The life cycle of the LED grow light is generally 50000h. Counting the influence of various factors, the life cycle of the LED plant growth light will be greatly reduced. Therefore, we need to extend the life cycle of the LED grow light supplement and ensure its use effect. There are many places worthy of our attention, mainly as follows:
1. Installation of LED grow lights. Whether it is the first installation or repeated installation, you must follow the installation steps in the lamp instruction manual to complete step by step, and choose the installation conditions of different models of LED plant growth lamps, such as: lamp connection method, how many units are connected, and so on.
2. The voltage should be controlled at about the normal voltage of the LED grow light, and the difference should not be too large or too small. If the voltage is too large, it will directly burn the lamp. The voltage does not meet the standard for the use of LED plant growth lights. The effect of plant lighting is not obvious and long. The time low pressure is equivalent to the LED plant growth light chip being hungry for a long time, causing harm.
3. Clean LED grow lights. Any electrical equipment is the same, there will always be a lot of dust after a long time. The cleaning of LED grow light needs regular external and internal cleaning:
External cleaning is to clean the exterior of the lamp to ensure a clean and tidy appearance. The light-transmitting shell is clean, and the LED grow light must maintain a long-term and high-efficiency work.
The main purpose of internal cleaning is to make the LED grow light better dissipate heat and be more efficient. It should be noted that when cleaning the interior, do not wipe it with a wet towel to avoid corrosion of related metal parts. You can use wind blowing or a soft brush to clean it.
4. LED grow light environment. The operating environment of the LED plant growth lamp determines its life to some extent, mainly due to air humidity and ventilation. Although the LED plant growth lamp has reached the IP66 protection level, it can already face many harsh conditions, but It is better to be in a dry place as much as possible. In the case of ventilation, it is mainly for heat dissipation.
5. LED grow light power supply selection
The main characteristics of the external power supply are:
(1) It is conducive to heat dissipation, especially when high-power LED grow lights are running, they will generate a lot of heat. External power supply will not cause much problem to the heat dissipation of LED grow lights.
(2) It is inconvenient to install and disassemble. For the LED high-power grow lights, the number of high-power grow lights that can be carried by a single power supply is limited, and the use efficiency cannot be guaranteed. It is inconvenient to move too many lines when it is necessary to move. Conducive to daily maintenance.
The main features of the built-in power supply are:
(1) The characteristic of the built-in power supply is that it is convenient to install and disassemble and is more practical. The built-in power supply will save a lot of daily maintenance troubles, and the integrated design is also convenient to move and install.
(2) Heat dissipation is a problem that all electronic products are always inseparable from. The low-power LED grow lights and the lamp bead chips are more evenly distributed, and the distance is relatively appropriate. No special heat dissipation measures are required; it is better to go back to the high-power LED grow lights. , It dissipates more heat and requires a separate heat sink. Although the cost of materials and technology will increase, the built-in power supply has become a more acceptable way for consumers.
The above are some methods to pay attention to at ordinary times. In fact, the better way is to check, clean and maintain the LED grow lights frequently, so as to make the life cycle of the LED grow lights longer.
