August 12, 2009... Test facility in F?rth demonstrates the future of street lighting with OSRAM LEDs
A total of six lamps with the latest LED technology from OSRAM demonstrate street lighting of the future in F?rth near Nuremberg, Germany. The city?s traffic and energy supply company infra f?rth GmbH, luminaire manufacturer Schr殇er and lighting manufacturer OSRAM have set up an LED test unit on the road to the airport to provide information about the diodes? performance in street lighting. The result of this practical test will help in deciding whether to use more LED luminaires in the Franconian town.
Light diodes, better known as LEDs (light emitting diodes) will find their way into every area of ​​everyday life in the near future and play a significant role in lighting. Among the reasons for this are their energy efficiency and resilience. A street lighting test facility with LED technology has now been set up in F?rth. Half a dozen luminaires have been installed on the road to the airport in the town? s north and will provide an insight into the street lighting of tomorrow.
Schr殇er ? the world market leader in outdoor lighting ? has designed and constructed for F?rth?s traffic and energy supply company infra f?rth GmbH six LED lamps of the P 186 type, in which OSRAM light diodes have been fitted. The total design of the LED luminaires looks different from the conventional ones even during At night, when the 96 individual light sources cast their brilliant white light, the difference from familiar streetlights becomes even clearer.
More brilliant light for local authoritiesEven though the light yield in the test luminaires at around 75 lumens per watt corresponds to that of a conventional street light, it makes a much brighter impression. Because of the directional characteristics of LED there is less stray light than with The addition of the light through special photos without redirecting it straight on to the ground. In addition, the white light they shed is perceived as far more luminous than normal street lights.
As LEDs can generally be used in colour versions too, they give local governments completely new options in cityscape design. Buildings, squares and streets can be lit more distinctly. With nuanced colour schemes any area of ​​town can have its own atmosphere.
Another advantage is that LEDs have a much longer operating life than high-pressure discharge lamps. Shocks have no effect on their output or lifespan. As such, LEDs are also better protected from vandalism. For local government this means lower costs for street lighting maintenance And repair.
A project with a futureThe test facility is intended to provide information about how suitable the new diode technology is for practical use in urban areas today. The systems? temperature and efficiency readings are under constant observation. It is clear that LEDs have already attained and to In some few, even more than efficient energy, can, .
Infra f?rth GmbH expects to gain experience from the project of the ability to utilise the technology in future as well as knowledge about operational procedures and the energy and operating costs of LED luminaires. ?We?re happy that Schr殇er has implemented this Innovative pilot project together with OSRAM in F?rth. The findings we obtain from this will certainly help us decide on further possible applications?, says Elmar Eckl, in charge of street lighting at infra f?rth GmbH. ?LEDs are considered the lamps As an innovative service provider it is a given that we?re going to investigate the potential of any future technologies. We also would like to share our experiences with the city of F?rth and other local authorities.?
