GlacialTech subdivision, GlacialLight has introduced new eco-friendly LEDs that can be used as substitutes for halogen AR111 lamps.
The GL-AR111 LED Vega series has an LED driver onboard, making it compatible with the entire electronic transformers. The LEDs are suitable for hallway, accent, spot, cabinet and architectural lighting applications.
The LED Vega series is available in two models, namely the GL-MR1605WH-WW and the GL-MR1605WH-CW. The GL-MR1605WH-WW offers 3000 K correlated color temperature, luminous flux of 520 lm and a luminance of 43 lm/W, while the GL-MR1605WH-CW provides a correlated color tesmperature of 5000 K, luminance of 54 lm/W and a luminous flux of 650 lm. The cool white models are brighter and offer an illumination of 360 lx at 1 m, while the warm white lights deliver a 250 lx illumination at 1 m.
The LEDs consume 12 w of power and have a color rendering index of above 75 with a 25º beam angle. In addition, the LEDs are RoHS-compliant and compatible with electronic transformers and do not require any LED drivers for their operation.
The LED Vega series does not contain any hazardous radiation including IR or UV or other harmful chemicals such as mercury. These factors make the LEDs more environment-friendly than conventional incandescent lighting fixtures.
