this efficiency can be further improved by using proximity switching to save power in low traffic areas

The company beat off stiff competition in the form of finalists Marl International, Osram and TT electronics OPTEK Technology to scoop the award for which solid state lighting products were judged on their performance, design flexibility and suitability for an application.

Dialight’s winning product, its 150W high brightness DuroSite™ Series LED High Bay is designed to replace conventional lights in high-ceilinged commercial and industrial applications, such as warehouses and manufacturing plants, as well as low traffic or extreme temperature environments like cold storage facilities. The LED High Bay outperforms 324W fluorescent, led high bay light and metal halide lighting sources using only 150W per fixture to deliver 11,600 lumens (77 l/w) while offering power savings of 50-60% and this efficiency can be further improved by using proximity switching to save power in low traffic areas. LED fixtures don’t require a warm-up period and can be operated as ‘instant-on’, reaching full light intensity in a fraction of a second, so users can save even more by powering down the lights when not needed or using motion control to avoid running them 24/7.

With its five-year continuous use warranty (80% lumen maintenance after 60,000 hours) and expected lifespan of ten+ years, Dialight’s LED High Bay needs zero maintenance, thereby avoiding annual replacement of traditional light fittings and the associated expensive downtime.

Consuming only 150W, the LED Linear high bay light also provides unparalleled level of quality overhead light, significantly reducing energy consumption, power and CO2 emissions. Altogether it’s tougher, more energy efficient, lower on carbon emissions and light pollution and can pay back in less than a year.
