Constant light output
If constant light output technology used,
the light output luminaire remains
constant over the lamp life. The
luminaire manufacturer has specify these
parameters for all their luminaires.
The values are quoted rated values.
ATTENTION: The light output and luminous
efficacy for built-in LED modules are higher
than those the luminaires, that these
cannot compared with each other.
This takes into account the fact that minor
fluctuations may occur between the individual
measured values during the production
period luminaire type consequence
of production conditions.

Rated light output LED luminaires
Initial illuminance the start operation

Luminous efficacy LED luminaires
Initial value for the ratio light output to
input power (lm/W). The
operating efficiency not normally shown

Light output, output and luminous efficacy
The light output, output and luminous
efficacy are important key parameters to
describe the efficiency LED luminaires.
The maximum deviation may +10%
(tolerance). The measured
output rises the maximum value relative to
the reduction light output the LED type
used. This maximum input power corresponds
to the initial value with maximum light
output.
Rated output LED luminaires
Initial input power luminaire (W). This
information contains the losses the light-
deflecting and light-shielding components of
the luminaire and thus the effect the
