Lastest company news about How can solar street lamps be protected from lightning strikes? 2025/04/18
How can solar street lamps be protected from lightning strikes?
   Solar street lamps have been widely used in the field of road lighting due to their advantages such as energy conservation, environmental protection and convenient installation. However, as it is usually installed in open and tall outdoor environments, it is highly likely to become a target of lightning strikes. Once lightning strikes a solar street lamp, it will not only damage key components such as the lamp, controller and battery, but also may cause safety accidents and result in economic losses. Therefore, it is of vital importance to master effective measures against lightning strikes. ​ A perfect grounding system    Good grounding is the foundation of lightning protection for solar street lamps. The grounding system can quickly introduce the powerful instantaneous current generated by lightning into the ground, preventing equipment from being damaged due to overvoltage. First of all, appropriate grounding materials should be selected. Generally, hot-dip galvanized flat steel, round steel or copper materials are used, which have good electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The burial depth of the grounding electrode should comply with relevant standards, usually not less than 0.6 meters, and it is necessary to ensure that the grounding electrode is in full contact with the soil. The resistivity of the soil can be reduced and the grounding effect enhanced by adding resistance-reducing agents around the grounding electrode. The general requirement is that the grounding resistance should not exceed 4Ω. If this standard cannot be met, the grounding resistance can be reduced by increasing the number of grounding electrodes or extending the length of the grounding body. ​ Install lightning rods or lightning belts    A lightning rod or lightning belt can attract lightning to itself and safely discharge the lightning current through the grounding system. When installing lightning rods on the top of solar street lamps, it is necessary to ensure that the height and protection range of the lightning rods can cover the entire street lamp system. The length of a lightning rod is generally determined by the height of the street lamp and the surrounding environment, usually ranging from 0.5 to 1 meter. For some solar street lamp facilities that are tall and large in area, it is more appropriate to install lightning protection belts. Lightning protection belts should be laid along metal components such as street lamp poles and solar panel brackets, and be reliably connected to the grounding system. ​   The application of surge protectors (SPDS)    Surge protectors are key equipment for lightning protection in solar street lamps. They can instantly limit excessively high voltages within the range that the equipment can withstand. In the solar street lamp system, surge protectors need to be installed at multiple locations. At the DC output end of the solar panel, a DC SPD should be installed to prevent overvoltage generated by lightning induction from invading the system along the power line. On the connection lines between the controller and the battery, corresponding SPDS also need to be installed to protect these core components. When choosing a surge protector, a reasonable selection should be made based on parameters such as the system's working voltage, maximum continuous operating voltage, and nominal discharge current. ​ Line protection    The circuit of a solar street lamp includes the DC circuit between the solar panel and the controller, the circuit between the controller and the lamp, etc. These lines also require special attention during the lightning protection process. Shielded cables should be used as much as possible for the lines, and both ends of the shielding layer should be reliably grounded to prevent lightning electromagnetic pulses from interfering with the lines and inducing overvoltage. In cases where shielded cables cannot be used, a metal pipe can be wrapped around the cable and grounded. Meanwhile, the laying of the lines should avoid crossing with other metal objects as much as possible to reduce the generation of induced overvoltage. ​ The reasonable layout and installation of the equipment    When installing solar street lamps, the positions of each component should be reasonably arranged. Solar panels should be installed at the top of the lamp post as much as possible to avoid being blocked by tall buildings or trees around. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure a good electrical connection between the solar panels and the lamp post. The controller and battery should be installed in a place that is waterproof, moisture-proof and easy to maintain, and kept away from damp and high-temperature environments. During the installation process, all metal components must be reliably electrically connected to form a complete equipotential body, avoiding safety accidents caused by electric sparks resulting from potential differences. ​ Regular maintenance and inspection    Lightning protection facilities are not a one-time solution and require regular maintenance and inspection. Regularly check whether the grounding system is in good condition and whether there is any corrosion or loosening of the grounding electrode. Check whether the surge protector is working properly and whether its indication status is normal. Check whether there are any problems such as damage or aging in the circuit. For the problems found, timely repair and replacement should be carried out to ensure that the lightning protection system of solar street lamps is always in good working condition. ​    The lightning protection of solar street lamps is a systematic project, which requires comprehensive consideration and implementation from multiple aspects such as grounding systems, lightning protection devices, surge protection, line protection, equipment installation and regular maintenance. Only by doing every link well can the lightning protection capacity of solar street lamps be effectively enhanced and their safe and stable operation be guaranteed.

