There is currently a large supply of LED lights on the market to help consumers conserve energy and therefore save money and reduce the environmental impact. One of the market leading suppliers in Europe is NANHUA-Europe, which is a distributor of heavy duty LED Lighting specially designed for markets such as ports, crane-builders, offshore, marine and other heavy industries.
NANHUA-Europe recently introduced the new LF430 series LED floodlights, which helps to replace conventional high pressure sodium lighting fixtures up to 1000 watt, one on one, without loss of luminance even in the latest Ship to Shore cranes for the “triple E” class ships . This is useable for new build cranes, but also on all existing crane types, like STS, Straddle Carriers, and Stacking Cranes.
Safety first
NANHUA-Europe is part of Nanhua Electronics Co. Ltd., which is the Chinese manufacturer and trading company of digital intercom systems and LED lighting. Since 1990, the company has been focussing on people who work in hazardous conditions, to provide them with the best electronic products which will lower the safety risk. That’s why Nanhua LEDs are being used in mining, metallurgic and steel industry, as well in maritime and offshore industries.
Those LED light fixtures offer qualitative LED armatures (also ATEX Certified); from walkway light fixtures (13 – 30 Watt) to floodlights (50 – 400 W). By using proven high quality technologies, the Nanhua light fixtures ensure a safer working environment as well as a significant decrease in maintenance and energy costs.
With the installation of LF430 series LED floodlights, the lighting can be improved on several respects. The colouring index (Ra) is much higher, depending on the light colour of the LED, which will improve the general safety in and around the cranes and crane areas and, therefore, improve the production of the cranes trough better visibility. The vibration and corrosion resistance, the high efficiency (up to 100 lm/w), combined with the long life span of the LED reduce the total cost of ownership significantly.
Other advantages
With Nanhua-Europe LED lighting fixtures, the total cost of ownership can be reduced and the lighting quality, safety, and reliability can be improved. Furthermore, the company can supply floodlights from 100 to 400 watt, Explosion-proof floodlights 50 to 70 watt, and walk-way lights from 13 to 30 watt. Next to these standard solutions, Nanhua-Europe has specific models for specific needs.
All lighting fixtures have excellent performance levels such as:
– Proven track-record (over 18 years’ experience in heavy duty, marine, on- and offshore industries)
– Vibration and shock proof
– Advanced lighting technology (10°, 25°, 60° floodlights, up to 400 watt)
– High efficiency (up to >100 lm/w)
– Available 2700K to 6000K – More than 50.000 hours lifespan
NANHUA-Europe LED lighting can undoubtedly be categorised in the high quality range of LED lighting. It’s environmentally friendly, thanks to the low-energy consumption, and the long life span of the fixtures, and low levels of stray-light, to preserve wildlife. Furthermore, with the LEDs, the total cost of ownership can be reduced and the lighting quality, safety, and reliability can be improved. In Europe, already the first realised projects, on cranes and ships have been a great success story.
