Municipal Street Lighting

Key Factors to Consider in municipal street lighting

• Parameters: Municipal road lighting puts forward clear requirements for the wattage, lumens, color temperature, color rendering index, lifespan and lens of lamps. For example, the power of lamps is 75 watts, the luminous flux is greater than 10,000 lumens, LED light source, and the color temperature is not less than 4000K. All LED lamps need to have a color temperature of 4000K and a color rendering index (CRI) of 75 or above. The life of LED lamps must be greater than 50,000 hours (L80 standard). The lens requirement is Type II M. We need to compare the specifications of our own luminaires against these requirements to select the luminaires that best suit the needs of the project. In addition, there will also be requirements for lamp materials, dimming functions, intelligent control (NEMA base + controller), light poles and other related parameters. Different projects will have different needs.
• Simulation: Lighting simulation is often used in municipal lighting. Its main purpose is to confirm the most suitable wattage, lens and layout of lamps for the project. For example, if there is a 7-meter-wide road, 8-meter-high light poles are used, and the distance between light poles is 40 meters, the customer requires that the power of each light is 80 watts, but through lighting simulation, it is found that only 60 watts are actually needed. All you need is a light and a suitable lens. Through simulation, the actual power consumption of the solution was reduced by 25%, which is more conducive to the adoption of the solution. Lighting simulation is also applicable to other lighting, such as stadium lighting (football, tennis, basketball, etc.), factory lighting and other outdoor lighting scenes.
• Other requirements: IP66 dust-proof and waterproof, IK09 impact-proof level, temperature test reports, etc. are also frequently asked by customers because these indicators involve the performance of lamps in harsh environments. We won’t go into too much detail here. In addition, we need to confirm whether the dimming function of the power supply, the input cable of the lamp, and the label meet the requirements one by one.
• Certification and reporting: The importance of road lighting certification and reporting is to ensure that the street lights selected meet industry standards and regulatory requirements. These certifications and reports cover the electrical safety and optical performance of lamps, such as CE EMC, CE LVD, ENEC, RoHS, CB, ENEC+, LM79, LM80, TM21, ISTMT, IP test, IK test, salt spray test, structural durability, etc. Suppliers should obtain these certifications and reports to demonstrate the quality and compliance of street lights. For example, CE LVD and ENEC prove the safety of the lamp, ENEC+, LM79, LM80, etc. prove the optical performance, and IP and IK reports prove that the structure of the lamp meets the requirements of the corresponding level. In municipal road lighting projects, we need to pay attention to these certifications and reports to ensure the lighting effect of street lights in actual applications, thereby ensuring the effectiveness, reliability and safety of road lighting.

ZGSM‘s municipal street lighting

Optic design

The optic of ZGSM LED street light is carefully designed and adjusted to achieve precise beam angles and light distribution. Through precise optical design, these fixtures ensure maximum utilization of light while minimizing waste and light pollution. ZGSM’s LED street lights offer a variety of spectrum options (beam angle and light intensity), including Type I, Type II and Type III medium, etc. These spectra, combined with lighting simulations, provide optimal lighting effects for different municipal roads. They increase the visibility of road lighting in a targeted manner, thereby increasing the sense of safety for pedestrians and motorists.

Uniform Illumination

Achieving uniform illumination of all municipal street lights is critical to ensuring the comfort and safety of pedestrians and motorists. ZGSM’s LED street lighting solutions guarantee uniformity in compliance with EN13201 requirements, eliminating black spots and uneven lighting. Through lighting design and superior light distribution options, these luminaires ensure consistent light levels throughout the street, reducing potential hazards and improving visibility for all road users.

Reliability

Regardless of ambient conditions, municipal lighting systems must operate reliably throughout the night. ZGSM’s LED street lights are excellent in this aspect. By choosing high-end Inventronics power supplies and Lumileds lamp beads, we can ensure that the abrupt failure rate of street lights is very low, which will greatly improve the reliability of the entire lighting system. Sturdy construction and high-quality components also guarantee the street lights have high IP and IK ratings, which makes them withstand harsh weather conditions such as extreme temperatures, rain, and even dust. With these, ZGSM’s LED street lights offer unrivaled reliability, minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.

Durability

Longevity is a critical consideration when it comes to municipal street lighting solutions. The life of LED lamps is mainly affected by the working temperature and the quality of the lamp beads, and ZGSM’s LED street lamps use effective heat dissipation mechanism and reliable LED lamp beads to ensure that our lamps have a long service life. Based on relevant reports (including LM80, ISTMT, TM21 and IEC62722 reports), we can self-advertise that the life of our lamps can reach L70>100000hrs. The Reliability and Durability of ZGSM street lamps make them have a very low failure rate and lumen attenuation during the project cycle, that is, they can save a lot of cost during their service life.
