Overview table<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The overview table<\/a> is explained on the OliNo website.<\/p>\n

Please note that this overview table makes use of calculations, use this data with care as explained on the OliNo site. E (lux) values are not accurate, when within 5 x 1220 mm \u2248 6100 mm. Within this distance from the lamp, the measured lux values willl be less than the computed values in this overview as the measurements are then within the near field of the lamp.<\/p>\n

EU Energy label classfication<\/a><\/h3>\n

With the measurement results of the luminous flux and the consumed power the classification on energy of this lamp is calculated. This information is requested in the EU for certain household lamps, see also the OliNo site<\/a> that explains for which lamps it is requested, how the label looks like and what information it needs to contain.<\/p>\n

Herewith the labels for this lamp in color and black and white.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Eulumdat light diagram<\/h3>\n

This light diagram below comes from the program Qlumedit<\/a>, that extracts these diagrams from an Eulumdat<\/a> file. It is explained<\/a> on the OliNo site.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The light diagram giving the radiation pattern.<\/em><\/p>\n

It indicates the luminous intensity around the light bulb. The C0-C180 plane is along the width direction of the lamp) and is somewhat wider than the C90-C270 plane (along the length direction of the lamp) since the tube ends block the light towards the length direction.<\/p>\n

Illuminance Ev at 1 m distance, or luminous intensity Iv<\/h3>\n

Herewith the plot of the averaged<\/em> luminous intensity Iv as a function of the inclination angle with the light bulb.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The radiation pattern<\/a> of the light bulb.<\/em><\/p>\n

This radiation pattern is the average of the light output of the light diagram given earlier. Also, in this graph the luminous intensity is given in Cd.<\/p>\n

These averaged values are used (later) to compute the lumen output.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Intensity data of every measured turn angle at each inclination angle.<\/em><\/p>\n

This plot shows per inclination angle the intensity measurement results for each turn angle at that inclination angle. There normally are differences in illuminance values for different turn angles. However for further calculations the averaged values will be used.<\/p>\n

When using the average values per inclination angle, the beam angle<\/a> can be computed, being 119\u00ba for the C0-C180 and 103\u00ba for the C90-C270 plane.<\/p>\n

Luminous flux<\/a><\/h3>\n

With the averaged illuminance data at 1 m distance, taken from the graph showing the averaged radiation pattern, it is possible to compute the luminous flux<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The result of this computation for this light spot is a luminous flux of 2066 Lm.<\/p>\n

Luminous efficacy<\/a><\/h3>\n

The luminous flux being 2066 Lm, and the power of the light bulb being 24.0 W, yields a luminous efficacy of 86 Lm\/W.<\/p>\n

The reported efficacy is for the ledmodules only, without an eventual power supply needed to transform 230 V AC into 24 V DC. Such a power supply would normally lead to additional power consumption.<\/p>\n

Side view, emissivity check.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

The aluminum material reads an almost equal temperature than the (low reflecting) masking tape. So the emissivity of the masking tape is about the same as that of the aluminum. This is a high emissivity for the aluminum which means it can radiate heat well.<\/p>\n

Color temperature and Spectral power distribution<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The spectral power distribution of this light bulb, energies on y-axis valid at 1 m distance.<\/em><\/p>\n

The measured color temperature is about 4700 K which is neutral white.<\/p>\n

This color temperature is measured straight underneath the light bulb. Below a graph showing the color temperature for different inclination angles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Color temperature as a function of inclination angle.<\/em><\/p>\n

The measurement of CCT is measured for inclination angles up to 80\u00ba. Beyond this angle the illuminance is very low (< 5 lux).<\/p>\n

The beam angle is 119\u00ba, meaning a 59.5\u00ba inclination angle. In this area most of the light is present. The variation in correlated color temperature in this area is about 1.5 %.<\/p>\n

PAR value and PAR spectrum<\/a><\/h3>\n

To make a statement how well the light of this light bulb is for growing plants, the PAR-area needs to be determined. See the OliNo website <\/a>how this all is determined and the explanation of the graph.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The photon spectrum, then the sensitivity curve and as result the final PAR spectrum of the light of this light bulb<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
parameter<\/th>\nvalue<\/th>\nunit<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
PAR-number<\/td>\n5.3<\/td>\n\u03bcMol\/s\/m\u00b2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

PAR-photon efficacy<\/td>\n0.7<\/td>\n\u03bcMol\/s\/W<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The PAR efficiency is 63 % (valid for the PAR wave length range of 400 – 700 nm). So maximally 63 % of the total of photons in the light is effectively used by the average plant (since the plant might not take 100 % of the photons at the frequency where its relative sensitivity is 100 %).<\/p>\n

S\/P ratio<\/a><\/h3>\n

The S\/P ratio and measurement is explained on the OliNo website<\/a>. Here the results are given.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThe power spectrum, sensitivity curves and resulting scotopic and photopic spectra (spectra energy content defined at 1 m distance).<\/em><\/p>\n

The S\/P ratio is 1.6.<\/p>\n

More info on S\/P ratio can be found on the OliNo website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chromaticity diagram<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The chromaticity space<\/a> and the position of the lamp’s color coordinates in it.<\/em><\/p>\n

The light coming from this lamp is inside the area of class A. This is an area defined for signal lamps, see also the OliNo website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Its coordinates are x=0.3569 and y=0.3758.<\/p>\n

Color Rendering Index (CRI) or also Ra<\/a><\/h3>\n

Herewith the image showing the CRI as well as how well different colors are represented (rendered). The higher the number, the better the resemblance with the color when a black body radiator would have been used (the sun, or an incandescent lamp). Practical information and also some critics about the CRI can be found on the OliNo website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each color has an index Rx, and the first 8 indexes (R1 .. R8) are averaged to compute the Ra which is equivalent to the CRI.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

CRI of the light of this lightbulb.<\/em><\/p>\n

The value of 67 is lower than to the value 80 which is considered a minimum value for indoor usage.<\/p>\n

Note: the chromaticity difference is 0.0073 indicates the distance to the Planckian Locus<\/a>. There is no norm yet that states what the max deviation from white light is allowed to be. A reference with signal lights as a reference is given in the chromaticity<\/a> diagram.<\/p>\n

Voltage dependency<\/a><\/h3>\n

The dependency of a number of lamp parameters on the lamp voltage is determined. For this, the lamp voltage has been varied and its effect on the following light bulb parameters measured: illuminance E_v [lx], the lamppower P [W] and the luminous efficacy [Lm\/W].<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Lamp voltage dependencies of certain light bulb parameters, where the value at 24 V is taken as 100 %.<\/em><\/p>\n

The illuminance and consumed power vary insignificantly when the voltage is varied.<\/p>\n

When the voltage at 24 V varies with + and – 0.5 V, then the illuminance varies \u2248 0.5 %, so when abrupt voltage changes occur this effect is not visible in the illuminance output.<\/p>\n

Warm up effects<\/a><\/h3>\n

After switch on of a cold lamp, the effect of heating up of the lamp is measured on illuminance E_v [lx], the lamppower P [W] and the luminous efficacy [lm\/W].<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Effect of warming up on different light bulb parameters. The 100 % level is put at the beginning.<\/em><\/p>\n

The warm up time is about 35 minutes during which the illuminance decreases 7 % and the consumed power does not vary significantly.<\/p>\n

Measure of flickering<\/a><\/h3>\n

An analysis is done on the measure of flickering of the light output by this light bulb. See the OliNo site<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n
