Technical Specs & Certifications
When specifying LEDs for room lighting applications, several critical technical parameters must be considered to ensure optimal performance, energy efficiency, and visual comfort. At Beauty (STC) Manufacturing Co., Ltd., our LED lighting solutions are engineered to meet and exceed industry standards, combining high performance with long-term reliability.
One of the primary performance metrics is luminous efficacy, measured in lumens per watt (lm/W). Our LED luminaires for indoor room applications typically deliver between 110 and 140 lumens per watt, depending on the optical configuration and thermal management design. This high efficacy ensures significant energy savings over conventional lighting while maintaining excellent light output. Advanced driver technology and high-efficiency LED chips contribute to this performance, allowing our fixtures to provide bright, uniform illumination with minimal power consumption.
Color Rendering Index (CRI) is another essential factor, particularly in environments where accurate color perception is vital—such as retail spaces, studios, healthcare facilities, and high-end residential interiors. All Beauty STC LED products designed for indoor room lighting feature a CRI greater than 90, with many options offering CRI values of 95 or higher. This ensures that colors appear natural and vibrant under the light, enhancing visual clarity and occupant comfort. We achieve this through the use of high-quality phosphor-coated LEDs and rigorous binning processes during manufacturing.
Regarding environmental protection, Ingress Protection (IP) ratings are crucial for determining a fixture’s resistance to dust and moisture. For standard indoor room applications, our LED fixtures typically carry an IP20 rating, which provides protection against solid objects larger than 12mm and no protection against water—suitable for dry, controlled indoor environments. However, for areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, or utility rooms where moisture may be present, we offer fixtures with higher IP ratings, including IP44 and IP54, which provide protection against splashing water and dust ingress. These higher-rated luminaires are ideal for damp locations while maintaining aesthetic appeal and performance.
Beauty STC prides itself on superior build quality, rigorous quality control, and compliance with international standards such as IEC, EN, and UL. Our LED products undergo extensive thermal, electrical, and photometric testing to ensure longevity, with typical L70 lifespans exceeding 50,000 hours. The use of premium drivers, robust heat sinks, and high-transmission optical materials further enhances reliability and performance consistency across diverse operating conditions.
In summary, Beauty STC’s LED lighting solutions for rooms deliver high lumens per watt, excellent color rendering with CRI >90, and appropriate IP ratings tailored to the application environment. These features, combined with our commitment to engineering excellence and quality manufacturing, make our products a trusted choice for professional and residential lighting projects worldwide.
