LEDs optimized for long-life connected lighting systems
Connected lighting systems use information from occupancy sensors and other sources to continuously react to the target environment, dimming or switching off unneeded lights to conserve energy. On average, a connected lighting system will dim or switch off lights up to 10 times more often than with a standard lighting system.
These additional dimming and switching cycles put more stress on the LED system and can limit the luminaire’s lifetime, notes the manufacturer who claims its XLamp XP-G3 S Line LEDs can withstand double the number of switching cycles when compared to competing LEDs in its class.
Through innovations in component architecture, the S Line LED further improves the standard XP-G3 with better reliability through switching and dimming cycles, improved resistance to sulfur exposure and higher light output and efficacy.
