LED panels

In the market of modern lighting products, there are more and more alternatives to traditional light sources, LED lighting devices. LED lighting is more economical in terms of energy consumption, more durable, much safer and simply more modern, in addition, it does not require special disposal methods if necessary, as is the case for example with compact fluorescent lamps. containing mercury in flasks. And it is not surprising that the number of users of LED lighting products is constantly growing.

Large lighting fixtures such as LED panels can now be found in many places. These are lighting of classrooms, offices, entertainment centers and sports facilities, lighting of industrial and warehouse premises, etc.

LED panels have also found application as elements of advertising structures, such as advertising panels, which were previously rare. Now many neon signs give way to LED panels of different colors, sizes and shapes.

According to their design, LED panels are of two types.If we talk about panels that can be seen as advertising signs on the streets of a night city, then here the LEDs are located as display pixels, covering the surface of the screen and provide an opportunity to create both a monolithic background of a certain color and the desired picture through multi-colored diodes or a dynamic installation can be realized thanks to RGB diodes.

Each RGB diode is controlled by a separate circuit, so it is possible to create design solutions of any complexity. Here the quality of the image depends on the density and number of pixels (diodes) in the project, respectively, the more pixels and the smaller the distance between them, the better the effects.

The second type of LED panels is ceiling lighting panels... Such panels, in particular, replace outdated fluorescent office lamps, traditionally found almost everywhere. Among modern architects and designers, such panels are in great demand not only due to favorable technical characteristics, but also for aesthetic reasons.

The service life of such lamps reaches 20 years, while the emitted light can be both warm and cold, without flickering unpleasantly for the eyes, and there is absolutely no ultraviolet light.

LED ceiling panels are very thin due to their design and can usually be installed in rooms where the ceilings are not very high. Installation is possible both on suspended and suspended ceilings and even on a wall, while the heating will be very, very weak. Unlike other solutions, it is also possible to adjust the light flux without installing complex equipment.

The design of a ceiling LED panel differs from a conventional ceiling lamp.First of all, it is worth noting that the LEDs can be located in such a panel in different ways. The most pleasant diffused light is provided by LED ceiling lamps, in which the LED strip is laid along the perimeter.

The body of such a panel is usually made of aluminum, which serves as a radiator for the LEDs. The light from the diodes is directed to the end side of a laser-cut lens, through which it hits a reflective film located above the lens, and is reflected perpendicularly downwards, passing through the diffuser. This gives an even distribution of the light flux on the surface of the lighting body (panel).

Some factories release a substitute traditional fluorescent lampswithout resorting to tricks like a special lens, but simply placing the LED strips in the same way as the fluorescent lamps were placed in the old, technologically outdated versions. This does not give a soft dispersion, but it is also some alternative.

Despite the novelty among other LED technologies, LED panels have a lot of promise. They allow you to save energy by half compared to mercury lamps. Thanks to the prismatic design, the brightness is also increased many times over. This is the right way to qualitatively modernize lighting systems for both apartments and public buildings.

Such a panel with dimensions of 600 by 600 millimeters can be easily installed in the ceiling and with a consumption of 40 watts gives a luminous flux of 3400 lumens, which allows you to reduce the number of installed light sources and not worry about safety and ecology for a long time at least 10 years old. Only after 10-20 years, the LED device may require preventive diagnostics.Experts have already recognized that LED ceiling panels are the optimal solution for office and commercial spaces, they provide maximum energy efficiency and comfort for people.
