Since January 1, 2014, after the US government announced a comprehensive ban, the North American market is gradually becoming a new industry growth hotspot, and the demand for LED lighting is booming. According to the latest market report, North America accounts for about 25% of the global LED lighting market. As far as commercial lighting is concerned, the existing North American commercial market is dominated by Troffeer and T-tube lamps. Different from the domestic market, the North American market is more mature and rational, the relevant policies and regulations are relatively perfect, and the testing requirements for products are also high.
The main performance standards for LED lamps in the North American market are: Energy Star EnergyStar, DLC (TheDesignLightsConsortium), LEDLightingFacts, as shown in the following table, their test standards and application range are not the same:
LEDLightingFacts: All products marked with LEDLightingFacts must be provided with an IES-LM-79-08 test report from an EPA accredited laboratory.
DLC: The DLC certified product catalogue is used in the promotion of high performance LED luminaires that are not covered by the ENERGY STAR standard throughout the United States, and its scope does not coincide with the ENERGY STAR product range, ie if ENERGY STAR puts the product After being included in its system, DLC permanently transferred the product.
EnergyStar: ENERGY STAR tested products first pass safety testing, provide IES-LM-79-08 test report and life report according to LM-80-08, TM-21-11, and energy test time It is fixed. The market supervision of ENERGY STAR is very strict. EPA will conduct regular random inspections on all products that receive ENERGY STAR from the market every year. If you fail to check the products that are not qualified, you must immediately cancel the ENERGY STAR qualification and have the right. Let the manufacturer make further compensation to the consumer.
According to the statistics of the commercial lighting market, in terms of commercial lighting, the existing North American commercial lighting market is dominated by Trofter, T-tube and other linear lamps. The following table is the DLC technical requirements form v2.1 released on October 2, 2013: LEDTroffer replacement lamp specification standards:
DLC Technical Requirements Form v2.1 (SpecificationReleaseWebinar): LEDTroffer Replacement Lamp Specification Standard DLC has different requirements for different sizes of linear luminaires, and has added stricter spatial distribution requirements. DLC requires a minimum luminous flux of 800 lm for two-inch linear luminaires (half the size of a 4-inch luminaire) with a minimum luminous efficacy of 100 lm/W, while for its 3-lamps, the minimum luminous throughput of 2000 lm is required for minimum luminous efficacy. The 85lm/W.DLCv2.1 does not have a further specification for U-tubes, so this standard does not apply to U-tubes.
The latest version of the Energy Star Lighting V1.0 specification, implemented in September 2014, allows new product models to be automatically certified, as long as the changes in these models do not violate any performance standards or any other requirements of the specification. In addition, this specification updates the tolerance portion to align the specific tolerance with the safety reporting requirements in UL 1993, and the test data used to measure color temperature changes has also been extended. The tolerance range of luminous efficiency and light output value is clarified. The reference to the new model has been removed for the specific product variant. For new models that do not require first-time certification and tolerances outside the allowable range, an ENERGY STAR certificate is required after at least 3,000 hours of testing.
For lamps that claim a lifetime of 25,000 hours, ENERGY STAR certification can be achieved if a specific lumen maintenance rate target is achieved after 3000 hours of testing. However, for a complete (non-temporary) service life certification, the luminaire must be tested for 6,000 consecutive hours. For lamps that have a service life of 30,000 to 50,000 hours, the test time required for temporary certification and complete certification can be deduced. For example, a luminaire with a service life of 30000/50000 is required to pass the full service life certification and must be tested for 7500 hours and 12500 hours respectively.
Familiarity with the relevant North American standards is not only the key to entering the North American market, but also a reference for the domestic regulated market. For example, there have been reports in the media that the Guangzhou Municipal Administration of Industry and Commerce has failed to pass the 50-sampling inspection of LED bulbs. Some enterprises can only recall the problem products. Some enterprises shouted and thought that the industrial and commercial departments only checked for safety. Performance, it is difficult to regulate the role of the market. Only by issuing relevant standards as soon as possible, strengthening the detection of LED lighting safety and core performance indicators can truly play a role in regulating the market.
