LED spot light IP66 100W 9000LM with adjustable fixation

The word LED, which is the acronym for Light Emitting Diode, is a passive optoelectronic component characterized by its versatility, taking on many forms and being integrated into many optical elements, from screens to light bulbs and even photographic flashes.

One of its best features is its low energy consumption, as well as its longer lifespan, its durability that perfectly withstands almost any type of vibration, in addition to low heat emission.

The lumen (symbol: lm) is the unit of the International System of Units to measure the luminous flux, a measure of the light power emitted by the source. The luminous flux of radiant flux difference that the former provides the variable sensitivity of the eye to different wavelengths of light and the latter involves all electromagnetic radiation emitted by the source according Wien law and Stefan-Boltzmann regardless of whether such radiation is visible or not. 1 lm = 1 cd. sr = 1 lx. m2

hen we talk about IP code (International Protection) we talk about an international standard (IEC 60529) which classifies the protection against external factors, solid or liquid, that has a component or electronic device; LED strips, controllers, meters, security cameras, etc.

This alpha-numerically standard has been designed to sort different levels of protection. Nomenclature starts with IP followed by two numeric values.

- Example IP68:

The first value ranges from 0 to 6 and indicates the protection against solid agents. In this case, strong protection against dust.

The second value is between 0 and 8 and indicates the protection against liquid agents. In this case the complete and prolonged immersion during the time specified by the manufacturer.

We could say that the larger the number is greater IP protection has a device.

In below table, we can see different IP protections levels available.

IPXX	First digit (IPxx)	Second digit (IPxx)
0	Unprotected.	Unprotected.
1	Protection against objects of> 50 mm diameter.	Protection against vertically dripping water.
2	Protection against objects of> 12.5 mm diameter.	Protection against inclined drip water up to 15°.
3	Protection against objects of> 2 mm in diameter.	Protection against water projected from any direction, up to 60°.
4	Protection against objects of> 1 mm in diameter.	Protection against splashing water any direction.
5	Ingress of dust is not entirely revented, but it must not enter in sufficient quantity to interfere with the satisfactory operation of the equipment .	Protection against water jets.
6	Dust tight.	Protection against strong jets of water.
7		Protection against complete immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes.
8		Protection against complete and prolonged immersion.

When carrying out an electrical installation or electrical circuit several factors must be taken into account, one of them is the selection of the appropriate cable. According to the installation and the use of the same we can find different diameters that support different loads. The cable section will also help us not to overheat our installation, since the larger the section, the greater the thermal resistance.
In the following table poWe can see the corresponding load supported for the different sections of cables.

The degree Kelvin (K) is the unit used to classify the color temperature according to the scale created by William Thomsom from degrees Celsius. Lord Kelvin based on the table of William constructed a scale of temperatures to which its name is attributed to him.
A deeper explanation would introduce us into the world of physics, so in our sector knowing the relationship between Kelvins and kind of light will be sufficient.and.
This measurement factor is useful to know at a glance which tone or quality of light has a certain light source, for example, if we are going to buy a light bulb or a fluorescent we may be interested in knowing the kelvin it provides, as it will depend on This factor whether the light will be yellow or white.
The lower the kelvin value will be the light temperature, for example a 1600K bulb will have a temperatUra and color quality similar to the light of an exit or sunset. While a light bulb with 5000K will be more like daylight.
To better understand the relationship between kelvin and light temperature is attached the following table, where in a visual way it becomes easier to choose the type of bulb that best suits our needs.

A: It is equivalent to the temperature of a candle, it is aIn yellow light.

B: It resembles the color of dawn, it is similar to a tungsten bulb.

C: It is the tone of light of the old bulbs that were not led, filament bulb.

D: Similar to a study light.

E: Similar to mid-afternoon light about 20 °, similar to a fluorescent light warm.

F: Similar to mid-afternoon light at about 30 °.

G: Daylight, similar to a lightOf a flash.

H: Sunlight at noon.

I: Very sunny day and clear sky.

J: Partly cloudy day.

K: Cloudy day.

L: Wide shade clear day.

M: Very cloudy day.

N: Blue sky without sun.

O: Very clear day.

As it is common in installations we can find a standard of colors in the electric cables.

These regulations help at a glance to understand the connection and the resolution of possible faults or failures.

Below we attach the color/cable relation for electrical installations.

1. The ground wire can be identified in several ways:
• Green cable.
• C cablegreen smell with a yellow line.
• Cable without insulation.
2. The neutral wire will be blue.
3. The phase cable can be identified in several ways:
• Any color different from neutral or earth.
• Black insulation.
• Brown isolate.
• Gray insulation.

The insulating or insulating tape is a fundamental element when making a repair or performing an electrical installation. The insulating tape will help us to protect and insulate the electrical cables from possible crossings or contacts between them or with other elements, guaranteeing that the connection is well insulated avoiding possible short circuits.
Its use is very simple, since being a flexible material allows us to apply it with comfort.
To achieve a perfect union, it is recommended that we wrap the tape covering half the cable and half over the joint, stretching the tape slightly while rolling obliquely.

• For the ground wire, colored insulation tape will be used:
• Green.
• Green with a yellow line.
• For the neutral cable, blue insulating tape will be used.
• For the cable the phase isYou can use any other color:
• Any color different from neutral or earth.
• Black insulating tape.
• Brown insulating tape.
• Gray insulating tape.

VAC would be the abbreviation of Volt Altern Current which would be translated Volts of alternating current. The difference between VDC is that its sinusoidal oscillation achieving a more efficient energy transmission.

The alternating current is the energy that we receive in our homes, it is generated in the power plants by means of alternators.

The intensity of this type of current varies with time, and changes direction 50 times throughsecond (50hz). The generated voltage changes in the form of sine wave so it is not constant.

1. Current by pulsations.
2. Direct current (DC).
3. Alternating current (AC).
4. Variable current.

The COB Led (chip on board) is a plate (A) with a concentration of LEDs in the form of matrix (B) covered with a special silicone.
This type of led due to its design and installation allow to dissipate in a more efficient way the heat generated by the lighting.
It must be taken into account that the heat is generated in the opposite direction to the light and a low dissipation will cause the led to work in less optimal conditions.thus, its useful life.

Thanks to this design the Led COB is designed to work for long hours.
Its beam of light is multidirectional, so it is a type of diffuse light without dazzling at a point, achieving up to 160 º opening light and have a superior performance to the type of LED SMD.

Its manufacturing cost is 20% lower than an SMD led and its technology offers a reproducible indexchromatic ion (CRI) much higher, getting a better appreciation of colors.

In short, the COB LEDs can produce more lumens using much less energy than the rest of the LED technologies.
