LEDtronics, Inc., with more than 40 years of leadership in innovative LED lighting solutions, announces the newest member of its series of high-brightness, energy-efficient LED replacement bulbs, with energy savings of up to 85% over halogens.
Suitable for damp locations, the PAR38C COB (Chip On Board) LED bulb is ideal for direct retrofit into E26 screw-base fixtures in both outdoor and indoor applications, such as track, decor and accent lighting, security or emergency lights, architectural and landscape lighting in facilities, plants, hotels and resorts, display-case fixtures and cabinet lighting, industrial OEM equipment lighting, bio-medical and medical applications, ambient lighting in museums and galleries, as well as theatrical effects flood lighting, among many others.
The new long-neck PAR38C Triac dimming compatible bulb comes with a clear Fresnel and pebbled prismatic lens of polycarbonate material. It directs high brightness of 1,560 lumens and 2,533 candelas in 5000K Pure White LED color temperature. It provides a 35x45-degree beam of light in a medium spot illumination pattern.
This high-efficiency bulb with high-grade COB LEDs replaces comparative halogens up to 100 watts, while consuming only 14 watts of power and delivering an efficacy of 111 lumens per watt, resulting in tremendous energy savings of up to 85%. It operates at an input voltage of 120VAC, offering long-lasting durability and easy drop-in installation in existing standard E26 25mm Edison screw-base sockets. It also boasts outstanding color fidelity with a CRI of 80 that enhances color nuances. In addition, the lamp maintains 70 percent or greater of LED lumens at 25,000 hours of operation — a lifespan many times longer than the equivalent halogen bulb!
Because LEDs have no filament, their solid-state design renders them impervious to shock, vibration, frequent switching and environmental extremes. This UL / cUL Certified COB PAR38C LED bulb contains no harmful mercury, lead or other toxic elements; and unlike incandescent or halogen bulbs, LEDs do not emit large amounts of heat and emit little to no ultraviolet or infrared light, offering even lighting, with no buzzing or flickering. This makes them perfect for use in museums, hospitals, offices or areas where UV radiation might degrade the surroundings (such as illuminating valuable artwork, wine cellars or food service areas).
The fact that they run remarkably cool also means they greatly reduce the building’s air-conditioning energy load. The lamp operates in a wide ambient operating temperature range of -4°F to +104°F (~-20°C to ~+40°C).
Since LED lights are much more energy efficient than halogens and other filament-style lamps, these bulbs are perfect for operation with an alternative or renewable energy resource such as solar or wind power in cold or warm environments.
The new LEDtronics PAR38C-15WP-XPW-120AMD dimmable, suitable-for-damp-locations and UL / cUL Certified lamp with COB LEDs comes with a 3-year LEDtronics warranty and is available through LEDtronics distributors.
