In recent years, the economic development and urbanization process has accelerated, and the demand for urban road lighting in China has also increased rapidly. Along with the increase in the number of street lamps, there is a significant increase in the amount of electricity used for road lighting. Road lighting is a long time and consumes a lot of electricity, which has become a big burden for local government departments.
Philips' new road dimming system, with its many technical advantages and good operability of “timed dimming safety and energy savingâ€, will promote the “highway†of road lighting everywhere.
Safety and energy saving - the ideal system for road lighting energy saving
The second half of the night when the traffic volume and the flow of people are greatly reduced are important time periods for road lighting energy conservation. Various street lamp management offices have adopted a number of methods to improve the electricity consumption of street lighting during this time period, but these methods can save electricity. However, there are often many traffic safety hazards.
The Philips Road Dimming System is a good way to achieve safety and energy savings by adjusting the resistance. It not only avoids the uneven brightness caused by the lighting of the partition lamp, but also does not need to add any large equipment, and does not affect the service life of the light source itself. This system consists of ballasts, triggers and timing controllers. The timing control system automatically reduces the power of the light source during a period of low traffic flow in the middle of the night according to a preset time. Four different dimming times of 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 hours can be selected according to actual needs. In order to avoid the traffic danger caused by the sudden decline of illumination of the entire road at a certain time, the timing mode of the Philips road dimming system adopts a “fuzzy†circuit design, which increases the timing inaccuracy and makes the illumination of the entire road uniform. And slowly drop to the set state.
Philips road dimming system not only ensures the uniformity of street lighting, but also protects the lighting needs of people traveling at night, and does not affect the safety of light source appliances. It has the dual functions of energy saving and power saving.
Fast return - the advantage of road dimming system
Under the premise of ensuring safety and energy conservation, receiving a good return on investment is an important factor that will be considered when selecting the energy-saving road lighting system by the street lamp management office in each region.
After dimming, the Philips road dimming system reduced the energy consumption of the light source by about 40% and the power consumption of the ballast by about 25%. Assuming that the lights are turned on for 12 hours a day, and each dimming time is 6 hours, a Philips BSD400W timing dimming system can save 328.5 kWh per year, and the electricity bill saves 230 yuan. If you use 1000 sets of Philips road dimming system on a road, you can save electricity by 230,000 yuan a year. With a service life of 5-6 years for street lamps, one road can save the country about 1.3 million yuan. It is understood that Philips' high-quality road dimming system has been successfully applied to cities such as Shanghai and Jinan.
The initial cost of the Philips road dimming system is low and the effect is quick, so that the “drip†payment is rewarded by the “springâ€. Assume that it lights up at 18:00 every night, dims at 23 o'clock in the evening, and turns off at 6 o'clock in the morning. According to the formula 250W, the electrical system can recover the cost in 12 months, and the 400W electrical system only takes 9 months. This is the real "energy saving and saving money."
Today, when urban road lighting and energy conservation need to develop together, choosing the right energy-saving equipment can achieve a win-win situation for both. The Philips Road Dimming System combines safety, energy efficiency and short-term investment returns with its state-of-the-art technology to bring road lighting to a whole new era.
