Lighting Science Group worked with Unique Lighting

On November 30th, 2011, Carmanah launched the anticipated EG40 and EG80 solar outdoor lighting systems. Offering a top-of-pole integrated design that eases installation and protects against vandalism, the led high bay light is designed to be the most robust and reliable solar powered lighting system on the market.

Lighting Science Group announced today that the company's LED bulbs have been used to light the Dallas Arboretum's newly christened Nancy Rutchik Red Maple Rill. The 2 acre rill features a collection of over 80 varieties of 200 signature Japanese Maples along the periphery of a circulating brook and winding pedestrian pathway. As opposed to R40 175W mercury vapor lamps that would have required ballast boxes to be mounted to trees, Lighting Science Group worked with Unique Lighting of Texas to illuminate the area with its ultra-efficient PAR30 LED bulbs.

"While the gardens are beautiful during the day, at night the lighting is so wonderful it makes you feel as though you are in a magical land," said Nancy Rutchik, commissioner and funder of the maple grounds.  "Visitors who came out for the opening keep coming back to see the Red Maple Rill lit during the evening." The Red Maple Rill is lit up at night during the Arboretum's Concert in the Garden series as it is the main path to the Martin Rutchik Concert Stage & Lawn and for various after hour's events and wedding receptions.

Semiconductor lighting industry in Shenzhen develops rapidly in recent years

Orion’s LED fixture, designed to perform at temperatures as low as -20 degrees Fahrenheit, has been retrofitted in more than 3 million square feet of freezer and cold-storage space in facilities across the nation in the past several months. Companies with Orion LED technology in their facilities include US Foods, Sysco, Americold, and Save-A-Lot. The three approved Orion LED fixture models vary based on application-specific lens configuration. Orion’s LED fixtures are designed to replace traditional high intensity discharge and T8 and T5 fluorescent fixtures. Orion’s LED fixtures use 123 watts compared to 400-watt HIDs and 298-watt fluorescents. According to its Web site, the DLC is a collaboration of utility companies and regional energy efficiency organizations committed to raising awareness of the benefits of efficient lighting in commercial buildings. In order to be included on the DLC’s QPL, a product must meet or exceed specific industry standards. QPL inclusion is required for c...

This closes a gap with the very large goniometers

In addition, Shih said that the requirement will be more flexible than the existing ceiling of 10% stake owned by Chinese investors in existing enterprises and stricter than the 50% ceiling in new joint ventures.The third-wave mainland Chinese investments have been approved by Taiwan Executive Yuan (the Cabinet) and are scheduled to take effect by the end of March. The LGS 250 was developed specifically for the analysis of angle-dependent spatial radiation properties from small to medium-sized SSL luminaires, lamps and LED modules. This closes a gap with the very large goniometers. The horizontal alignment of the Type C coordinate system facilitates a particularly convenient and compact test setup for the system. Measurements can be taken in a range of +/- 160° in the forward direction of the test specimen which may have a maximum diameter of up to 480 mm and a maximum weight of 8 kg. Combined with a spectroradiometer from Instrument Systems, all spectral quantities such as color coord...
