In the fight against hazardous substances and climate change, the European Union will ban placing mercury-containing and inefficient lamps on the market during 2023. The fluorescent tube’s fate is sealed. So will we all be working in the dark soon? Certainly not because LEDVANCE offers you various options for switching to future-proof LED technology – with the new, particularly versatile and economical LED TUBE EXTERNAL SYSTEM leading the way. Not only does it make switching easier than ever but in times of rising energy prices also extremely worthwhile.
The LED TUBE EXTERNAL SYSTEM is a convincing solution for switching from dimmable fluorescent lamps to LEDs and is suitable for installation in emergency lighting systems. On top of that it has another important product feature to offer: the ability to replace components. It follows the circular economy approach and makes sure that
You can simply use the existing wiring of the luminaire for effortless installation in existing devices. Switching is quick and easy because the old control gear and the new external DALI-2 driver have the same dimensions. Another benefit is that the DRIVER LED TUBE EXTERNAL is a multi-watt driver which is suitable for all LED TUBE T5/T8 EXTERNAL. You can simply set the required power via DIP switches on the driver itself. Finally, you can insert the LED tube and issue a new CE declaration. And that’s it!
Thanks to the optimal system efficiency of the LED tube and driver as well as relatively low replacement costs, the switch to LED technology using the LED TUBE EXTERNAL SYSTEM pays off after just a few months – especially when further potential savings are exploited in combination with sensors in a light management system. Once the return on investment has been achieved, it’s savings, savings, savings. This is an economy factor that cannot be rated highly enough given the current enormous rise in energy prices.
