TORRANCE, Calif., Jan. 23, 2014 — LEDtronics introduces a series of dimmable modular LED streetlights that are ETL listed and RoHS compliant. The new Series SLM00 Modular LED streetlight fixtures are dimmable from 15% to 100% of maximum brightness, support input voltages from 120 to 277 VAC, and conform to IESNA Type III pattern, providing full cutoff.
The modular streetlights are available in 5000 Kelvin pure white LED light color. White LED boasts a lifespan of over 50,000 hours and lumen maintenance of over 70%. That makes them excellent replacements for street and highway lighting, parking lots, driveway and walkway lighting. In addition, these units may also be used for area flood lighting, parks/playgrounds, billboard lighting, construction-site lighting, and tennis court/stadium lighting.
The modular LED streetlights also eliminate the unwanted glare, light trespass, energy waste and sky glow that accompany traditional incandescent street lamps. An estimated 30% of outdoor light generated in the U.S. goes into space, flooding the skies and creating electric haze that reduces stargazing. LED streetlights shine light in the direction where it is needed – at ground level, reducing the amount of light that is lost to the sky and improving overall nighttime viewing. The LEDtronics modular SLM00 series meet IES street lighting standards.
The modular LED streetlight fixtures offer energy savings up to 75% and are available in the following wattage configurations: 65 watts can replace up to 150-watt MH / HPS lighting, 95W can replace up to 200W, 125W can replace up to 320W, 155W can replace up to 400W, 190W can exceed 400W replacement, 220W can exceed 400W replacement, 250W can exceed 400W replacement, 280W can exceed 400 watt replacement, and 310W can replace up to 1000W.
Lumen output ranges from 5,076 to 25,500 lm, depending on wattage configuration.
Solid-state design renders LEDs impervious to electrical and mechanical shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. With an average life span of 50,000-plus hours, white LEDs operate reliably year after year and are virtually maintenance free.
Torrance, Calif., January 16, 2014 – Today, the LED lighting experts at LEDtronics®, Inc., www.LEDtronics.com, announced that their LED Cobraheads Streetlight Fixtures helped NRG reduce energy consumption by over 72% and decrease light pollution in the local area.
LED Lights Reduce Energy Consumption by over 72%.
When the NRG power plant in El Segundo, Calif., was redesigned, two towers were demolished which caused extensive light from the plant to bother local neighbors. In an effort to get rid of this light pollution and update old, lighting fixtures at the same time, NRG turned to LEDtronics, Inc. for assistance.
“We faced an unexpected challenge when a large amount of new light was pouring into the homes of local residents after our demolition process,” states Jason Luehsenhop, Morrow-Meadows Corporation Senior Project Manager for the NRG LED lighting updates. “LEDtronics supplied us with street lights that reduced the light pollution immediately. In addition, we reduced energy consumption when our old lights that consumed 300 watts were replaced with these energy-efficient LEDs using only 82 watts.”
LED streetlights eliminate the unwanted glare, light trespass, energy waste, and sky glow that accompany traditional, incandescent street lamps.
“An estimated 30% of outdoor light generated in the U.S. goes into space, flooding the skies and creating electric haze that reduces stargazing,” states Mark Jarel, LEDtronics’ Street and Outdoor Lighting Produces Sales Manager. “LED streetlights shine light in the direction where it is needed, at ground level, reducing the amount of light that is lost to the sky and improving overall nighttime viewing, making them dark sky friendly.”
With this in mind, LEDtronics, the pioneers of solid-state, LED lighting design and manufacturing in the United States, provided NRG with eco-friendly, RoHS compliant, LED Street Lights (Cobrahead, Full Cutoff), Style M400 part number SLL002P-72X2W-XPW-004 fixtures.
With low power usage of only 82 watts, these solid-state LED lights:
"Over 58 LED Cobrahead Street light fixtures were installed on the perimeter
of the NRG facility, and more will be added as the ongoing redesign continues," states
Jarel. "By updating their old street lights with Long Life, Energy Saving
LED Street Lights, we are helping NRG significantly reduce energy consumption,
maintenance costs and light pollution while increasing sustainability and providing
a safe and attractive facility for workers and the local community."
