How to choose between explosion-proof lamps and tri-proof lamps? Which one is more suitable for your needs?

Tri-proof lamps are increasingly used in industry, outdoor and special environments due to their waterproof, dustproof and corrosion-resistant properties.

However, there are a lot of tri-proof lamps on the market. How can you choose a tri-proof lamp with reliable quality and excellent performance to avoid pitfalls? Today, let me explain in detail the key points of choosing and using tri-proof lamps.

Generally speaking, explosion-proof lamps refer to lighting equipment that can be used in flammable and explosive environments. Their essential feature is that they can suppress the generation of sparks and avoid causing explosions. Tri-proof lamps refer to lighting equipment that can be used in harsh climate and environmental conditions. Their characteristics are that they are waterproof, dustproof and shockproof.

1. Key points for lightning protection when purchasing triple-proof lamps

1. Whether the protection level (IP level) meets the standard

The core function of tri-proof lamps lies in their protection ability, and the protection level (IP level) is a key indicator to measure their protection ability. The IP level consists of two numbers, the first number represents the dustproof level, and the second number represents the waterproof level.

For humid and dusty environments, IP65 is the basic requirement; while tri-proof lamps with a level of IP67 or above can be immersed for a short time and are suitable for more stringent scenarios. When purchasing, be sure to confirm the IP level of the product with the manufacturer.

2. Whether the material and craftsmanship of the lamp body are strong

The material of the lamp body directly determines the durability and service life of the tri-proof lamp. High-quality tri-proof lamps are usually made of die-cast aluminum, which is not only corrosion-resistant, but also can dissipate heat quickly and is more durable than ordinary plastic materials. In addition, the interface of the lamp body must be sealed, such as using silicone rings and buckle designs to prevent water vapor and dust from intruding.

3. Whether the light source performance is stable

The performance of the light source directly affects the lighting effect and service life. When purchasing, pay attention to the light effect (such as 120LM/W or above), color rendering index (RA>80) and color temperature (5000K pure white light is suitable for industrial scenes). Poor quality lamp beads are prone to light decay. It is recommended to choose well-known brand chips (such as Cree and Bridgelux) and confirm whether the product has passed the LM-80 light decay test.

4. Is energy saving and life "worry-free" enough?

The life of a true tri-proof lamp should be ≥50,000 hours, and it can be used for more than 10 years with an average daily use of 10 hours. With a high conversion rate power supply (such as UL certified driver), it is energy-saving and power-saving, and it is more cost-effective to use it for a long time.

5. Are the certification qualifications complete?

Formal tri-proof lamp products should have CE, ROHS, ISO9001 and other certifications, and exported products must also meet local standards (such as North American UL). The quality of uncertified products cannot be guaranteed, so don't be greedy for cheapness.

IN END OF 

Tri-proof lamps play an important role in industry, outdoor and special environments due to their waterproof, dustproof and corrosion-resistant properties. When purchasing tri-proof lamps, you should pay attention to the protection level, lamp body material, light source performance, energy saving and life, certification qualifications and after-sales service. During use, you must install correctly, maintain regularly, pay attention to the use environment and avoid excessive load. Choosing tri-proof lamp products that meet national standards can effectively ensure safety and extend the service life of the lamp.