Lastest company news about Applications and advantages of photoelectric sensor street lights 2025/04/14
Applications and advantages of photoelectric sensor street lights
   Photocell sensor Street lamp is mainly composed of Photocell sensor, controller and street lamp and other parts. Its working principle is to use the photocell sensor to sense the intensity of the environmental light changes, the light signal into electrical signals, the controller according to the electrical signal to control the light and brightness of the street lamp, as follows:      1. Light perception: photocell sensors are the "eyes" of street lamps, usually using components such as photoresistors, photodiodes or phototriodes. These components are very sensitive to light, and when the ambient light hits the photocell sensor, the electronic structure inside will change, resulting in a corresponding change in the resistance value or current value. For example, a photoresistor has a lower resistance when the light is good and a higher resistance when the light is low; Photodiodes and phototriodes generate different amounts of current depending on the intensity of the light.    2. Signal conversion and processing: After the photocell sensor converts the perceived optical signal into an electrical signal, the signal is transmitted to the controller. The controller is usually a microprocessor or single chip computer, which has specific programs and algorithms built in to analyze and process the incoming electrical signals. The controller compares the received electrical signal with a preset threshold to determine whether the intensity of the current ambient light meets the conditions for the street light to be turned on or off.      3. Street lamp control: According to the processing results of the controller, when the ambient light intensity is lower than the preset opening threshold, the controller will issue instructions to open the street lamp through the drive circuit, and control the brightness of the street lamp as needed. If the ambient light intensity is higher than the preset shutdown threshold, the controller will issue a shutdown command to turn off the street lamp. In some photocell sensor street lights with dimming function, the controller will also accurately control the luminance of street lamps by adjusting the output current or voltage of the drive circuit according to the specific intensity of the ambient light and other relevant factors (such as traffic flow, time, etc.) to achieve intelligent dimming function.        Photocell sensor street light with its intelligent, energy-saving and other characteristics, is widely used in urban roads, highways, industrial parks and other scenes, in energy saving, intelligent control and other aspects of excellence, with the following advantages:    1. Efficient and energy saving    On-demand lighting: photocell sensors can sense the ambient light intensity in real time. When the ambient light is sufficient, such as during the day, the street lamp automatically turns off, avoiding unnecessary power consumption. When the light is dark, such as at night or on cloudy days, the street lamp automatically turns on and works normally. This precise intelligent control greatly reduces the ineffective lighting time of street lights, thus significantly reducing energy consumption, compared with the working mode of traditional street lights that are always open. ​ Intelligent dimming: Some advanced photocell sensor street lights also have dimming functions. According to the actual brightness of the surrounding environment and traffic flow and other factors, the street lamp can automatically adjust the luminous brightness. In the late night, when the traffic flow and the flow of people are small, the appropriate reduction of the brightness of the street lamp can not only ensure the basic lighting needs, but also further save energy. According to relevant studies, photocell sensor street lights with dimming function can save 30%-60% of energy than ordinary street lights. ​    2. Extend service life    Reduce frequent switching impact: the timing control method of traditional street lamps may force the street lamp to open or close at an inappropriate time, and frequent switching operation will cause a large current impact on key components such as the lamp bulb and ballast, accelerate the aging of components, and shorten the overall service life of the street lamp. The photocell sensor street lamp automatically controls the switch according to the ambient light, avoids unnecessary frequent switching, reduces the current impact, makes the working state of the street lamp components more stable, and effectively extends the service life of the street lamp. ​    Optimizing the working state: Because the photocell sensor street light can adjust the brightness according to the actual needs, and reduce the power operation without full brightness, the street light is in a relatively easy working state most of the time, reducing the wear and tear of the components, further extending the service life of the street light, and reducing the maintenance and replacement costs of the street light. ​    3. Improve lighting quality    Real-time adaptation to the environment: photocell sensors can quickly and accurately perceive changes in environmental light, whether it is sudden clouds blocking the sun, or the sky gradually darkening at night, street lights can respond in time, quickly adjust the lighting state, and provide continuous and stable lighting for the road. This ability to adapt to the environment in real time effectively avoids visual discomfort caused by light mutations, providing a safer and more comfortable lighting environment for pedestrians and vehicles. ​ Eliminate lighting dead corners: By rationally arranging the position of photocell sensors and street lights, precise control of lighting needs in different areas of the road can be achieved. For some corners, intersections and other places prone to lighting dead corners,photocell sensor street lights can increase the lighting brightness according to the actual