Revenue Down Time

For some companies, it’s not only about the cost of changing lamps. What happens when revenue-generating machinery has to be shut down in order to replace the lamps above them? A large carpet manufacturer states that to change a lamp over one of their looms, they have to shut down the revenue-generating loom. When the electrical maintenance crew is doing that, they are not fixing broken looms, so lighting maintenance is not only a cost impact, but it reduces capacity utilization and revenue. In addition to the convention center and heavy manufacturing examples discussed above, there are several other commercial and industrial segments that face potentially high lighting maintenance costs.

Traditional Street Lights Reformation Program
Adopting new generation of LED lights to substitute traditional street lights is the best way which
makes the semi-conductor LED become an ideal green environmental protection lamp. With the advantage of high-efficiency, energy-saving, long life and green environmental protection, LED Lights accomplished the traditional street lamp reformation as a possibility.
1. The reformation program can save much maintenance expenses, the LED street light’s
life span is 5 times to High Pressure Sodium Lamp’s.
2. Saving much power charges. 70% above than High Pressure Sodium Lamp.
3. The yearly invest return rates is 25% above.

Today is an exciting time for the lighting industry as the benefits of LEDs provide significant solutions for design styles, configuration and concepts. With compact size, great efficiency and
long life, LED technology is viable from a performance and economic standpoint moving it into mainstream lighting applications. There are many opportunities for architects, lighting designers and engineers to make a building sustainable, attractive and meet an owner’s needs. For example, sustainable lighting that is seamlessly integrated with the design will add to the building’s aesthetics. Interaction among all building disciplines is required to achieve overarching building design goals. Early commitment and participation of these parties that extends throughout
all stages of the design process is necessary to optimize overall performance and sustainability. Demand for green buildings is being driven on multiple fronts. (more…)
