Kumho Electric’s electrode-less induction lighting leverages new technology developments to provide a high-efficiency, low-maintenance, long-term lighting solution. With a 100,000-hour rated life, Econergy induction lamps are ideal for outdoor applications where re-lamping is expensive or cumbersome, as in parking lots, street lighting, tunnels, or indoors for high bay fixtures. Versatile mounting options make them the ideal choice for a variety of pole, ceiling and wall-mounted applications.
How do Econergy Lamps
Save Energy?
Typical HID lighting has steep lumen depreciation curves, losing as much as half its initial light output by the time it reaches midlife. Econergy is manufactured with technology Kumho Electric developed for the back light panel display industry, which reduces lumen depreciation to less than 30% over the 100,000-hour life of the lamp. Since HID lamps tend to be over-designed, providing higher initial lumens to compensate for fast degradation, wattage is being wasted due to expected light loss. Econergy's high lumen maintenance levels makes this over-compensation unnecessary.
In addition, Econergy provides much higher level of luminous efficacy (lumen/watt) due to scotopic factors: high color temperature (K) combined with high color rendering index (CRI). The resulting clean, crisp white light is better to read, work and sell under. Colors are truer and merchandise looks real. This better visual acuity is achieved using less energy than with other, higher-wattage lamps.
Gradual, minimal light depreciation ensures predictable, uniform illumination over many years.

Slashing Maintenance Costs
Re-lamping outdoor or high-bay fixtures is both costly and cumbersome, involving specialized equipment and maintenance crews. Since Econergy lamps have a rated life of 100,00 or longer than 10 years(*), they can be expected to last four to five times longer than typical HID lamps. This means the frequency of replacement goes down to virtually zero. Econergy induction lighting will pay for itself with energy and labor savings on spot replacement and re-lamping costs alone.

NOTES:
- Four components make up the Econergy system: lamp, power coupler, heat sink and generator
- Approximate lumen values listed are for vertical operation of the lamp
- Mean lumens is the approximate output at 40% of rated average life

Features & Benefits
- Very long life – 100,000 hours rated life translates to significant savings in maintenance costs
- High lumen output – 2,800 initial lumens
(40W lamp) to 11,250 initial lumens (150W lamp)
- Range of input voltage – each lamp has the ability to operate on voltages ranging from 120 to 277
- Gradual, minimal lumen depreciation – still at 70% luminosity at end of life means fewer replacements, more efficient lighting
- Outstanding color rendering – CRI of 80 provides for vivid, natural colors
- Range of color temperatures – choice of warm or cool light for desired effect and particular applications
|
- Stable output – relatively unaffected by fluctuations in line voltage, the Induction lamp output remains constant over wide ranges of inputs
- Instant-ON capability – because it does not require warm-up time to come to full luminescence, it can be controlled by occupancy sensors to provide further energy savings
- Hot and cold operation – performs on a wide range of environments --from -20° to 60°
- No flickering or noise – a distraction-free option for indoor or outdoor applications
- Low mercury – uses only 6 mgs of mercury,
a much more environmentally-friendly product than other alternatives
