How To Choose LED High Bay Lights?

LED High Bay Light

Considering installing new LED high bay lights or replacing existing fixtures? Let’s explore how to choose the right LED high bay lights and determine the quantity needed for your project with Haloitte Lighting.

Is LED High Bay Lighting the Right Solution for Your Space?

Before estimating the number of fixtures required, it's important to determine if LED high bay lights are the best fit for your environment.

  • Ceiling Height: Are your ceilings 15-20 feet or higher?
  • Illumination Needs: Do you require uniformly bright lighting for tasks such as assembly lines, storage areas, or sports facilities?
  • Environment: Are you looking for fixtures that can endure harsh industrial conditions and high temperatures?

If you answered “yes” to these questions, LED high bay lights from Haloitte Lighting are likely the ideal solution.

Calculating the Number of LED High Bay Lights

To determine the right quantity of LED high bay lights for optimal lighting levels and coverage, consider the following steps:

  1. Assess Total Illuminance Needed: Illuminance, measured in foot-candles (fc) or lux (lx), indicates the light intensity on a surface. Different areas have specific lighting requirements based on their use.

  2. Match Illuminance to Space Usage: Identify the activities conducted in the space and refer to lighting standards to establish the recommended illuminance levels. For example, warehouses typically need 30-50 fc (320-540 lx) for general tasks, with higher levels required for detailed work.

  3. Choose Suitable Lumen Output: Lumen output measures the total light emitted by a fixture. Evaluate the efficiency and output of Haloitte Lighting’s LED high bay lights to ensure adequate brightness.

  4. Perform Lighting Layout Analysis: Use design software or calculators to simulate lighting layouts. Consider room dimensions, mounting height, desired illuminance, and fixture specifications.

  5. Balance Beam Angle and Fixture Spacing: The beam angle affects light distribution, with wider angles covering larger areas and narrower ones providing focused lighting. Optimize fixture spacing and beam angles to ensure uniform illumination.

By following these steps, you can confidently select and install Haloitte Lighting LED high bay lights to meet your project's specific needs.
