The longer the service life of the lamp, the greater the economic and ecological benefits. In the use of lamps, the low loss of semiconductor light-emitting solvents enables LED lamps to have a long service life. In many cases, LEDs are more durable than other fixtures. And the potential vitality of this technology is still immeasurable. It can be said that LED lights represent the future development trend of the future lighting and lighting industry.
Factors affecting the life and reliability of LED
The operating life of the LED (L70B50) can easily exceed 50,000 hours. Compared with other light sources, LED is not inferior. During operation, only the luminescent solvent is slightly consumed. In practice, LEDs are basically maintenance-free during the entire use process, but this also depends on the specific application. The reasons that specifically affect the LED service life are described below:
Temperature
The heat generated during the use of krypton lamps has an impact on the lamp’s life cycle and luminous solvents. This principle applies to both individual LEDs and the entire LED module. That’s why it’s especially important to pay attention to the best installation method and properly utilize the heat sink to transfer heat. The basic principle is as follows: the lower the temperature, the longer the life cycle of the LED, the better the performance, and the brighter it is.
Mechanical effects
The causes of mechanical forces are diverse. During the manufacturing, assembly or handling and use of LEDs, certain materials and substances are used to generate mechanical forces, which in turn causes large temperature fluctuations. These are the causes of mechanical forces. If an LED is exposed to such mechanical forces, this may have a negative impact on its working life and may even damage it.
Power application
Each LED light and each LED module has a specific power range. The lower the current in this range, the less electric energy is released, and the lower the heat generated, which has a direct impact on the service life of the electric lamp.
Lighting
The appearance design of a specific LED plays an important role in the aging of specific components, and these effects come from the light emitted by the chip. In many designs, the built-in mirrors cause losses during the first few hundred hours of operation, which are due to the high intensity and brightness of the light emitted by the chip.
Humidity
LED itself has the characteristics of stability, non-sensitivity, and shock resistance. If the method of use is reasonable, there will be no problem in a humid environment. However, the various metal parts, connectors, and electronic components that make up an LED are sensitive, which may corrode and cause internal module failure. Appropriate materials for the LED should be anti-corrosive, and protection from humidity and humidity is absolutely necessary. These are to ensure the longest operating life of the LED.
Chemical material
LED LEDs are affected by chemical substances in different places. For this reason, all environmental factors must be taken into account when using LED lighting systems. The following factors, including other issues, will adversely affect the life of the LED:
Corrosive air (sulfur dioxide in the air)
- Salty coastal climate
- Chemical Industry
- Chloride pool
