Which Cold Room Light to Choose?

Content Category

Many people have such questions: What kind of lights are used in cold room? Will ordinary lights be frozen?

People usually use cold room to store food or other materials to prevent spoilage. The temperature inside the cold room is relatively low and can be frozen, and the humidity inside is relatively high.

The inside temperature of the cold room is too low compared to the normal temperature. If use ordinary lighting lamps, incandescent lamps, their lifespan will be greatly shortened in the severe cold environment. Meanwhile, the light of ordinary lamps appears a little soft in the cold room and is not bright enough.

What is Cold Room Light?

Cold room light is one kind of light named by the purpose, which is used in places such as freezing and refrigeration where the ambient is low temperature, high humidity, and should pay more attention to electrical safety and environmental protection.

Cold room light has two main components: protective cover and light source. The protective cover is made of PP (Polypropylene), PC (Polycarbonate), cast aluminum, glass, ABS and other materials; the light source normally is LED.

Why Need Cold Room Light?

Ordinary lighting has many defects when used in cold room, such as: high power consumption, low illumination, short life, poor sealing, which will lead to air leakage and water accumulation finally freezing in the light. Once a large amount of accumulated water freezes, it will cause short circuit, and safety hazards. In addition, ordinary lighting is prone to cracking and damage when used in low temperature environments.

LED cold room light solved these problems. Cold room light can be used for a long time in an environment below -50℃, and have a long life. They are “moisture-proof”, “dust-proof”, “explosion-proof” and “low-temperature resistant”. They also have uniform illumination and good luminous efficiency at low temperatures.

Voltage: 220V~50/60Hz

Power: 20W/24W/30/35W
