Components OF LED BULB

In this article we will look at what is one LED bulb. The bowels, which is formed every LED bulb, bypassing the diode or chip, we see that they have much more technology than it at first we might think for an object a priority as simple as it may seem a simple light bulb. We will focus on multi LED bulbs, being the most complex.

Key components of all LED bulb.

Cap or basis - the cap or base, is the part of the bulb with power connected. It also allows quick and easy bulb change if necessary. Clean Energy Systems LED bulbs use the same type that we find in traditional incandescent bulbs, so no need to worry about changing your lamps. You just have to choose the right model, remember that exist in the market many types of them (E27, E14, GU10, GU5.3 ...).

Conductor - LEDs are low voltage devices. Many domestic and commercial light bulbs, such as GU10 and E27 types are designed to operate at a voltage (220v). In order that you can use an LED bulb voltage appropriate network, something called a transformer is required. The electronic conductor (or driver) acts as a transformer, lowering the voltage to be compatible with LEDs. With low voltage bulbs such as MR16 type, the transformer is separated from the bulb.

Heat sink - When converting electricity to light a small amount of heat is generated, although less than a halogen bulb, the heat inside an LED bulb cannot escape so easily and stays inside. To be effective, this heat must be removed and therefore sophisticated heat sinks are used in this type of bulbs. The heat sinks are made ​​of a highly conductive material (metal, ceramic) and are designed to remove the heat of both the LEDs and the air around them. By keeping fresh LEDs, the heat sink ensures its longevity. The LED bulbs that have heat sinks low quality are likely to be damaged very easily, hence the importance of acquiring contrasted brands we offer such quality in all its components.

Matrix LEDs - Instead of having a single LED, there are several leads bulbs that are embedded in a plate. These matrices usually consist of a special type called SMD LED, which are much more compact and can be soldered onto the board.

Lens or optical - The LED emits light in a rather wide angle. In order to control the distribution of light. Clean Energy Systems design special glasses that close the angle of light to focus the beam on a given area. This allows us to save and get many more solutions in decoration, for example.

We pay special attention to when purchasing our LED bulbs in Canada, just because two bulbs may look similar, does not mean they are equal. Very cheap bulbs typically make use of low-quality conductive heat sinks or fail after a short time of use. The best recommendation is always going to prove brands, in this case the price will not be an obstacle in exchange for the assurance that we are buying a 100% reliable in each of its components product.
