Traditional fluorescent lamps use the principle of low-pressure mercury vapor to emit ultraviolet rays after being energized, so that the phosphors emit visible light. Fluorescent lamps are favored by many consumers because of their aesthetics and bringing many conveniences to people's lives.
What are the characteristics of fluorescent lamps
1. Good energy saving
High luminous efficiency The luminous efficiency of general fluorescent lamps is 40-50lm/w, while the luminous efficiency of incandescent bulbs is 8-16lm/w. The luminous efficiency of visible fluorescent lamps is 3-5 times higher than that of incandescent bulbs. Means it saves electricity than using light bulbs.
2. Longer life
Long service life The service life of fluorescent lamps is 2000-9500h, while the service life of incandescent bulbs is only 1000h. The lifespan of visible fluorescent lamps is 2-9 times longer than that of incandescent lamps. In this way, the user has a long cycle to replace the lamp tube, which can reduce many troubles.
3. Soft light
The light is soft and the light color is pleasant. The fluorescent lamp emits visible light by the ultraviolet light generated by the gas discharge to excite the fluorescent powder. It is softer than the incandescent lamp which relies on thermal radiation. Fluorescent lamps with different light colors such as white, red, green, and purple.
