LED Lighting - COBs, Engines, Modules
Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting has been around since the early 1960s, but in recent years it has been adopted for a range of applications. The development of small, efficient and cost-effective LEDs has made them the preferred option for many businesses, homes and large-scale public projects. This is especially true with large scale projects where the cost savings from LEDs can be substantial.
One of the common types of LED lighting available are COB (Chip on Board) lights. COB LEDs consist of multiple semiconductor dies mounted onto a single chip, producing a higher light output than traditional lamps and bulbs. This allows manufacturers to create powerful, efficient and flexible lighting solutions in a very small form factor.
The SST-90-W57S-F11-GK201 is an example of a COB LED engine by Lumileds. It runs on 12V, has a maximum power output of 37 watts and a CRI of 90. It is designed to work in arrays of multiple LED light engines and can be used in luminaires such as wall-mounted downlights, high bay, street and post-top lights, and task lights, in both commercial and residential settings.
The SST-90-W57S-F11-GK201 LED engine works by providing a powerful and efficient light output, with each light engine producing up to 2,800 lumens. The light output is achieved through a combination of high efficiency (94%) and low thermal resistance. The single-chip design also keeps the package size to a minimum, making it ideal for applications with limited space. Additionally, the engine operates at a low voltage, which makes it safe and economical to install and operate, and increases the lifespan of the lamp.
The SST-90-W57S-F11-GK201 is an ideal replacement for traditional lighting sources, as it reduces energy costs and emits less heat than incandescent bulbs. In addition to being eco-friendly, it is also very durable, with an expected maximum lifespan of over 50,000 hours. This makes it a great choice for long-term projects or applications where lighting has to be changed or replaced infrequently.
In short, the SST-90-W57S-F11-GK201 LED engine is one of the most efficient and reliable LED light engines on the market. It provides a high light output with minimal power consumption, making it a cost-effective choice for clients looking to reduce energy bills while also taking steps to being environmentally friendly.
