How to solve the waterproof problem of LED street lights?

LED street lights are exposed all year round, and are exposed to wind, rain, or even rain and snow, especially in places where heavy rains continue. Waterproofing is a very important issue for the use of LED street lights. To solve the waterproof problem of LED street lights, you can start from the following aspects:

1. The waterproof problem of the lamp

How should the lamp holder be waterproof? Many street lamp manufacturers take this into consideration when they produce LED street lamp caps. Most street lamp caps are waterproof. Not only that, many led outdoor street lights have protection grades of IP65 or IP66, which can completely prevent dust from intruding, and will not seep in rainstorms, and are not afraid of bad weather. However, it cannot be generalized. The waterproof performance of LED street lights also depends on the manufacturing capacity and level of street lamp manufacturers. Large manufacturers can be more trustworthy, but small workshops may not be able to guarantee the quality. It is recommended to confirm the test report of the product before purchasing.

2. Waterproof problems in the installation of LED street lights

After ensuring the quality of the lamp holder, you need to pay attention to the technical problems of the lamp holder installation and construction. Most of the led street light controllers are installed in the lampshade and battery box, and generally will not enter water, but in actual engineering cases, some are due to improper installation or The circuit board of the controller is not treated with three-proof paint, which will cause a short circuit due to rain water flowing into the led street light controller along the external wiring of the controller terminal.

Therefore, during construction, attention should be paid to bending the internal connecting wires of the controller terminals into a "U" shape and fixing them, and the connecting wires exposed to the outside are also fixed to a "U" shape, so that rainwater cannot enter and cause the controller to short circuit. You can also apply waterproof glue on the inner and outer line interfaces to waterproof.

3. Rust prevention of LED street light poles

The problem of rust prevention of street lamp poles is also very important. The main methods are hot-dip galvanizing, cold galvanizing, and plastic spraying. Hot-dip galvanizing is recommended. This can prevent serious corrosion of the exterior of the light pole, and can make the street light use for a longer time.

The waterproofing of LED street lights directly affects the service life of street lights. In order to avoid additional maintenance work and high maintenance costs in the later period, we must pay special attention to the waterproof problem of the lamps. The first thing to do is to find a manufacturer with a good reputation and good after-sales service to eliminate unnecessary problems and troubles in the product. CHZ Lighting focuses on LED outdoor lighting and high-power indoor lighting.
