How to deal with the problems encountered in the certification of LED fluorescent lamps and LED bulbs

    In North America, Europe, and Japan, some countries in the market of LED have given government subsidies. The demand for LED bulbs, LED fluorescent lamps and other products is obviously exposed, but its safety and environmental protection requirements are very strict.


    At the same time, the LED bulb testing standards in these countries are not well regulated and are changing (after all, is it a new industry?). Many companies are desperately striving to obtain UL and RoHS certifications in order to obtain business opportunities for brands and products. As a result, there are a lot of problems.

     Greatly reduce the business opportunities for Chinese people to enter this market. I want to tell everyone through this post that the problems that they have in UL, RoHS and other certifications will be published, so that the people can solve them together, so that everyone can pass UL certification and RoHS certification as soon as possible. Let Chinese people occupy those markets as quickly as possible, so as not to lose business opportunities and unnecessary waste of resources.


    ROHS certification scope of application


27 EU member states: France, Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, United Kingdom, Denmark, Ireland, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Cyprus, Hungary, Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta , Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Romania.


    RoHS is a mandatory standard established by EU legislation. Its full name is "Restriction of Hazardous Substances" (Restriction of Hazardous Substances). The standard has been officially implemented on July 1, 2006, and is mainly used to standardize the material and process standards of electronic and electrical products, making it more conducive to human health and environmental protection. The purpose of this standard is to eliminate six substances including lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers in electrical and electronic products, and emphasizes that the lead content should not exceed 0.1%. The main sources of lead involved are as follows.


    What I can mention is the LED lampshade,

1. The glass is easy to break. The LED bulb lamp shade is glass. If the glue is used for a long time, the glass shade will have safety hazards (dropping). If the product is sold abroad, it still needs to be protected, famous LED lighting manufacturers generally don't use glass anymore.

2. The common lampshades have the following problems:

   A. The light transmittance of the transparent PC and frosted lampshade is low (only 80-89%) and the defects of the LED point light source can be seen; (Lanter LED tube has been resolved)

   B. The light transmittance of transparent PC ribbed or Acrylic toner is low (only 80-89%) and the defects of LED point light source can be seen;

   In the Energy Star certification, there are clear LED lumens and no glare requirements, so the current LED lampshade has a big problem.

Give you a few suggestions:

1. Use PC light diffusion (increase LED lumen value)

2. Add coating with PMMA

3. The lampshade is rimmed, provided that you do not use LED point light sources, but use LED integrated light sources. (Single LED lamp bead should not be too bright)
