Installing ceiling lights is the most popular home lighting solution. Of course, depending on the requirements of a particular room, other configurations are possible, but this scheme is increasingly being used as the main system. Classical ways of implementing lighting are usually associated with the installation of familiar devices - with incandescent lamps and halogens. However, the diode ceiling lamp, which combines all the advantages of Led technology, is no less popular. Suffice it to mention energy savings, higher luminous efficacy and resistance to mechanical stress.
What to consider in operating parameters?
First of all, the power indicator is estimated. It will help determine whether the performance of the diodes is enough to service a room of a specific area. For living rooms, for example, you can choose devices with power ratings of 15-25 watts. Next, you should decide on the parameters of the luminous flux. This characteristic is expressed in Lumens and reflects the volume of the beam with brightness. In the standard version, the LED ceiling luminaire provides2000-2300 lm. It should be noted that this value is one of the strengths of devices based on Led technology. It will also not be superfluous to pay attention to the temperature of the light. From the point of view of operation, this is not the most significant indicator, but in a thorough approach to choosing a device, one cannot do without it either. Home models typically have a temperature in the range of 3000-5000 K. The colder the diodes, the paler their light.
Design variations
The ceiling mounting method initially determines some design features of the fixtures, but even in this case there is room for choice. The choice, for example, may depend on the form factor in which the LED ceiling lamp is made. The built-in case today competes with overhead structures, which also have many advantages. The first option is included in the popular category of stylish point devices. Such models are distinguished by their compact size, narrowly directed light and attractive appearance. In decorative terms, this is the best option.
Overhead models usually have a more massive body and, accordingly, are characterized by high power. If high-quality lighting with built-in models can be provided only if several copies are used, then the diode ceiling lamp for the home is able to fully serve a large living room or bedroom in the singular.
Optimal for office
For such models, indicators of reliability and comfort are important, in terms of the perception of light by the eyes. Typically, offices are designed with lighting designed for full-time operation. Therefore, the working resource must be appropriate. And this is also one of the strengths of diode sources - the service life in this case can be tens of thousands of hours. As for the comfort of perception, you should initially pay attention to the diffuser, which is equipped with a diode ceiling lamp. The office version of such a device includes a protective glass in the design, which softens the brightness of the radiation, which is useful for the eyes of employees. Some models include mirror reflectors, but it is better to refuse them, since this is an outdated and ineffective solution.
The nuances of choosing industrial models
Where in the case of office models more attention is paid to the characteristics of luminaires, in terms of the perception of radiation by personnel, then industrial devices should be selected with the expectation of durability, power and stability. First of all, you should focus on massive structures that will provide physical protection for light sources and allow you to perform a strong fixation. It would also be nice if the device has protection against freezing diodes. In general, the industrial diode ceiling lamp is distinguished by the wide use of protective additions,among which are insulating coatings, overheat protection systems, etc. When it comes to performance, there can be different approaches. On the one hand, high power is a prerequisite when choosing models for large rooms. On the other hand, in large quantities, such elements will consume electricity at a level corresponding to the power.
Which firms to prioritize?
There are many companies offering LED devices on the lighting market. If we talk about the highest quality products, then the brands Samsung, Philips and Osram will come to the fore. If you need a diode ceiling lamp from budget series, then you can pay attention to the Navigator models. As for the cost, the initial level is represented by versions from 200 to 300 rubles, and then the bar can rise to several thousand or more. The cost is affected by belonging to a certain brand, and the complexity of manufacturing the case, and, of course, the direct characteristics of the LEDs.
Conclusion
Led lights have many attractive features that have led to their widespread use. The advantages include a high working resource, low power consumption and an aesthetic appearance of the case. In this regard, the LED ceiling lamp can be considered as the most successful embodiment of the Led-concept. Especially built-in devices with compact dimensions and a neat shape look advantageous in modern apartments and houses. There are worthyoffers from this segment and for use in other areas. The power and durability of such lamps, in particular, is enough for installation in industrial and office premises. The main thing is to correctly compare the operational requirements for the installation site with the technical characteristics of the devices.
