LED Lamp Coating Description

An LED (Light Emitting Diode) lamp (also called LED bar or Illuminator) is a type of solid state lighting  (SSL) that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as the source of light.

LED’s can be used as a direct substitute wherever you are using incandescent PAR or BR flood lights, compact fluorescents, or track lighting.

Glass Surface Systems, Inc. continues keeping up with the very latest in technology. Our patented U.S.D.A./FDA NSF-OSHA approved SureGuard™ formulation provides a tough, durable protective coating to a wide variety of LED incandescent lamps.

These lamp types produce very low heat. SureGuard™ with Mylon formulation maintains protection while withstanding surface temperatures up to 486 degrees constant. This large differential affords an additional safety zone for application errors thus ensuring complete safety at all times.

SureGuard™ is the only coating available that will not affect the C.R.I. (Color Rendering Index) or lumen output specified by professionals worldwide.  When your requirements call for shatterproof protection on these types of lamps you can depend on SureGuard™.  Other safety and custom color coatings for these types of lamps can reduce lumens and alter C.R.I. as much as 20%.

LEDs Come in Multiple Colors (to Customer Specifications) and Advantages Include:

· High efficiency - LEDs are now available that reliably   offer over 100 lumens from a one-watt device, or much higher outputs at higher drive currents

· Small size - provides design flexibility, arranged in rows, rings, clusters, or individual points

· High durability - no filament or tube to break

· Life span - in properly engineered lamps, LEDs can last 50,000 - 60,000 hours

· Full dimmability – unlike most fluorescent lamps, LEDs can be dimmed using pulse-width modulation (PWM - turning the light on and off very quickly at varying intervals). This also allows full color mixing in lamps with LEDs of different colors.

· Mercury-free - unlike fluorescent and most HID technologies, LEDs contain no hazardous mercury or halogen gases
