What is an LED Batten Fixture?

An LED batten fixture is a long, linear lighting solution that is known for its durability, energy efficiency, and versatility. These fixtures are used across various industrial and commercial applications such as warehouses, parking lots, production lines, supermarkets, and office spaces. The slim, elongated design makes them ideal for illuminating large areas evenly.

Types of LED Batten Fixtures

1. Weatherproof LED Batten Lights: Ideal for outdoor or harsh environments where dust, water, or extreme temperatures are present. These fixtures typically offer IP65 or higher protection ratings.

2. Emergency LED Batten Fixtures: Equipped with backup batteries to provide lighting in the event of power outages, ensuring safety in critical areas like stairwells and tunnels.

3. Dimmable LED Batten Lights: These fixtures come with dimming capabilities (0-10V or PWM dimming), which allow users to adjust brightness based on need, enhancing energy savings and extending the fixture's lifespan.

4. Tri-Colour LED Batten Lights: These allow for flexible control over color temperature (3000K, 4000K, and 6000K), making them suitable for environments requiring adaptable lighting conditions.

Features to Consider When Choosing an LED Batten Fixture

• Installation Location: Consider if your fixture will be used indoors or outdoors. For outdoor areas, weatherproof LED fixtures are crucial.
• Power Consumption: Evaluate the power ratings, generally between 18W and 44W, ensuring that the fixture provides adequate brightness (measured in lumens) for the space while minimizing energy consumption.
• Protection Rating: Look for IP65 or higher to ensure dust and water resistance, especially in industrial environments.
• Color Temperature: For commercial or industrial applications, 4000K or 5000K is ideal for natural white light, promoting productivity and visibility.

When selecting, consider the layout of the area and the type of work being done. For example, a production line may benefit from cooler light (5000K), while areas like retail spaces may prefer warmer or adjustable color temperatures.

Benefits of Using LED Batten Fixtures

1. Energy Efficiency: LED batten fixtures can reduce energy consumption by up to 60% compared to traditional fluorescent lighting. This translates into significant cost savings, especially in large-scale applications.

2. Longevity: With an average lifespan of 54,000 hours (L70), these fixtures dramatically reduce maintenance costs by requiring fewer replacements.

3. Environmental Impact: LED lighting has a lower carbon footprint than traditional lighting sources, aligning with sustainability goals in industrial settings.

4. Durability: The robust housing of LED batten lights, often made from materials like polycarbonate or steel, offers high impact resistance (IK08 or higher), making them ideal for industrial environments.

Application Range

• Warehouses: Our LED batten lights provide uniform, bright lighting for vast spaces, ensuring worker safety and efficiency.
• Supermarkets and Retail: Their even distribution of light enhances product visibility, creating an appealing shopping environment.
• Factories and Production Lines: The bright, flicker-free light from LED battens improves worker accuracy and safety in high-precision tasks.
• Parking Lots and Tunnels: Weatherproof and impact-resistant LED batten fixtures are perfect for outdoor and underground applications.

Advantages Over Fluorescent and Incandescent Lighting

Buying Guide: How to Choose the Best LED Batten Fixture

1. Consider Your Space: Calculate the size of the area that needs lighting. For instance, a warehouse of 100 square meters typically requires about 10,000 lumens. Depending on the fixture’s lumens per watt (usually around 110-140 lm/W), you can determine the number of fixtures needed.

2. Check the Certifications: Always look for certifications such as CE, RoHS, and LM80 to ensure that your fixtures meet safety and performance standards.

3. Evaluate Energy-Saving Incentives: Many regions offer energy rebates or incentives for switching to LED lighting. These programs can offset the initial cost, making LED batten lights even more affordable.

How to Install LED Batten Fixtures

Installation is straightforward with our LED batten lights. Depending on the application, you can choose surface-mounted, suspended, or linkable installations. For detailed instructions, refer to COMLED's operating manual. Make sure to follow local electrical codes and ensure all wiring is secure.

For a large factory or warehouse, for instance, proper spacing is key. A general rule is to place fixtures 2-3 meters apart for optimal light distribution.
