The Luxeon Lamps
are on display at Lightfair International taking
place in New York through Thursday of this week
in booth 2219. The company's patented Luxeon Power Light Sources
are the first to combine the brightness
of conventional lighting with
the small footprint, long life and other advantages of LEDs.

Industry-first off-the-shelf
LED lamp solves color
matching and simplifies LED use
Lightfair International
Lumileds Lighting today introduced new
color-matched white Luxeon(R) Lamps that enable lighting manufacturers
to quickly build LED-based luminaires with consistent white light for
the first time. Luxeon Lamps
are
suitable for a wide range of luminaires including track, recessed,
display, cove, outdoor
and other retail and exterior applications.nightlights smithy
Advanced binning algorithms applied during
manufacturing
ensure color uniformity within each fixture as well as
from luminaire to luminaire. And
because
EFO ICE generates no heat in the freezer case, the energy load
requirements to keep the case cold
are reduced, saving additional energy.
Approximately 30% of electricity consumed in US buildings
is used for lighting
with most existing bulbs creating more heat than light.candelabras whirled

Uniform white light is
essential
in luminaires, but achieving a consistent color temperature
with LEDs has been a major challenge
because of the wide color
variations inherent in the LED manufacturing process.

Fewer LEDs to achieve the desired light output
Each lamp consists of
multiple white Luxeon delivering correlated
color temperatures of 3200K (warm white), 4100K (commercial
white) or
5500K (cool white). The matched Luxeon are mounted in multiple
configurations offering
light output levels of 500-1200 lumens and CRI
similar to or better than conventional solutions.
About Lumileds Lighting
Lumileds Lighting is the world's leading manufacturer of
high

Each lamp can be integrated with drivers, heat sink and optics to
form complete lighting
systems that deliver 1-2 year payback when
replacing incandescent and halogen luminaires. Typical
halogen and incandescent
down lights deliver 7 to 15 lumens per watt. Fiberstars

"This
is more than a 15% improvement in Fiberstars EFO efficiency," said
Roger Buelow, Fiberstars CTO,
"and is an example of Fiberstars' continuing
commitment to develop and perfect energy efficient lighting
systems. Typically one 70 watt EFO lamp can reduce energy
consumption by more than 80% when compared
to incandescent or halogen
solutions.
