Tridonic's LED tube lights. (Tridonic/LEDinside)

LED light sources open up new possibilities in lighting design. Not only are they highly durable, they are extremely energy efficient.  But switching to LED technology is an option not only when planning a new lighting system. With the new accessory set for TALEXXmodules LLE from Tridonic, existing linear luminaires equipped with T5 or T8 fluorescent lamps can be quickly and easily upgraded to state-of-the-art LED technology.

To facilitate the switch, Tridonic offers a complete set for upgrading existing luminaires to LED technology. In no time at all, T5 and T8 light sources can be swapped out for TALEXXmodules LLE 16 and 24. Available accessories include covers with different transmission grades, end caps and fixing clips. The LED light sources can be fixed in place without the need for screws or any tools. The end caps offer complete protection against inadvertent contact with the LLE module. Different covers provide high levels of translucence and optimum distribution of light. The entire concept has been well thought out. For the first time, linear luminaires can be quickly and easily upgraded to LED technology.

 If we compare two 36 W T8 light sources with one TALEXXmodule LLE, the initially higher procurement costs will be offset in less than two years thanks to the much lower operating costs (see Figs. 1 and 2). This calculation is based on an operating time of ten hours a day for 250 days a year. Whereas fluorescent lamps have to be replaced on average every three years, LLE modules will operate for 50,000 hours. There are also total savings of around 65 kg of CO2 per light source.
