Cold Rooms (used for large- and medium-scale deep-freezing applications, such as in the freezing of food products) have very specialised lighting requirements due to the low temperature and high moisture con-tent present in such environments.
LED lighting is most ideally suited for such applications, due to the following main benefits:
- LED performance does not diminish in cold temperatures
(unlike other lamps – in fact, the light output increases as the temperature drops – by up to +10% at -20°Centigrade)
- LEDs use much less energy and radiate little or no heat with the
light output, and so reduce refrigeration load
- LEDs light instantly in the cold – other lamps (mercury, sodium or metal halide) can take up to 10 minutes to strike
- LEDs have a much longer life than conventional lamps, and so maintenance costs are much lower.
Enertech Cold Room Luminaires are ideal for commercial cold rooms, food processing centres, hotels, restaurants, high moisture areas and any location that requires a healthy environment. The totally sealed housing of the fixture maintains ceiling integrity and protects against infiltration of particles and airborne bacteria.
