Fallsington, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/01/2019 -- As a top-rated provider of high mast lighting solutions for organizations across PA, National E Solutions understands the need for improved safety and cost-effectiveness. Now, the company is advising on the significant benefits of LED over traditional high-intensity discharge (HID) options for high mast lighting systems.
Although many high mast lighting solutions utilize HID lamps, they come with a range of disadvantages. For instance, HID lighting uses gases to generate light, and the components that contain these gases can be extremely fragile and delicate. This can cause issues on job sites or work environments that are hazardous, as lamps can break, or depreciate and produce no useful light level creating safety or security concerns.
HID lights also require at least 25 to 30 minutes of warm-up time to reach full output. Should they need to be restarted, they will need to cool down before they can be turned on again. Additionally, HID technology only has a lifespan of approximately 12,000 - 25,000 hours of light, meaning that they need to be maintained and replaced often.
Conversely, high mast LED lighting solutions don't need gases to operate. Instead, they rely on semiconductor material that allows them to be much more durable than HID lights. In fact, LEDs can handle harsh conditions, including vibration, rough treatment, and more. Since LEDs don't require warm-up time, they create consistent and constant illumination.
LEDs can also consume 30% less energy than HID lights, making them a cost-effective alternative. All this results in lower maintenance and repairs, leading to significant savings over their lifespan.
For those looking to make the change to LEDs, National E Solutions even provides retrofitting services to help businesses and organizations reap the benefits of lower operating costs and improved visibility and safety.
