To light up the entire football field, it takes about 30 minutes. Floodlights from 40,000 watts to 200,000 watts. The actual wattage required depends on the stadium’s lighting requirements, scale, ceiling height, pole height and lighting type. For sports fields that require 1000 lux or 3000 lux levels, this will result in a completely different total power consumption.
If you use a 2000-watt metal halide, halogen or HPS lamp per lamp, you can reduce power consumption by half or more by switching to an LED lamp. That said, LEDs from 500W to 1000W produce almost the same brightness as HID lighting. The advantage is that the operating cost of lighting is reduced. This is because the total wattage is reduced.
LED lights do not contain toxic elements. LED not only saves the cost and time required for disposal, but also helps protect the environment from more toxic waste.
The quality of LED light distribution is better, focusing on one direction. This means that to achieve the same brightness emitted by fluorescent and incandescent lamps, fewer LED lamps are required. Fewer lamps will reduce energy consumption, so it is good for the environment.
The lifespan of LED lights is six times that of other types of lights, reducing the need for frequent replacement. This results in the use of fewer lamps and therefore fewer resources required for the production process, packaging materials and transportation.
Tall mast lighting is a tall pole with the top light pointing towards the ground, which is usually but not always used for highway or entertainment lighting. It is used in places that require large-area lighting.
According to the height of the shelf, multiply this number by 8 W/m2 or 10 W/m2. For example, your building area is 800 square meters, but the shelves are less than 75% of the aisle lighting. You multiply 800 by 8, which means your lighting power margin is 64000 watts.
Most existing stadium lights use high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps, such as metal halides, high-pressure sodium, and mercury vapor lamps. With the developing of the LED lighting technology, these problems are eliminated – many sports venues are turning to LED lights. Because LED light is more energy saving and long-life.
As the name suggests, high bay lights are used to illuminate high ceiling spaces. This usually means that the ceiling ranges from 20 feet to about 45 feet. On the other hand, low bay lights are used for ceilings of 20 feet and below.
A floodlight is a lighting device that emits broad and bright artificial lighting. It can be applied to almost all types of sports fields. Floodlights describe the general type of lighting. However, when the huge stadium is to be lit, the floodlight will have a special design.
First, the optics have been redesigned to transmit light over long distances. Our idea is that we need to keep the lights flooding the football field at a wide beam angle while reducing light scattering that causes light pollution.
Secondly, our stadium lighting uses advanced aerodynamic design to reduce air resistance. Our LED lights are designed with an open structure to improve air circulation. This function is essential for lights installed on high masts.
In addition, light-weight lighting is preferred because sometimes we may need to install up to 20 to 40 floodlights on the pole. If the light is heavy, we may need to reinforce the pole. The cost is even comparable to the lamp itself! We use high-quality aluminum alloy with high strength but light weight.
