Switch to LED continuous-row lighting systems in wind turbines

The Challenge: Safety in Power failure

https://www.switch-gmbh.de/Bisher were frequently fluorescent lamps, but due to the increased RoHS directives will no longer apply in the European Union from 25 August 2023 may be marketed. This development requires an alternative Lighting solution that meets both safety requirements and complies with ecological and legal guidelines.

Solution: The LED lighting system Towerstrip+ from Switch GmbH

Key features of the Towerstrip+ system

• Built-in safety light: In case of in the event of a power failure, the system switches on automatically and without delay the safety light to ensure continuous illumination.
  
• Modular design: The system is based on the tried-and-tested FLEXblue+ LED strip lights and can be used within the system limits can be easily extended. This allows for flexible adaptation to the conditions of the wind turbines.
  
• High-quality components: Both the Continuous-row lighting as well as the lighting control are designed with IP65 protection, which protects them against water jets from all sides. They also comply with CE, REACH and RoHS directives, which underlines their quality and safety.
  
• Easy installation and maintenance: Thanks lockable connectors, the system is easy to install and, if necessary, expand or maintain.
  
  

 Advantages over traditional Lighting systems

• Energy efficiency: LED lighting systems are widely used in the much more energy-efficient compared to fluorescent lamps, which not only reduces the operating costs, but also contributes to environmental protection.
  
• Long service life: LEDs have a significantly longer service life, which reduces maintenance costs and the need for replacement.
  
• Enhanced Security: The Instant Switching to the safety light in the event of a power failure guarantees a continuous lighting and thus increases safety in the tower.
  

Conclusion and call to action

Switching to the LED lighting system Towerstrip+ offers a future-proof solution for wind turbine operators. solution that not only meets the security requirements, but also their energy efficiency and sustainability. In view of the expiry of the approved for fluorescent lamps, the Towerstrip+ system provides a reliable and in accordance with the law.
