In a lighting survey activity, when asked about the proportion of the lighting, construction and maintenance costs of the company in the outdoor lighting project, the survey results showed that the maintenance cost accounted for about 8%-15% of the total cost. The main reason is that the surface of the light source is degraded and the protection level is reduced under the influence of outdoor environmental conditions, which leads to the failure of the lamp, and the lamp needs to be cleaned or replaced frequently.

So, how to ensure the long-term reliability of outdoor lamps and triproof LED lights, effectively extend the service life and reduce maintenance costs?

Key: High-quality waterproof and breathable valves are essential to improve the long-term reliability of outdoor lighting

The inability to quickly and effectively balance the internal and external pressure difference is the key reason for the failure of triproof light fixtures. If the pressure difference cannot be effectively released, it will continue to stress on the sealing ring of the lamp housing, which will cause the sealing to fail, causing contaminants to finally enter the housing and cause failure. As a result, the difficulty and cost of daily maintenance of the lamp, the frequency and cost of related cleaning or component replacement will be greatly increased, causing the maintenance cost to exceed the planned level and causing budget overruns.

Measures: Let the lamps "breathe" easily, and use high-quality waterproof and breathable valves to meet outdoor challenges

In order to ensure that the lamps work stably in the extreme outdoor environment, installing a waterproof, dust-proof and breathable valve on the lamp housing has become the first choice of many outdoor lighting companies. Its main purpose is to quickly balance the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the lamp, prevent water, dust, oil or corrosive pollutants from entering the lamp, and ensure the normal operation of the lamp, which is called the "respirator" of the lamp by the industry.

Under normal circumstances, the use of the breather valve can prolong the life of the lamp by 1 to 4 years. It can be seen that the meaning of the breather valve to the lamp is just like the breathing organ to the person, playing an indispensable role. It plays an important role in extending the service life of lamps.

Demand: air permeability, waterproof performance, and salt spray resistance are the first three factors for lighting companies to choose breathable valves

The triproof lamp equipped with a high-quality breathable valve can not only provide a higher level of protection for itself, but also ensure the maximum performance of its own performance while ensuring product safety.

 

A high-quality breather valve can provide good breathability for the outer shell of triproof lighting fixtures exposed to extreme external environmental conditions, ensure the long-term stability of the lamp, and extend the service life of the lamp. Maintaining the protection level, brightness and reliability of the lamps can reduce the frequency of lamp replacement and daily maintenance problems to a certain extent, thereby effectively reducing the total cost of ownership of indoor and outdoor lighting projects.
