What are the characteristics of fluorescent lamps? Introduction to the difference between fluorescent lamps and led lamps
Fluorescent lamp is a kind of lighting commonly used indoors today, and it is also called fluorescent lamp by many owners. It is brighter than usual incandescent lamps and has a strong decorative effect, so it is loved by many owners. The led lamp is also the lighting fixture that owners prefer to use. It does not have many mosquitoes around the light source like traditional lamps, so it makes the environment more clean and tidy. These two kinds of lamps are believed to be more exposed to led lamps, so what are the characteristics of fluorescent lamps? What are the differences between fluorescent lights and led lights? Don't worry, BENWEI will explain it to you, let's take a look.
What are the characteristics of fluorescent lamps?
1. High luminous efficiency
Usually the luminous efficiency of fluorescent lamps can reach 40-50lm/w, which is 3 to 5 times that of incandescent lamps, so it is more energy-saving and electricity-saving than our commonly used incandescent lamps.
2. Long service life
Fluorescent lamps also have a long service life. Its service life can reach 2000 to 9500 hours, while incandescent lamps usually only have a service life of 1000 hours. Therefore, the replacement cycle of fluorescent lamps is relatively long, which allows us to reduce a lot of trouble.
3. Soft light
Fluorescent lamps generate ultraviolet light through gas discharge, so that the fluorescent powder inside the tube emits visible light. Its light is softer than incandescent lamps and very similar to sunlight, so it is also called fluorescent lamp, and it also emits red, green, and blue. Wait for the light of different colors.
4. Bring good psychological effects
The light of a fluorescent lamp is a cold light source without any radiation, and usually does not have any effect on the indoor temperature. Therefore, if we use cool white fluorescent lights indoors in summer, it will give people a cool feeling. Using orange-yellow fluorescent lights indoors in winter will bring a feeling of warmth to the person, and thus bring people a good psychological effect.
Introduction to the difference between fluorescent lamps and led lamps
1. Luminescence principle.
Ordinary lamps are fluorescent lamps, and the light-emitting principle is different from that of LED lamps. The luminescence of fluorescent lamp is the moment when the ballast is energized, high voltage is generated, which excites the discharge between the two pins inside the lamp tube, and then excites the phosphor to emit light. This process generates high fever. LED luminescence is the electron migration inside the semiconductor, which produces luminescence, and the luminescence process does not generate heat.
2. Heat production.
Traditional fluorescent tubes generate a lot of heat energy, while LED fluorescent lamps convert all of them into light energy, which will not cause energy waste.
3. Service life.
The lifespan of LEDs can reach more than 50,000 hours (without power supply), and the lifespan of fluorescent tubes (without power supply) is only 10,000-20000 hours.
4. Light effect.
The LED tube has high luminous efficiency and high brightness. The luminous efficiency of a good LED fluorescent tube on the market can reach more than 130, which is about twice the luminous efficiency of fluorescent light. In other words, the 18W LED fluorescent lamp can be used as a 36W fluorescent lamp. From the actual lighting effect, the 18W LED lamp with 130lm/W can be used as a 48W fluorescent lamp.
The above is what are the characteristics of fluorescent lamps and the knowledge of the difference between fluorescent lamps and led lamps. Let me stop here. The content is for your reference only, and I hope it can be helpful to you.
