Track lighting is a continuous track containing copper wire installed above the track, through the track can adjust the Angle and different optical design, thus providing spatial flexibility and variable lighting design. With the collocation of track, track light can effectively liberate the light from the traditional rigid restrictions through the light. The track system can be installed in the ceiling, wall, ground, beam or suspended in any space, and even reduce the cost of smallpox decoration.
In addition to LED and halogen bulbs, track lights can also select suitable light color temperature and irradiation area according to the lighting target, which can be roughly divided into the following three types:
1. Concentrating track light
Concentrating track light is less than the narrow beam Angle range of 20 degrees, can be a place for irradiation or item very conspicuous, but the range is small, light beam light directly, also can become more sharp pair of light spot will become apparent, concentrating track light usually suitable for using in statues, planting flowers, such as art, specific place adorn accent lighting. If used in home space, it is recommended to add soft light lens to modify the light.
2. Soft light track light
Soft light track light is 20-40 degrees in the light beam range, compared with the concentrated light track light, its light effect will be a little softer, can make the irradiated objects have a strong visual impact, and can not eat the line and texture of the irradiated objects. Soft light track light is suitable for wall, painting, photography, general walkway or plane art, etc.
3. Floodlight track light
Floodlight type track light is more than 50 degrees of wide Angle beam range, belongs to the floodlight source, because the scattering light range is large, can not focus on a single object, but also often together with the background and light source mixed together, more belongs to the atmosphere to create light source, can not guide the visual focus.
The differences between LED and halogen light bulb
1. Energy saving
For the same brightness track light, LED track light saves more energy than the previous halogen track light, the power consumption is only 40%-60% of the original, has a very significant energy saving effect.
2. Life
For common LED track lights from major brands, they can last up to 30,000 hours, while traditional track lights typically last only 8,000 hours.
3. Efficiency
The electro-optical conversion efficiency of LED track light can reach about 90%, with little heat, while about 80% of ordinary bulbs are converted into heat energy and only about 20% into light energy. Therefore, LED track light will be more efficient and energy saving.
4. Security
Halogen as the light source of the ordinary bulb, the luminous principle is the heavy metal element mercury gasification after the reaction with two electrodes to produce light, heat, radiation. LED is a cold light source, not easy to cause accidental fire in the process of use, relatively safe and secure. In addition, ordinary bulbs and fluorescent lights will flicker when the power supply is communicating, which is easy to cause visual damage, and is also a potential concern for the use of non-LED lights.
Track lights have many advantages, so that many home decoration also began to be widely used. Foshan Land Lighting can provide many kinds of track lights for you. If any interest, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