situation, ensure the lighting effect of these key areas, improve the overall lighting quality of the road, and reduce the risk of traffic accidents. ​    4. Easy installation and maintenance    Easy installation: The installation process of photocell sensor street light is relatively simple. The sensor is usually small in size, easy to install in the appropriate position of the street lamp pole, and easy to connect with the street lamp control system. Compared with some complex intelligent lighting systems, there is no need to lay a large number of additional control lines, which reduces the construction difficulty and cost during the installation process, shortens the installation time, and improves the installation efficiency. ​    Efficient maintenance: Because the failure rate of the photocell sensor street lamp is relatively low, and its intelligent control system can monitor the working status of the street lamp in real time, once the fault occurs, it can quickly locate the problem, and the maintenance personnel can carry out targeted maintenance, which greatly reduces the maintenance time and improves the efficiency of the maintenance work. At the same time, the long service life also reduces the maintenance workload of frequent replacement of street lamp components. ​    5. Environmental protection and sustainability    Reduce carbon emissions: The energy-saving nature of the photocell sensor street light means that the greenhouse gas emissions generated during the power generation process are correspondingly reduced. Taking a medium-sized city as an example, if a certain number of traditional street lights are replaced with photocell sensor street lights, a large number of greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide can be reduced every year, which has positive significance for mitigating global climate change and is in line with the environmental protection concept of sustainable development. ​ Resource conservation: Reducing the replacement frequency and maintenance needs of street lamps means that in the process of production and transportation of street lamps and their components, the consumption of raw materials, water resources and energy is also correspondingly reduced, which helps to achieve efficient use and conservation of resources, and promotes the development of urban lighting systems in a more environmentally friendly and sustainable direction.

Lastest company news about The difference between LED light source and light fixture 2025/03/25
The difference between LED light source and light fixture
1. Definition of LED light source and luminaire An LED light source is a component that is provided with an LED lamp or LED module. LED luminaires are luminaires that are designed to use LED light sources. A luminaire is defined as "an apparatus capable of distributing, transmitting or transforming the light emitted by one or more lamps, and includes all the parts necessary to support, secure and protect the lamp (but not the lamp itself) as well as the necessary electrical aids and devices to connect them to the power source."   2. The reason why LEDs are misunderstood as LED light sources The light sources in conventional luminaires are almost always replaceable. With the advent of LEDs,Most of the lamps using LED modules appear in a non-replaceable form, which seems to show a trend of integration.The boundaries between LED light sources and LED luminaires also seem to be blurred.Is the whole a luminaire and can be considered as a light source? In fact, it is clearly written in the definition of luminaires: a luminaire with a monolithic non-replaceable light source is considered a luminaire. Luminaires using LED modules are precisely one example of luminaires.     3. The light source has the characteristics of being used by different lamps The light source is used by the luminaire. LED light sources can be used both in simple lamps and in road lamps. 4. Differences in the level of protection of the enclosure As a light source, there are no special enclosure protection requirements or IP20 should be achieved. However, the enclosure rating of outdoor lighting fixtures should be at least IP65.The enclosure protection level of LED road lamps should reach at least IPX3, and the enclosure protection level of tunnel lamps should reach at least IPX5.   5. Different luminous fluxes The luminous flux of the light source in the luminous effect of the LED light source refers to the luminous flux emitted by the bare light source (the state in which the luminaire is not yet installed).Among them, the LED light source can be an integrated LED lamp or an integrated LED module,Semi-integrated LED lamps or semi-integrated LED modules or non-integrated LED lamps or non-integrated LED modules.The numerator-one luminous flux in the expression of the efficiency of LED luminaires refers to the light source being installed into the luminaire.   The luminous flux emitted by the luminaire after using the required LED control device or the power supply of the LED control unit at the same time.The power supply of the LED control device or the LED control device can be integral,Built-in or free-standing. Luminaires that use LED light sources may use reflectors, diffusers, or lenses. The light source installed in the luminaire may be a single light source or a collection of multiple light sources, but the efficiency loss due to the interaction of thermal energy and electrical energy, and the efficiency of the luminaire optical system, the luminous flux of the LED luminaire is not equal to the luminous flux of the LED light source or its simple accumulation. The luminous flux in the luminous efficiency of the LED light source is different from the luminous flux in the luminaire efficiency in the luminaire performance. The former is measured in the pulsed state and the latter in the steady-state operating state. The light in the LED light source is non-directional, as long as the light can be emitted, it is recognized in all directions. The light in the efficiency of LED lamps is directional, and the light needs to be sent to useful areas.

