7.5 Reasons why an LED Lighting Upgrade is a…NO BRAINER
1) High Efficiency
Energy efficiency is most often the primary driver in an LED lighting conversion for auto manufacturers.
The most advanced, high-efficiency LED fixtures can deliver energy savings, cutting consumption by more than 60% per fixture while meeting light levels of conventional HID (high intensity discharge) systems.
The result: brighter, better quality light at less than half the cost for energy consumption. Money saved on lighting energy can be reallocated toward other capital investments.
2) Responsible Option
Environmental friendliness stands out as a priority for automakers.
With the push toward putting more high-performance electric cars on the market,
automakers are under especially high pressure to ensure the manufacturing process is just as sustainable as the vehicles they produce.
By virtue of the dramatic cut in electrical consumption, converting to LED lights can slash carbon emissions, eliminating the production of thousands of tons greenhouse gasses. Plus, with LEDs, there are no harmful materials to dispose of on a routine basis, as it the case with certain HID systems. This enables manufacturers to operate much greener, with a smaller environmental footprint, to meet sustainability goals.
3) Reliability
Unlike conventional lighting, which relies on delicate filaments that are prone to failure in harsh environments, LEDs are solid-state devices which can tolerate high-vibration and impact. They can also withstand higher ambient temperatures without overheating and with no catastrophic failures. The highest quality LED fixtures are also fully sealed units, which means they’re dust and moisture resistant. And, for hazardous location applications—such as paint spray booths and other areas where volatile materials may be used or stored—there are plenty of hazloc certified options for reliable, safe illumination. Because of their superior durability, LED fixtures are a smarter long-term solution—the investment you make today will deliver outstanding performance for up to a decade or more.
4) Zero-maintenance
The best LED fixtures are completely maintenance free for years of performance.
That means no more bulb changes, purchasing and storing of new bulbs and ballasts, and no more downtime to accommodate safe lighting maintenance near production equipment or in tough-to-reach locations. Not only does this save a tremendous amount of time and money, it also frees up maintenance staff for more mission-critical projects besides changing bulbs
5) Superior Visibility
LEDs offer outstanding colour quality, visibility and safety. The clear light emitted by LEDs is superior in color rendering than virtually every other conventional light source, especially the dingy orange glow of high-pressure sodium. This not only enhances visibility in areas where quality assurance, tight tolerances and color matching is required, but also improves safety by ensuring workers can in fact interpret colors accurately, such as on wiring, warning signage and other color-coded situations. Plus, the light emitted by LEDs is far more vibrant, which helps to keep workers more alert on the job, for improved safety and fewer weary-induced accidents.
