What issues will we need to notice before choosing correct led work lamps for agricultural equipments

Illumination is very important for agricultureal equipments such as tractors, combine, espeically working at night or poor weather.

The original tractors lights may not be enough for actual requirements, so most of the time, farmers will source additional led work lamps and install them on the top or the side to improve illumination.

Before chooing correct led work lamps, we need to consider the following issues .

Actual Light Output and Beam Pattern:
Do not just watch the nominal wattage. You need to test and choose higher lumens of led work lamps that can provide maximum brightness in low-light field. Basically, it is better to adopt the led work lamps whose total lumen is up to 1800lm at least.

Choose a beam pattern that is the best suitable for your working requirement. Flood lights pattern offer a wide illumination to cover large area field, while spot lights provide a focused beam for one spot or long-distance visibility. Sometimes, you can choose led light bars with combo beams for versatility.

Durability and Environmental Resistance:
Agricultural equipments such as offroad tractors endures constant and strong vibration most of the time. Choose LED work lamps with anti-vibration design for off-road use with a vibration-resistant build.

Since the agricultural equipments work in wet or rainy days, IP67 ingress protection rating is a must. Sometimes, if some special-purpose agricultural equipments need to be washed by high pressure water occassionly, IP68 waterproofness grade will be required.

Power Consumption and Efficiency:

LED work lamps are known for their energy-saving efficiency, but you still need to find the led work lamps with higher Luminous efficiency. These type of led work lamps can achieve better brightness at the same temperature on the exterior aluminum housings.

For agricultural equipments powered by disel engine, the working voltage 12V or 24V DC will be enough for led work lamps. However, more and more electric agricultural eqipments are seen on the farms, 
We have to provide wider DC voltage option such as 12V up to 80V DC to avoid over voltage damage by batteries.

Color Temperature: Consider the desired color temperature for single white color, for example cool white for task lighting, warm white for less eye strain. If amber white or other multi color led strobe warning lights are used, you need to choose the approximate color temperature combination to reduce dazzling.

Easy and conveninent Installation: Look for lamps with bottom mounting bracket for quick and easy installation on your equipment. Pay attention to the installation angle or mounting size that the choose led work lamps can suit well.

Warranty for worry-free after-sales service: It is suggested to source the led work lamps with enough spare parts for repairs, and longer warranty validity such as two years will be better for after-service later on.

Following the above guidelines and factors, it will be much helpful for you to select the best cost-effective led work lamps that provide optimal lighting for agricultural working environment, so as to ensure safety,productivity, long-lasting performance in demanding agriculural fields.
