provide proof of how efficient state-of-the-art street lighting can be. Intelligent light management is made possible by coordinating the interaction of light sources and sensors based on semiconductors.

Thanks to accelerating replacements for traditional lamps with LED lamps, Fan said the firm's sales in mainland China for the first half of this year kept the same level as recorded for the whole 2009.He made this conclusion mainly on the company's planned additional led high bay light by the end of this year. The company is now operating seven of the machines to make LED epitaxy wafers.
