How to ensure that the lenses work at the right temperature

As one of the most important parts of LED lights, LED lenses play a more and more important role in the LED lighting industry, which widely applicated in advertising lighting, office lighting, and home lighting. Relying on the reflecting lenses, LED curtain lattice strip lights have a wide beam angle up to 175 degrees, which fit well with thin light boxes, billboards, stretch ceilings and other backlighting. At present, most of the LED lenses in the market are made of PMMA or PC. Due to the temperature resistance of the materials is not high, so excessive heat will directly affect the performance of LED lenses. In this article, we will introduce how to reduce the impact of heat on the LED lens.

In the short-term use of LED lenses in the environment of overheating, color drift and light droop of LED light strips will have resulted. If working at such an environment for a long period of time, the light decay is accelerated and the life is shortened. In order to avoid the effects of overheating on the LED light fixtures, LED strip lights manufacturers often use passive and active cooling methods to dissipate heat.

Passive heat dissipation means that the heat is dissipated by the LED fixture itself. The most common passive heat sink for LED lattice curtain strips is the aluminum rigid PCB that has the excellent thermal conductivity, cooling the LED light source and LED lenses efficiently. Because the passive cooling system does not consume energy, it is the most energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. Our LED curtain light strips are adapt this type of cooling method i.e. high heat-conductive aluminum PCB to control the temperature in a really low range.

Active cooling is generally used on high-power LED lights that the lights themselves have no capacity to dissipate such a lot heat. The common active energy-consuming cooling devices are pumps and fans.