Lastest company news about The difference between monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon solar panels for solar street lights 2025/03/15
The difference between monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon solar panels for solar street lights
   A photovoltaic panel is a type of solar energy conversion device that converts solar energy into electricity. Solar panels are one of the most commonly used, and the common solar panels of solar street lights are mainly divided into two categories: monocrystalline photovoltaic panels and polycrystalline photovoltaic panels.    Monocrystalline photovoltaic panels are made from a single silicon crystal. In the manufacturing process, the silicon material is first melted and then cooled down to become a solid. The silicon mass thus formed is called a "ingot". Next, this ingot will be cut into very thin wafers, which are called "wafers". The wafers are assembled on photovoltaic panels to form a complete monocrystalline photovoltaic panel. Monocrystalline PV panels have a dark blue appearance and are usually square or rectangular in shape.    In contrast, polycrystalline photovoltaic panels are made up of multiple small crystals. The manufacturing process for polycrystalline photovoltaic panels is similar to that of monocrystalline photovoltaic panels, but instead of melting into a single crystal, the silicon material forms multiple small crystals during the melting process. These small crystals are cut into wafers and then assembled on photovoltaic panels. Polycrystalline PV panels have a light blue or gray appearance and are usually square or rectangular in shape.    In addition to the differences in manufacturing process and appearance, monocrystalline PV panels and polycrystalline PV panels have different performance characteristics. Monocrystalline PV panels are more efficient than polycrystalline PV panels because they are made of a single crystal, making it easier for electrons to move within the crystal. In addition, monocrystalline PV panels perform better in low light conditions because of its faster response time. The cost of polycrystalline PV panels is lower than that of monocrystalline PV panels because polycrystalline silicon is cheaper than monocrystalline silicon. In addition, polycrystalline photovoltaic panels perform better at high temperatures and low light conditions because it has a lower surface reflectivity and is better able to absorb light energy.    When choosing solar panels, you should choose monocrystalline PV panels or polycrystalline PV panels according to the specific application scenario. If high efficiency and stable performance are required, then choosing monocrystalline PV panels is a good choice. If you need to reduce costs and adapt to high temperature and low light conditions, then hydrocrystalline photovoltaic panels are a better choice.    In conclusion, both monocrystalline and polycrystalline PV panels have their advantages and disadvantages, which should be chosen according to the application scenario and budget. With the continuous development and advancement of solar technology, we believe that the performance and cost of both photovoltaic panels will be continuously improved and improved.

