The Teardrop Light is an LED lighting device designed in the shape of a teardrop or bead. It typically features an aluminum alloy housing and a fully enclosed structure to ensure soft and uniform light distribution. This design helps minimize dust accumulation, making it suitable for environments with high cleanliness requirements.
Main Features
Easy Installation: Secured onto mounting rails via snap-fit clips, eliminating the need for complex screw fastening. Installation efficiency is more than three times higher than traditional lighting fixtures.
High Luminous Efficacy & Energy Saving: Boasts a luminous efficacy of 108 LM/W, allowing for fewer fixtures to achieve the same illuminance level, thereby reducing energy consumption.
Strong Durability: Constructed from aluminum alloy with a stainless steel-like finish, offering corrosion resistance and color stability.
Light Control: Certain models are equipped with a yellow filter film that blocks visible light with wavelengths below 500nm, making them suitable for yellow-light environments such as lithography rooms.
Primary Applications
Teardrop Lights are primarily used in the following fields:
Cleanrooms and Dust-Free Workshops: Such as electronics factories, pharmaceutical plants, hospital operating rooms, and other environments requiring Class 100 or higher cleanliness, providing contamination-free lighting.
Industrial and Laboratory Settings: Including bioengineering, precision instrument manufacturing, and other venues requiring protection against dust and corrosion.
Lamp Body Material
Aluminum Alloy Profile: This is the most commonly used material for the lamp body due to its excellent heat dissipation, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength. It is particularly suited for high-cleanliness environments like dust-free workshops and laboratories.
Lens/Shade Material
ABS (Impact-Resistant Material): Some Teardrop Lights use ABS lenses, which offer anti-aging properties. The inner linear prism pattern effectively prevents glare and ensures even light distribution.
PC (Polycarbonate): PC material provides good light transmittance and strong weatherability. It is often used in fixtures requiring high transparency or UV protection design.
Other Auxiliary Materials
Aluminum Substrate: Used as the circuit board for LED chips, providing good heat dissipation and electrical conductivity.
Plastic Housing: Some low-wattage or specific application Teardrop Lights may use plastic housings to reduce costs, but it's important to note their relatively weaker heat dissipation and durability.
Material Selection Recommendations
High-Cleanliness Environments: Prioritize the combination of an aluminum alloy lamp body with an ABS/PC lens to ensure easy cleaning, dust prevention, and uniform light distribution.
Explosion-Proof or Special Environments: Focus on the fixture's protection rating (e.g., IP65) and corrosion resistance rating (e.g., WF2). Materials must meet the relevant standards.
Common Specifications and Lengths
The length and power of Teardrop Lights are typically customized based on the application and requirements. Common specifications include:
300mm (0.3 meters): Power 10W
600mm (0.6 meters): Power 12W
900mm (0.9 meters): Power approx. 18W
1200mm (1.2 meters): Power approx. 20W
Non-standard customization is supported, offering various sizes, power options, dimming capabilities, and waterproof designs.
