LG raises industry standard with new LED lighting solutions

USA: Led by the most energy efficient LED lighting troffers on the market, LG Electronics USA is expanding its LED lighting presence within the US market.

LG is presenting its portfolio of energy-efficient commercial lighting solutions - from new troffers to high-bays to road and street lighting solutions - at LIGHTFAIR International 2014 (booth #7202), the lighting industry trade show that opens here today.

"LG's new LED lighting systems are designed to provide customers unprecedented monetary and energy savings," said Sean Lafferty, head of LG Electronics USA's LED lighting business. "The industry is evolving rapidly, and LG is proud to lead the way with new technologies that also showcase the LG brand with superior aesthetics and light performance."

LED troffers: LG's LED lighting troffers are the most energy efficient available on the market, achieving an astounding 140 lumens per watt, Lafferty explained. Such efficiency provides significant energy savings and a rapid return on investment. LG troffers are optimally designed to deliver energy savings of more than 50 percent compared with traditional fluorescent troffers and maintain 70 percent luminance for more than 200,000 hours.

Lafferty said LG's LED troffers are a great option for those seeking lighting retrofit solutions, as they maximize energy savings and can be installed without opening the ceiling in less than 10 minutes. They provide dimming control by ZigBee wireless communication, enabling easy integration with any open standard third party wireless control systems for even further energy savings. The ZigBee feature allows for installation cost savings. LG's troffers are available in 2'x2' and 2'x4' configurations as either lay-in or retrofit fixtures to provide flexible installation options.

LED high-bay: Designed as a long-life solution for industrial and commercial applications, LG's LED High-Bay technology delivers the equivalent lumen output of a 400w metal halide high bay with just 240w. It is equipped with an outstanding optical system with a low-glare diffuser at 120 or 240 watts, while delivering beam angles of 50 and 85 degrees to adjust to any ceiling height, ideal for warehouse and factory applications.

The LG High-Bay system is also beneficial for commercial applications given its easy installation and available Occupancy Sensor and ZigBee based wireless control options.

LED road and street lighting: LG LED Road and Street lighting optimizes the visual environment for drivers and pedestrians while helping to ensure their safety. LG Road and Street lighting solutions are available in four different configurations to provide flexibility for a wide range of street and commercial parking lot applications. Each model is equipped with smart and efficient wired control options to control light intensity, providing customizable lighting solutions for optimal brightness and light distribution.
