Led Lighting

What does CRI mean?

The color rendering of lamps is sometimes displayed in a so-called CRI index. The number of Ra indicates how light colors are perceived by people. A low CRI index means that the light is not easily detectable and a high number of Ra (more than 80) means that the light is clearly visible.

What is the beam angle?

The beam angle indicates the extent to which the light from the lamp shining in width. This can differ from a narrow light angle of, for example, 30 degrees to a wide light angle of, for example, 180 degrees. A narrow beam angle is used to illuminate a small area and for a larger area you can better choose a lamp with a wide beam angle.

What is SMD?

Nowadays you see more and more lamps and spots with those flat LEDs, which are the SMD LEDs. The SMD LED comes in different types: the 3528SMD and the 5050SMD. The last SMD is larger and therefore provides a higher light output. These LEDs are also used for making lightbox LED modules.

What are High Power LEDs?

As many people had become sceptical about LED lighting, they had to look for a way to get more power from the LEDs. That is when so-called High Power LEDs were developed, which could have up to ten times more power than Low Power LEDs.

Which clips are available?

Exposupply thinks along with its customers and has designed several clips by special request. In the product catalogue on this site, you will find all available clips that can be used for all our display spots.

Which display spotlight is suitable for which height?

The META 25 is suitable for a height of 2-2.5 meters; The LUMI 30 is suitable for a height of 2.5-3 meters; The NOVI 50 is suitable for a height of 3-5 meters; The NOVI 70 is suitable for a height of 4-6 meters

What is the difference between Lumen and Lux?

The terms Lumen and Lux are regularly used interchangeably. The EU has issued a directive stating that all lighting must display the amount of Lumen, which indicates how much light comes out of a lamp. This applies to both LED and incandescent lamps, halogen lighting and HQI lamps. By extension, Lux is the unit used to indicate how much light falls on a surface (standard 1 m²) at a certain distance (standard 1 m).

What are the current developments in the field of LED?

More and more private individuals are now also switching to LED lighting. This is because the LEDs become increasingly powerful and better light colors are also possible. At the beginning of the introduction of LED lighting in the Netherlands, people were very skeptical. Meanwhile, however, there are LED lights with an ‘extra warm’ light color on the market so that you can match the light of the traditional light bulbs. In addition, LED lighting is becoming cheaper because it is used more. Many companies therefore also switch entirely to LED lighting. The government encourages this transition by allowing companies to deduct part of the purchase amount from the tax. It is expected that all lamps in the future will be equipped with LED lighting.

What were the first applications of LED lighting?

The first applications of LED date back to the 1970s. At that time, the first LEDs were used as indicators in remote controls, for example. Later, LED was also soon used for traffic lights. The next step was to put LED lights in flashlights and lights for bicycles. Today, many streetlights are also fitted with LED lighting. The beauty of the LED is that you can also give all those little LEDs a different color, making RGB lighting possible.

When was LED invented?

It is not known exactly when the LED was invented exactly. We do know that the Russian Professor Oleg Losev during the years 20 of the last century the first discoveries and tests did with LED lighting. Although he himself was convinced of the operation of the LED lamp, the new light source received little attention. It was not until the 1960s that people really continued to apply the LED lamp. In 1962, Nick Holonyak was able to manufacture the first working LED.

What exactly is LED?

The abbreviation LED stands for the English ”Light Emitting Diode”. This literally means a light-emitting diode. A diode is an electronic component. Usually this component is placed in a very small casing so that the light is better displayed and the LED itself does not break down. Although the abbreviation is LED, the Dutch language union has decided that the word is so common that it can also be written in small letters.

What is Kelvin (color temperature-light color)?

The light color is always indicated with a certain color temperature, for this the unit ´Kelvin´ is used. A warm light color has a low number of Kelvin, for example 2300K. A warm white light color slightly higher, 3000K. A cold (almost blue) light color is usually 5000-6500 Kelvin.
