Let LED really go to the home street contest contest cited concern

In July 7th the opening of the New International Expo Center "Chinese (Shanghai) International LED industrial technology exhibition, the Organizing Committee launched the" LED street competitions "attracted a lot of attention, 38 companies from across the 72 LED lights in the collective appearance, light effect, color, uniformity and other technical parameters to compete. The game is one of the preparations to try to develop LED technical standards in Shanghai, LED technology into the homes of ordinary people really lay the foundation.

In the judge judges, from electric power bureau, the relevant person in charge of the street with interest is seriously "". As non-technical people, their selection criteria are practical: the appearance of simple, simple structure, easy maintenance, inconvenient bird nesting.

As a new type of solid-state light source, semiconductor lighting (LED) has been used in more and more fields. For example, alternative neon lighting, can save energy 70%, LED traffic lights can save energy by 80%. However, the industry is not without worries that the LED industry in recent years, the rapid development, but still lack of authoritative technical standards, resulting in the industry as a whole, good and bad, for a wide range of promotion is very unfavorable.

In the relatively high degree of technical difficulty in the LED street lamp, the lack of technical standards is particularly evident. According to statistics, there are about 500 thousand street lamps in Shanghai, of which about 350 thousand urban areas, the use of semiconductor lighting, currently only a small section of Wuning road demonstration. Many LED manufacturers and integrators of excellent technology, do not know how to design a practical street lamp, the application can not clear the specific requirements of the department. Shanghai semiconductor lighting engineering and technology research center, for example, many manufacturers in order to solve the problem of LED heat dissipation, the design of a hollow type lampshade. But for street lamps, this style of "rain" function is not suitable for street lamps. Organizers hope that through the LED street lamp PK, looking for the appropriate technical indicators and design, and then to develop the relevant technical standards for the entire LED industry pathfinder.
