Reliability and durability of LED lighting in the house

Operating conditions of lighting in livestock housing is very hard: high dust, corrosive environments, frequent cleaning with high-pressure devices. Therefore, when buying LED lamps is always a question of life and reliability.

The service life of the LEDs themselves are most dependent on the temperature of the phosphor. If the luminaire design provides high-quality heat dissipation, the LED can work more than 100,000 hours. Under the service life usually means a decrease in light output by 30% from the initial level. Further, poultry for most of the time used in the dimming lighting mode, which further increases the life cycle of the LED lighting system and can work without maintenance and repair of 15-20 years.>>>

The uniformity of illumination LED lamps in the poultry house

High-quality lighting in livestock buildings creates the conditions for a stress-free cultivation. Under the light quality is meant a set of parameters:. The uniformity of illumination, matching levels of illumination standard values, the possibility of brightness slide smoothly on and off lamps uniform distribution of light in the house significantly affects many growing indicators: weight gain, feed conversion, egg production, decomposes and cannibalism.

If chickens kept indoors since the first week of life, it is very important that all the lines were watering and feeding well lit and the chicks can easily find water and food. When it is dark in the early days may adversely affect the further growth indicators:. Conversion and weight gain at the content of parent stock on the floor should not be places with low light or with shadows. The entire space, except the connectors, it is necessary to illuminate brightly and evenly. Otherwise, possible egg laying on the floor in places dimming.

Lighting in the house must necessarily be dimmed. With high brightness of the bird can be aggressive, which will result in pecking and cannibalism. >>>

Innovative illuminated poultry

Despite the fact that LEDs are used in more than fifty years the art, their use as lighting was possible only in the last decade. With the introduction of white LEDs with a light output comparable to fluorescent lamps, a new stage of development of lighting systems for agriculture.>>>
