240W Solar LED Street Light

Key features:

• High Power Output (240W): The “240W” typically refers to the equivalent incandescent wattage or the high lumen output of the LED array, indicating a very bright light suitable for illuminating large areas. Modern LED technology ensures this high brightness is achieved with relatively lower actual power consumption compared to older lighting technologies.
• LED Technology: Utilizes highly efficient LED (Light Emitting Diode) chips (e.g., Bridgelux 5730, 2835, or 3030 LEDs) to provide bright, uniform illumination. LEDs offer long lifespans (typically 50,000+ hours), excellent energy efficiency, and produce a crisp, cool white light (often 6000K-6500K color temperature) ideal for outdoor visibility.
• Solar Powered (Integrated Design): This is an all-in-one or integrated unit, meaning the solar panel, LED lamp, battery, and charge controller are housed within a single, compact fixture. This simplifies installation, as no external wiring to the grid or separate components are needed.
• Aluminium Casing: The use of an aluminium casing is a significant feature. Aluminium provides:
  • Excellent Heat Dissipation: LEDs generate heat, and aluminium is a superb thermal conductor, effectively dissipating heat away from the LED chips, which extends their lifespan and maintains efficiency.
  • Durability and Corrosion Resistance: Aluminium is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, making the light suitable for harsh outdoor weather conditions, including rain, heat, and humidity, ensuring a longer product life.
  • Lightweight yet Strong: It offers a strong, robust housing while remaining relatively lightweight, simplifying installation and reducing stress on mounting poles.
  • Aesthetics: Provides a sleek, modern, and professional appearance.
• Efficient Energy Storage:
  • Solar Panel: Typically uses a high-efficiency polycrystalline or monocrystalline silicon solar panel (e.g., 10V 39W or 16V 48W for a 240W light) to efficiently convert sunlight into electricity.
  • Battery: Stores the solar energy. Modern units commonly use LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) batteries (e.g., 6.4V 30AH or 12.8V 42AH). LiFePO4 batteries are preferred for their long cycle life (thousands of charge/discharge cycles), stability, safety, and performance in a wide range of temperatures, which are critical for street lighting applications.
• Intelligent Control System:
  • Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Operation: A built-in light sensor detects ambient light levels, automatically turning the light on at dusk and off at dawn.
  • Motion Sensor (PIR or Microwave Radar): Many models incorporate a motion sensor that allows the light to dim to a lower brightness when no one is around and then activate to full brightness when motion is detected, saving battery power and extending lighting autonomy.
  • Remote Control: Often includes a remote control for easy adjustment of lighting modes, brightness levels, and timing settings.
• High IP Rating: Typically rated IP65 or IP66, meaning it’s highly protected against dust ingress and water jets, ensuring reliable operation in outdoor environments.
• Installation Height: Recommended installation height usually ranges from 5 to 12 meters, depending on the specific model and desired illumination area.
• Long Autonomy: Designed to provide lighting for multiple nights (e.g., 2-3 rainy days or 20-36 hours) on a single full charge, even during periods of low sunlight.
