How to choose the right LED panel light?
Apr 27, 2022
With the popularity of LED lamps and lanterns, LED panel lights have become one of the indispensable lamps and lanterns for indoor lighting. The following RINA TECH will take you to understand the basic knowledge of the panel light, learn the panel light purchase skills.
LED panel light has good uniformity of illumination, high color rendering index, soft and comfortable light. It is one of the common lighting fixtures for office lighting, school lighting, hospital lighting, shopping mall lighting and home lighting.
First of all, LED panels have different classifications according to the lighting function and requirements. When choosing panel lights, you must choose according to the lighting requirements of the lighting place.
How to choose the right LED panel light?
Choose according to shape.
LED panel lights can be divided into square, rectangular, round, outside inside round, etc. Different environments should choose different sizes of panel lights, such as rectangular room, it is appropriate to use rectangular panel lights, can choose round panel lights comfortable room.
According to the size of the choice.
300mmx300mm, 300mmx600mm, 300mmx1200mm, 600mmx600mm, etc. If the space is small, you can choose a smaller panel light, if the space is larger, you can choose a larger.
Choose according to color temperature.
Warm white light 3200K, natural light 4000K, white light 6000K. Warm white and natural light will give people a warm and comfortable feeling, suitable for hotels, hotels and bedrooms. For places with strong lighting function, you can choose positive white light, such as office space.
Choose according to the installation method.
There are mainly flat type (T-shaped keel), embedded (open type), buckle type (triangle keel), hanging type and ceiling type.
According to the luminous way to choose.
There are mainly two types of side light-emitting LED panel lights and back light-emitting LED panel lights (straight down type).
According to the dimming selection.
Mainly including ordinary non-dimmable and dimmable LED panel lights, dimmable LED panel lights, dimmable and dimmable LED panel lights. Dimming dimming means adjusting the brightness and color of the LED panel light. Choose according to lighting needs.
Choose according to the intelligent function.
There are non-intelligent LED panel lights and intelligent LED panel lights. You can choose intelligent LED panel light if you have high requirements for panel light control.
After choosing the type of LED panel, we also need to observe the specific parameters of the LED panel light.
About the chip.
The chip is the core luminous component of the LED light, and the luminous efficiency and color rendering index of different brands are different. Therefore, when buying, pay attention to the quality of the chip. A good chip not only has a long service life, but also has a higher luminous efficiency and color rendering index, and is used in a wider range of applications.
About luminous flux.
Luminous flux generally refers to the brightness. Different environments and different areas need different light. When choosing lamps and lanterns, we should combine the lighting environment, refer to the luminous flux index of the product, or pay attention to the brightness of the light, try to choose enough brightness but not harsh lamps and lanterns.
About color rendering index.
Look at the color rendering index is to see the true extent of the color of the object in the light. The value is generally 0-100. now the color rendering index of LED lights is greater than 75, it is recommended to choose more than 80.
On flicker or non-flicker.
Observe whether the LED lights flicker, flickering lights can affect vision. Flickering is a difficult problem to observe with the naked eye. You can use your phone to take a picture of the LED panel light. Add gray and white "stripes" to the photo to indicate strobe. If it does not appear, it is non-flickering.
Regarding uniformity.
Look at the uniformity is to see the LED panel light luminous uniformity. General luminous uniformity needs to be > 75, the higher the uniformity the better.
On the light decay.
LED light decay refers to LED light after a period of time, its luminous intensity will be lower than the original luminous intensity, the lower part is the LED light decay. The smaller the light decay, the better the performance of the LED panel light!
