WE-EF LIGHTING debut a totally new concept in LED technology designed and built specifically for Urban Lighting applications. OLC stands for ‘One LED Concept’. This advanced technology harnesses the full power of the latest high output LEDs.
OLC is a ‘multi-layer’ technique. This means that every LED distributes the light in exactly the same way, which secures the distribution of light for the life of the installation. This technology uses an advanced lens, which WE-EF LIGHTING call as “butterfly lens”. Each LED is fitted with a butterfly so that each LED does precisely the same job. This creates a ‘multi-layer’ effect, which WE-EF LIGHTING call as ‘One LED Concept’ OLC. Multiple LEDs are mounted on removable heat sink modules. These modules are easily replaceable for upgradability and will be recycled by WE-EF LIGHTING.
The new RFL500 series luminaire has been developed expressly for LEDs. There are two body
sizes and four wattages; thermal management is the key to successful LED performance and this luminaire provides extraordinary heat dissipation. To protect the LEDs against overheating, say during undesired daytime operation, the control circuit incorporates an over-temperature sensor.
Benefits of the OLC include:
- Wider spacing compared with conventional post top luminaires
- A ‘future proof’ product (with LED efficacy set to double within three years)
- Reducing power consumption or higher light levels through life
- Bi-level switching for twin lighting levels is standard
- 99% recyclability
