QL Induction Lighting Systems
55, 85 and 165 Watt Systems offering the lowest maintenance levels as
lighting solutions for difficult access areas due to a reliable induction platform
Why choose QL Induction Lighting?
• 80+ CRI for a crisp white light
QL Induction Lighting was first introduced and
marketed in 1992 to offer state of the art technology.
For QL Induction Lighting the most important
features lie with the extraordinary luminaire life
time of 100,000 hours combined with high lumen
yield and an unique product reliability. This mix
leads to a low maintenance lighting solution that
will outperform any of the available LED lighting
systems today.
• High reliability, instant re-strike
• Hot and cold temperature operation
• Constant “light” over temperature
• 3,000K, 4,000K & 5,000K color of choice
• Excellent lumen maintenance
• Stepless dimming, from 100% down to 50% of
the lamp power
QL Induction Lighting is a proven and smart
technology that does not make use of any
electrodes. This specific functional design reduces
the wear and tear of the luminaire hardware. It
creates a significant improvement of the product
life time and at the same time it offers a superior
reliability when compared to other lighting
systems. Such a feature makes QL Induction
Lighting Systems stand out in comparison to
any other lighting systems. Due to a virtually
maintenance free performance it is the ideal and
dependable solution for hazardous and hard-toreach applications.
The performance of QL Induction Lighting
is unprecedented and there are many more
important benefits to highlight:
In addition, QL Induction Lighting is a safe and
professional choice that has been made for many
applications worldwide. The range of different
light colors, lamp wattages and stepless dimming
makes it a leading lighting solution. That is why you
should choose the innovative QL Induction Lighting
System.
QL Induction Lighting Systems
55, 85 and 165 Watt Systems offering superior sustainable lighting
through dimming functionality combined with innovative QL technology
QL Lighting is a smart investment
that will reduce costs
The QL Induction Lighting System qualifies for
special tasks in hazardous places and locations
that require professional lighting quality and low
maintenance such as high-traffic halls, bridges,
tunnels, street lighting and cold storage buildings.
QL installations have proven that the Cost-ofOwnership can be significantly reduced while
increasing the reliability and quality of lighting.
Bryant calculates that the QL
System reduces its lifetime total
cost of ownership by $ 1,977
per lamp in the atrium and by
$ 1,927 per lamp in the quad*
*
B ryant’s Total Cost Of Ownership (TCOO ®) calculation includes purchase price, energy savings at 10¢/KWH
and maintenance costs of an is a 85-watt QL lamp versus a
175-watt metal halide lamp burning 24/7 in the atrium; and
the 165-watt QL lamp versus the 250-watt metal halide
burning dusk until dawn on the quad. The calculation excludes installation costs, eliminating the additional installation
savings gained from not having to set up an auxiliary emergency re-strike system when using QL Induction Lighting.
COST OF OWNERSHIP
• QL luminaires - without mirrors or complicated optical systems
• Reduce or eliminate lighting maintenance costs long term
• No auxiliary lighting needed to compensate for hot-restrike
• Energy efficiency and reduced carbon emissions
• Less lamp waste and chemicals to be discarded
QL Induction Lighting offers better
white light
Light is crucial for us to see buildings, products,
people and to identify colors. Better light means
that there are more colors of the daylight
spectrum included in the lighting emitted and this is
measured in the Color Rendering Index (CRI). The
rating of QL Induction Lighting in this CRI index has
a value of 80+, which gives a better visibility than
high pressure sodium (HPS) and Quartz Metal
Halide (QMH) lamps.
Lumen maintenance stands out when compared
to metal halide systems. The average lumen
maintenance of a QL Induction lamp after 60,000
lamp hours remains at no less than 75% of the
initial lumen output! This fact proves that QL
Lighting is a long term solution that makes it a
motivating investment for many decision makers.
QL Induction Lighting Systems
55, 85 and 165 Watt Systems offering multi­‐purpose lighting for applications
where atmosphere, exposure and perceived brightness are important
The dimming capability of our 55, 85 and 165W
QL Induction lamps has opened the door to even
higher energy savings and more flexibility. Light is
available where and when it is needed.
Above all the Color Consistency (CCT) of the QL
lamps is also far better than QMH lamps. The color
stability of the QL Induction Lighting System clearly
shows preferable values when compared to QMH
lamps.
The environmental profile of QL Induction Lighting
is positive. With a low mercury content of the QL
lamp combined with high energy efficiency and a
long lamp life the QL technology ensures that the
environmental impact remains limited to the lowest
levels. A good lamp recycling program is important
for the disposal of QL lamps and all other lamp
types to manage the reuse of glass, metal, plastics,
chemicals and other materials.
Before retrofit – 100W HPS lamp
QL Induction Lighting makes
a difference
QL Induction Lighting is used for many retrofits
and new installations. QL Induction Lighting has a
homogeneous light distribution and can be used in
a variety of luminaire designs. The QL technology
is very reliable and popular for its cost effective
lighting. In high traffic area’s such as airports, city
centers, museums and retail stores the quality
of lighting will contribute to an efficient flow of
travelers, visitors and clients.
QL installations also show that the improvement
of lighting quality can be combined with significant
energy reductions and better visibility. This lighting
upgrade leads indirectly to a safer streetlife for
pedestrians, cyclists and motor vehicles. Locations
that are prone to traffic accidents and street crimes
can experience positive effects from improved
lighting levels.
After QL installation – 55W QL lamp
QL Induction Lighting Systems
55, 85 and 165 Watt Systems offering crisp white lighting
with a variety of color choices and high lumen output
A broad variety of applications,
one clear choice of lighting
Research shows that bright white light is the
best choice for outdoor lighting. This applies to
residential lighting and city beautification. First of all,
with white light there is a better visibility and color
recognition. That is exactly what artificial lighting is
supposed to deliver. And secondly, the perception
of the eye tells us that QL Lighting offers a higher
perceived brightness level over HPS lamps. This is
logical as the yellow HPS light does not reflect all
the colors and depths.
QL Lighting has an ignition time of < 0.5 seconds
and its hot-restrike time is similar. The QL lamp
has a flicker-free ignition in both cold and hot
conditions. The minimum temperature for ignition
is tested at -13°F / -25°C. This QL Induction Lighting
technology has qualified for electromagnetic
compatibility, EMC. This specific EMC certification
is important when using QL Lighting in areas
where interference with other electromagnetic
technology is unacceptable.
The QL solution is easy to integrate in most
luminaire systems. And with 3,000K, 4,000K and
5,000K color options the QL Induction Lighting will
blend in perfectly in different scenes to fulfill its
tasks; deliver functional and reliable lighting, create
a warm atmosphere or make design elements and
colors stand out.
QL Induction Lighting testing
