making it possible to obtain UL Listed status for new lamps and luminaires built with Bridgelux’s Arrays without requiring a full in-system LED component evaluation.
“Underwriters Laboratories is very pleased that Bridgelux chose to work with us for the certification of their LED Arrays,” said Doug Lockard, UL Lighting Business Manager. “Solid- state light sources are a critical new technology that is rapidly transforming the lighting industry. UL’s Component Certification program helps to reduce the cost of end-product certification and speed the time to market for lamp and luminaire manufacturers by eliminating redundant testing of commercially available LED light sources. This program allows lighting manufacturers to identify products that are pre-approved to comply with safety requirements in finished lighting systems, accelerating the UL Listing process.”
Bridgelux offers a diverse range of solid- state light sources, delivering 240 to 4500 “hot” lumens across a broad range of color temperatures. This expansive portfolio of UL-recognized arrays provides Bridgelux customers with wide-ranging options as they develop high quality replacement lamps and luminaires for a market rapidly transitioning to energy efficient lighting.
“A significant number of LED lamp and luminaire manufacturers are seeking UL Listing in order to successfully sell their products into the U.S. market,” said Jason Posselt, Bridgelux vice president of marketing. “By using Bridgelux Arrays, our customers can confidently design and manufacture with independent direction and support from UL and dramatically shorten the approval cycle.”
