Advantages of Using LED Lighting Fixtures in Warehouses with High Bay Ceilings

Dec 22nd 2016

One way to pinpoint the many advantages LEDs have over other light options is to compare the various benefits and drawbacks of each light option with those of LEDs.

For example, LEDs and fluorescent bulbs and fixtures are both extremely energy-efficient, but fluorescents are typically made from glass (which can be hazardous if broken) and fluorescents contain mercury (which can be dangerous if cracked or shattered).

Fortunately, LEDs are not made from glass, which makes them tough to break, and LEDs do not contain mercury, which means LEDs are less hazardous to the environment than fluorescents.

Now, if you were to go down the line and compare every light technology with comparable LED fixtures and bulbs, then eventually you would reach this conclusion: LEDs beat out other light options in every category.

Here are a number of advantages that come along with the installation of LED high bay light fixtures in warehouse settings:

1. LEDs Deliver Bright Illumination and Great Light Coverage

The operations that take place in warehouse settings generally require bright light and sufficient light coverage in order to be done properly; therefore, typical light fixtures in warehouse settings include fluorescents and metal halide lamps, because these lamps can deliver the levels of illumination warehouses need.

Opportunely, LEDs are capable of delivering the same amazing illumination and coverage as fluorescent and metal halide lamps. And, what’s better, LEDs do exactly what conventional light options do, but use less energy to do so.

2. LEDs Use Less Energy to Provide the Same Brightness

Let’s say a warehouse currently uses a number of 1,000-watt High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps. These lights require 1,000 watts of electricity to produce 43,800 lumens. LED lamps can produce this same level of brightness using only 320 watts.

By using less electricity to deliver the same amount of illumination, the installation of LEDs can help warehouses cut energy costs radically.

3. LEDs Last Longer Than Other Light Options

With ceilings ranging from 15 feet to 45 feet, it can definitely be a difficult task to replace burnt out bulbs in warehouse settings; however, the frequency of burning out bulbs can be drastically reduced with the installation of LED fixtures or LED retrofits.

This is because LEDs last much longer than conventional light options and can last as long as 50,000 hours. With the installation of LEDs, warehouse light fixtures will burn out less often, which means less bulb replacements and repairs.
