Linsheng Stressed The Attention Of Led Fluorescent Tubes: 5 Things
linsheng reminded that when using LED fluorescent tubes, pay attention to the following matters:
1. Installation: The LED comes with a constant current source and does not require a ballast or starter. Generally, the lamp above T8 is because the lamp space is large enough, and the constant current source can be installed inside the lamp. Therefore, during installation, the ballast and starter in the original bracket can be removed, and the lamp can be directly installed.
T5, T4LED fluorescent lamps because the lamp is very small, can not put a constant current source, can only install the constant current source in the bracket, so the general manufacturer will configure the bracket when doing T4\T5, the bracket is equipped with constant current source, Also, the lamp is directional when installed. The direction is reversed and the lamp is not lit.
2. Voltage: Although the fluorescent lamp has a wide voltage adaptability, it can work normally for AC 85V–AC 245V. However, if the long-term voltage is too high or too low, it will affect the power factor of the constant current source, which means that it will have a slight impact on the energy-saving effect. At the same time, it will also affect the life of the constant current source. Therefore, it is generally necessary to use a suitable fluorescent tube. For example, if the mains is 110V, you should use a specially designed 110-city fluorescent tube.
3. Heat dissipation: The fluorescent lamp is equipped with a heat-dissipating shell made of aluminum. Under normal circumstances, there is no problem with heat dissipation. However, if it is used in places with heavy dust, it should be regularly dusted to prevent dust from covering the radiator and affecting heat dissipation.
4, waterproof: LED fluorescent lamp because the lamp is composed of two parts: the upper part is the aluminum radiator, the lower part is the soft cover, there is a gap at the joint, so to prevent the entry of soot and water vapor. If it is used in places where smoke and water vapor are heavy, it is recommended to add a protective cover. A general protective cover is fine.
5. Vibration: LED fluorescent lamps have strong anti-vibration ability. As long as it is not a violent shock, it will generally not cause damage. However, it may affect the soft board. The traditional fluorescent lamp is glass, and the inside is close to the vacuum. The vibration may cause an explosion, especially the vibration.
