Spacing

Ensuring the spacing of your lighting is exact is vital when it comes to the design of your lighting fixture. The right spacing ensures the appropriate quantity of lighting for the chosen area and its purpose. Not to mention your company will intern equally benefit by improved aesthetics to your workspace.

When lights are too close together you can end up having surplus light so getting the right distance of spacing between your LED’s is important to get the maximum efficiency. For instance, making sure your lights are correctly spaced out could not only save you money because you'll need less led’s in your selected area but you also don’t run the risk of paying more than you need to because your design correctly matches to the number of led’s that are required.

Lighting In A League Of Its Own

Bringing The Future Right To You

Brightness and Intensity

If you're paying top of the range prices for a product you expect top of range brightness and intensity out of your lights. Right? Philips LED’s exceed every lighting expectation out there bringing you a safer, smarter and more seamless lighting system that provides you with higher efficiency levels and intensity than Incandescent bulbs do. Just by comparing the lumen output of LED bulbs next to standard lights it speaks for itself. In a place of work, this is something that separates the lights that merely do the job from the lighting fixtures that go above and beyond to create a noticeably brighter and better workplace.

Color Range

Unlike Incandescent bulbs that are aided by filters and gels. LED lights need no gels or filters to produce different colors and temperatures because it’s the diode itself that is adapted to release these colors. Whereas incandescent lights don’t operate this way. This, in turn, means that because the incandescent bulb isn't generating different colors and its instead the filter or gel giving you this, over a period of time the color your seeing can fade and no longer look as it did when first purchased. The difference with LED's? LED’s continue to deliver different colors and temperatures for the entirety of its life without fade.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do LED Lights Save Money?

LED’s are a lot more energy efficient because they don’t require nearly as much wattage as fluorescent and descendent bulbs do. This means they can save you a fortune every month and prevent you from shelling out ridiculous amounts of money on constant repairs and replacements. Because LEDs have a far longer lifespan than standard lights which means you won't need to replace your lighting system for a much longer period of time so it’ll cost you a lot less than it would be deciding to purchase non- led’s and then having to keep shelling out unnecessary every 3 years for bulb replacements.

Are LED Lights Environmentally Friendly?

LED lights can be up to 85% efficient than normal lights. This is because LED lights convert the majority of what they produce into light and only a small percentage of around 6% is maintained as heat. This is a lot healthier for our environment because it means less harmful emissions are being released into the atmosphere, minimising the chances of global warming rises. LED lights generate light focusing in one particular direction meaning their level of brightness is significantly higher than normal lights which focus their lights in multiple different directions and therefore waste more energy than LED’S. LED lights last longer, and the longer the lights lifespan the less Co2 produced into the environment. Overall LED lights are a lot more beneficial for the planet than incandescent and fluorescent lights are.

Are LED Lights Beneficial For Engineering Purposes?

LED’s in Engineering companies are getting more and more popular due to the amount of savings generated simply from switching to LED’s. As well as this maintenance costs are less with LED’s because of their robust design and in a company full of lighting having the ability to not keep paying out for maintenance and repairs could save you a fortune. LED’s make sense for any engineering company looking to cut down costs and grow their business aided by maximum lighting efficiency.

Do LED's Burn out?

Of course, just like any other light led’s do eventually burn out. However, unlike other lighting products that burn out instantly LED’s don’t suddenly burn out, instead they slowly get dimmer over a long period of time. However, all lights exhaust themselves in the end due to the constant condition of heat they’re under. However, all it means is the amount of time led’s will last before breaking will be significantly longer than the amount of time it will be before incandescent or fluorescent bulbs burn out.

What Are The Benefits Of Upgrading To LED Bulbs?

Upgrading your standard lights to led bulbs have many benefits including the environmental positives as well as the financial gains it brings. LED’s ensure effective lighting with top- quality intensity and an increase in productivity. They produce far less energy which means that the number of greenhouse emissions released into the atmosphere is significantly reduced. With global warming constantly rising at an increasing rate you couldn’t pick a better time to purchase a new led lighting system. Led’s are drastically helping to change the pollution we are facing every day, having your own led lighting system gives you the freedom to make an environmental impact as well as show your customers you not only support the battle to stop global warming but that you're taking a stand and becoming a part of it.

How Do LED’s Work?

LED’s work by acting as a semiconductor in order to let out light. A current pass through the semiconductor and energy is then released and converted into light. This is the process behind what you see.

Can You Get LED Lights With Dimmable Controls?

Not all LED Lights have the option for dimming controls. If you're looking for LED's with exactly this, you'll need to ensure the lights you choose have the capability to dim properly. Getting LED's without this option means you won’t get the same effect you would with specially designed lights that have this built-in function. Trying to dim a bulb that isn’t made for this purpose could not only fail to work but could also result in the bulb being destroyed.

Choosing The Right Lighting For Your Project

Understanding what LED fitting you require when upgrading existing lights is important. Is the light level sufficient at the moment? Is the colour temperature (whiteness compared to daylight) correct? It is not just about the power as the more efficient light sources will have a higher lumen per watt output, so the wattage is not a level of brightness. Instead, light output is measured in lumens, the higher the lumens the brighter your light will be. It is usually worth having a lighting design undertaken and a free consultation with one of our experts.

Although LEDs, are still more expensive than the traditional lights try not to be put off by the upfront cost. Respected manufacturers will warrant their lights for 5 years or 50,000 hours, and the expected lifespan of these fittings is far beyond this. Up to 75% electricity savings can be achieved, meaning that there is a strong financial case for upgrading to LED. Commercial installations can factor in the cost of reduced maintenance requirements and the cost of replacement lamps.

Return on Investment: ,Your investment can be paid back in less than two years in some cases. With a fully fitted solution from Empower, you can realise the true ROI and not just the cost of the light fittings themselves. The more hours per year the lights are used, the quicker the payback. Financing Your Project: , Empower are Carbon Trust accredited suppliers with grants available for LED projects within the commercial sectors, and finance through our gold partnership with Siemens financial services. Philips capital solutions are also available. Capital expenditure, dependant on size of the project can be a deciding factor for organisations considering projects such as these. Leasing or financing options work on financing the project costs and the electricity savings covering the loan repayments.
