Electrical Industry News for December 2024
Luminus Devices is expanding its Gen4 LED COB portfolio with two new Pico-COBs with high-output and very small light-emitting surfaces (LES) that enable spotlights with compact form factors, narrow beam angles, and high center beam candle power. Small, 6mm LES COBs are typically limited to approximately 9-degree viewing angles. Luminus’ new Pico-COBs enable fixtures with viewing angles as narrow as 3 to 5 degrees and produce high flux density, or punch, that is so important for high qual...
Every year, nearly 400,000 patients and countless medical professionals from around the world visit Mayo Clinic Health Systems’ main campus in Rochester, Minnesota and most of them need a place to sleep. The Destination and Medical Center Initiative, which champions Rochester as a global destination for health and wellness, recently celebrated the completion of one of its pioneering projects: the 5-star Hilton Legacy Hotel. top-tier low-voltage systems Building a luxury hotel in a medic...
Luminus Devices has significantly expanded its portfolio of high-power infrared (IR) LEDs with eleven emitters designed to address the rapid expansion of automotive, consumer, machine vision, medical, and security applications. The Luminus IR SST LEDs are now offered in three wavelengths – 810 nm, 850 nm, and 940 nm – and six beam angle options ranging from 40° to 130°. The high radiometric power output and low thermal resistance allow system designers to reduce the number...
The circuit breaker is a switching device that also offers protection by tripping & cutting off the supply to load in case of fault. Primarily the circuit breakers are used for switching different kinds of load in Industries, Buildings, Commercial Complexes, Hotels, etc. Need of a circuit breaker Many kinds of abnormal conditions are there that exist in the electrical system, which have the potential to damage the circuit & its components. These conditions are defined as ‘FAULTS...
While electricity has become an indispensable component for everyone, the fact is, it comes with its hazards to human life and property. Electrocution and fire being the two major risks associated with electricity, one cannot afford to be negligent when it comes to insulating equipment. Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) is an important safety measure when it comes to the protection of electrical circuits. It is a current sensing device, w...
MCB, MCCB, RCCB, and ELCB are circuit breakers but all of them are designed for serving a specific purpose. Before knowing about the differences among all, let’s get to know about them a little bit. What is MCB? MCB Stands for Miniature Circuit Breaker. It automatically switches OFF the electrical circuit during any abnormal condition in the electrical network such as overload & short circuit conditions. However, the fuse may sense these conditions but it has to be replaced though M...
The Zhuhai GuishanOffshore Project is the first green wind power demonstration project in China that uses jacket foundations, consisting of 27 units of My SE3.0-112 anti-typhoon wind turbines. The Project successfully withstood the test of Super Typhoon Mangkhut with an extreme speed of 70 m/s. The wind farm is located the Lingdingyang Bay in Zhuhai, and its straight-way distance to the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is only about 10 km. noise performance and environmental adaptability This mo...
Luminus Devices, Inc., a global manufacturer of high-performance LEDs and solid-state light sources, has released its Horticulture COBs with spectrums targeted for cannabis production. The new devices are available with 14mm and 22mm light emitting surfaces (LES) and provide best-in-class PPF and PPF/W performance. With operating power from 25W to 125W, the PPF range extends from 45µmol/s to over 150µmol/s with the larger 22mm LES. high PPF output "Horticulture COBs are perfectly...
