What is High Bay Light
Introduction:
High-bay lighting is used in high-ceiling areas to light surfaces more than 15 feet away. Common high-bay applications include industrial manufacturing, gymnasiums, warehouses, and warehouse-type retailers. Besides those used in general environment, there’re explosion-proof high bay lights and corrosion-proof ones used in special places as well as others in large-scale high buildings.
Type:
High bay lights can be divided into general high bay lights and local high bay lights.
General high bay lights
Deposited on the top or in side wall of working places, general lights can light up the entire working surface, most of which are high-power incandescent lamp, tungsten-halogen lamp , High- intensity gas discharge lamp and fluorescent lamp. The vast majority of mining lights belong to this type.
Local high bay lights
Local high bay lights are the lighting to improve the illumination of a particular working places. They can be strengthened and supplemented on the basis of general lights as well as used as temporary lighting in some places where usually don’t need lighting. They usually employ incandescent , halogen light source with extra low voltage (AC, ≤ 50V).
High bay lights can be divided into traditional high bay lights (Na high bay lights, mercury high bay lights and so on) and LED high bay lights.
Compared with traditional ones, LED high bay lights have the following advantages:
- CRI RA> 70
- High luminous efficiency, more energy saving , 100W LED High Bay Lights equivalent to 250W traditional high bay lights
- More safety because of cold light source and low temperature
- Lighter weight
