LED Underwater Lights installation

LED underwater lights utilize LED technology for illumination beneath water. Compared to traditional underwater lights LED underwater lights are more energy-efficient, offer a variety of lighting options, and have a decorative quality, making them widely used in various landscape lighting systems. However, as a manufacturer of LED lights, there are some important issues to pay attention to during the installation of LED underwater lights.


1.LED underwater lights should be powered by a DC constant current source. Under the control of a constant current source, the forward voltage drop of LED lights, such as LED wall washers LED floodlights, LED underwater lights, LED ground lights, decreases with the increasing temperature of the LED chip, which does not greatly affect the LED underwater lights. However, if driven by constant voltage, the current through the LED underwater light chip will increase with temperature. In severe cases, it may even burn out the LED underwater lights. Therefore, LED underwater lights should be supplied with power from a DC constant current source.


2. Anti-static measures should be taken. During the processing, manufacturing, and installation of LED underwater lights, certain anti-static measures should be implemented, such as grounding work tables, and wearing anti-static clothing, wrist straps, and anti-static gloves by workers. If possible, anti-static ion fans can be installed, and the humidity should be kept around 65% during installation to avoid static electricity generated by too dry air. Additionally, LED underwater lights of different quality grades have varying levels of anti-static ability, with higher-quality grades having stronger anti-static properties.


3. Pay attention to the sealing of LED products. All outdoor LED lights, especially LED underwater lights, face moisture-proofing and sealing challenges. Poor handling of sealing issues can directly affect the lifespan of LED underwater light products.
