Herkules Electronik Showcases LED Lamp Powered by Osram Opto LEDs

Author: SSLDesign News Staff

July 8, 2010... Herkules Electronik GmbH showcased its efficient LED lamp at the Light & Building trade fair, The lamp comes in a modern, robust die-cast aluminium housing with an eye-catching design providing protection class IP 65. Golden Dragon LEDs from Osram Opto Semiconductors power the LED modules inside the housing. The modules mounted on the bottom of a specially developed thermal drainage device. An IMS substrate provides what Herkules says is efficient thermal coupling. The device reportedly use a thermally conducting silicon elastomer – a technology similar to LED modules used in the automobile industry.

With a system energy requirement of only 31 or 62 Watt, these LED lamps generate a light yield of either 2,300 or 4,600 lumens respectively. To protect the system against excessive temperature, a control loop with temperature measurement is fitted on the LED module. An LED failure protection circuit ensures additional safety. According to Hurkules, the lowered night-time lighting circuit can further reduce the output of the circuitry to 55%.

The Golden Dragon LEDs have a luminous flux higher than 100 lm/Watt. Each packaged LED is equipped with a primary oval optical lens to distributes the light evenly in the target area. The lamps are ideal for street lighting, as efficient lighting for parking spaces or for lighting tasks in factory courtyards and loading zones.
