Saving Lighting Energy

The design of any installation starts with a careful and knowledgeable decision about the choice of lamps. The benefitsof every lamp available are carefully weighed gainst the requirements of the site, the wishes of the client and any Statutory design requirements to make sure the correct lamp is used. In today's fast changing lighting market it is vital to maintain a broad knowledge of all the latest lamp technology that can provide performance and reliability with the benefits of Saving Lighting Energy. Typical commercial applications inevitably lean towards linear fluorescent lamps and the latest T5 slimline versions offer the end user huge savings in running costs when compared to other sizes, as well as improved performance and longer life. With the demise of T8 halophosphate lamps the benefits of Tri-phosphor are fast becoming the default lamp choice for many professionals. The comparison of all 4 lamp options shows the clear choice. |
Long-life (48,000 hours) T5 and T8 tubes are now available to LED replacement lamps cont inue to develop and improve so |
Modern, energy-efficient lamps need the latest micro-electronic technology to operate at their optimum efficiency. Warm-start, high-frequency (electronic) ballasts are the everyday solution. High frequency control gear is the de-facto option for anyone looking to balance performance with maximum efficiency in any lighting environment that involves fluorescent. The range of products and features can now be suited to just about every application and the cost is well within most viable payback scenarios. For warm-start, electronic ballasts the following features are standard > Savings of up to 20% over switch start systems |
Further savings are now much more realistic with the continued development of dimmable electronic ballasts. Tamlite can offer a wide range of DSI dimming ballasts that can enable manual or automatic dimming to realise further energy savings. Dimmable ballasts are now the same low-profile size as standard switched ballasts and can therefore be used in a wider range of luminaires and applications. Manual or automatic dimming can provide up to 30% savings over normal electronic switched ballasts. |