Lastest company news about The difference between LED explosion-proof lights and ordinary high bay lights 2025/03/14
The difference between LED explosion-proof lights and ordinary high bay lights
   Explosion-proof lamps are those lamps like metal halide lamps or high-pressure sodium, because this type of lamps and lanterns are high-pressure and high-temperature nature, there is a certain danger, and this kind of lamps and lanterns will be much safer to make explosion-proof.        But LED luminaires are different, they are cold light sources and there is no danger of breaking or exploding. So why should LED lamps be made explosion-proof? What is the difference between it and ordinary LED lights?      Explosion-proof lamps are mainly used in hazardous places where flammable gases and dusts are present to prevent combustion or explosion caused by arcing, sparks and high temperatures generated inside the luminaire. Avoid the activation of flammable gases and dusts in the surrounding environment due to the combustion or explosion of the lamp, so as to meet the explosion-proof requirements of the lamp. Explosion-proof lamps are also called explosion-proof lamps, explosion-proof lighting street lights, LED explosion-proof lights, and so on. Different flammable substances and gas mixtures have different requirements for the type and grade of explosion-proof lamps.        LED explosion-proof lamps and ordinary lamps can be intuitively seen from the surface, and most of the explosion-proof lamps are yellow in color (not excluding a few other colors). In terms of weight, the explosion-proof lamp is much heavier than the ordinary lamp, because the heat dissipation aluminum used in the explosion-proof lamp is thickened, in order to prevent the internal constant current source from being damaged to the protective shell after the problem. The explosion-proof types of conventional explosion-proof lamps are as follows.   1.Increased safety type e    Under normal operating conditions, the electrical equipment that will not produce arc and spark takes some additional measures to improve its safety, prevents its internal and external parts from having the possibility of dangerous temperature, arc and spark explosion-proof type, and further takes protective measures in the structure to improve the reliability performance and safety performance of the equipment. 2.Positive pressure type p    Electrical equipment protects static positive pressure inside the system or maintains a continuous flow of air or inert gases to limit the entry of flammable mixtures into the enclosure by keeping the pressure of the shielding gas inside the enclosure higher than the ambient explosion-proof atmosphere pressure to safety. Remove the flammable gases that enter the housing when the equipment is not under positive pressure to prevent the formation of flammable mixtures in the housing. 3.Pouring type m    The electrical parts that may produce the spark, arc or dangerous temperature part that ignites the explosion of explosive mixture, are poured in the encapsulant (compound), so that it can not ignite the surrounding explosive mixture, adopt the pouring measures, can prevent the short circuit of electrical components, solidify the electrical insulation, avoid the spark on the circuit and the ignition of arc and dangerous temperature, prevent the invasion of explosive mixture, and control the surface temperature under normal and fault conditions. 4.Oil-filled o    The whole equipment or parts of the equipment are invaded in the oil I protective fluid l, so that it can not be ignited above the fuel level or outside the explosion-proof gas environment outside the shell. 5.Sand filling type Q    The protective type of electrical equipment in which the shell is filled with sand particles or other powder materials with specified characteristics, so that under the specified conditions of use, the arc or high temperature generated in the shell cannot ignite the surrounding explosive gas atmosphere.   Due to the different requirements for explosion-proof lamps in different environments, it is important not to choose explosion-proof lamps casually, but to choose the corresponding model according to specific requirements.

Lastest company news about Factors and precautions for selecting and installing solar street lights 2025/02/17
Factors and precautions for selecting and installing solar street lights
1. Choose LED lighting fixtures with lumens/watt height   Luminous flux, which is the total amount of visible light emitted by a light source per unit of time, in lumens (Lm). Luminous efficiency, i.e., the amount of light energy emitted per watt of electrical power produced by a light source (commonly known as luminous flux), unit: lumens per watt (Lm/w)   The comprehensive luminous effect of LED lighting fixtures refers to the luminous efficiency of a finished LED street lamp. Under the rated voltage, the total luminous flux emitted by the LED lamp is divided by the total power consumption of the LED lamp, that is, the comprehensive luminous efficiency of the LED lamp, expressed in lumens/watt, the higher the value, the better the energy-saving effect of the lamp, the more power saving. Under the same power, the lamps with high luminous efficiency and large luminous flux are brighter and more energy-saving! A 3W LED bulb is taller than an 18W energy-saving lamp. And the ratio is about 8 times that of a 40W incandescent lamp. 2. Choose products with high color rendering index   Color rendering refers to the degree to which the color of an object is close to the true color when illuminated by light. The higher the Ra value of the color rendering index, the closer the color of the object will be to the true color. It is generally believed that 80~100, excellent color rendering; 50~79, general color rendering:
