Tri-proof light is a specialized commercial or industrial light. Many design companies and contractors buyers, importers, especially new buyers or businessmen who have just ventured into the light industry not long ago, may not know much about tri-proof lights, so I hereby introduce the basic information to help those who need to understand the function of tri-proof lights, application places and so on!
What is a tri-proof LED light?
A triproof light is a special light made of special protective materials, waterproof, dustproof, and anti-corrosion. Triproof means “waterproof”, “dustproof”, or “anti-corrosion”. This understanding is simple, right?
Special anti-oxidation and anti-corrosion material and a Silica Gel sealing ring are used to realize the protection requirements of lights. According to the actual working environment of the Tri-proof light, the surface of the lamp protection box is treated with nano-spraying plastic damp-proof and anticorrosive treatment, which prevents the entry of dust and moisture.
Where to use the tri-proof light?
Wet places: viaduct, overpass, tunnel, car wash stations, subway, airport.
Chemical corrosion sites: steel plants, petrochemical plants, food processing plants, farms, toilets, and docks.
Other: library, parking lot, basement, warehouse, workshop, supermarket, school corridor, supermarket.
What is an IP65 tri-proof LED light?
IP (Ingress Protection) rating system was drawn up by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), which classifies electrical appliances according to their dustproof and moisture-proof characteristics.
Tri-proof LED lights usually are IP65, IP66, IP67, IP68, and IP69K.
The IP protection level is composed of two numbers.
The first number represents the level of dustproof of electrical appliances and the level of protection against invasion of foreign objects (in this case, objects including tools, people’s fingers, and so on are not allowed to touch the live parts of electrical appliances to avoid electric shock)
The second number indicates the electrical moisture, and waterproof immersion sealed degree, the larger the number, the higher the protection level of the light.
Protection level to IP followed by two Numbers to express, the number used to clarify the level of protection.
For example: IP65.
6 is the first number, which means the level of dustproof of electrical appliances and the level of protection against invasion of foreign objects.
5 is the second number, indicating the electrical moisture, waterproof immersion sealed degree.
The first number indicates
0：No Protection
1: Protection Against Large Solids
2: Protection Against Medium Solids
3: Protection Against Small Solids
4: Protection against solids larger than 1 mm
5: Protection Against Harmful Dust Accumulation
6: complete protection against dust entry
The second number indicates:
0: No Protection
1: Droplet to shell. It will not affect normal work
2: Droplets drop into the shell when the Shell is tilted to 15 degrees. It will not affect normal work
3: Water or rain from 60 degree angle drops into the shell. It will not affect normal work
4: Liquid poured into the shell from any direction, will not affect normal work
5: Flush with water. It will not affect normal work
6: Environment suitable for use in the cabin
7: Resistance to immersion for a short time (1m)
8: Immersion for a long time under certain pressure
IP69K protects against high temperature and high-pressure water vapor shock, such as high-pressure water guns in car wash.
What is the “Anti-corrosion” of Tri-proof light?
In the production environment of Petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, light industry, and animal feed business, there are often corrosive gases or liquids of acid, Alkali, and salt, accompanied by unfavorable factors such as humidity and high temperature, The lights special are required to be anti-corrosion. It should not only meet the anti-corrosion standard of General anti-corrosion low-voltage electrical appliances and take corresponding anti-corrosion measures but also reach higher requirements. In the structure, it needs to take adequate and reasonable sealing measures and choose appropriate corrosion-resistant and sealing materials.
For Example, Ammonia is produced from the dung of farm animals, Sanitary cleaning liquids in food processing plants contain corrosive elements such as sodium hydroxide, so the lights in such places should be against such chemical corrosion. Manufacturers usually use materials like Acrylic or other special plastic to reach the “anti-corrosion ” requirements.
Where to buy the best high-quality Tri-proof light?
If you are looking for the best good quality tri-proof LED light, ShineLong company located in Shenzhen China may be a good choice for you.
Focus on triproof LED lighting manufacture for 13 years, Supplying products for many brand lighting companies and big projects, ShineLong has earned a good reputation in the LED market.
Finally, summarize the considerations for purchasing tri-proof lights：
LED tri-proof lights are high-illumination lights that are waterproof, dustproof, and corrosion-proof. They’re also shock-resistant and don’t emit any harmful or combustible gasses.
You can use these light fixtures in different industrial and commercial applications because they provide high illumination with low power consumption. They’re also resistant to heat and water, so they can be used in several situations where the use of other light fixtures can be hazardous.
