Larson Electronics is pleased to announce their new low voltage 4 foot LED bulbs. When upgrading existing T8 fluorescent fixtures to LEDs, or direct replacement, the new Magnalight LEDT48-24W-T8-LVAC will outperform a standard fluorescent in either AC or DC configurations.
Ideal for the manufacturing and automation industry and factories, never before has a low voltage AC bulb been available for their specific needs until now. The 24 watt T-series LED Bulb works with any T8 fluorescent light fixtures and can be configured for any T-series fluorescent bulb fixture and requires no ballast for operation. The polycarbonate lens diffuses the light and makes this bulb ideal for food safe environments since there is no glass. The aluminum housing serves as a heat sink and provides rigidity and strength for this LED bulb.
The Magnalight 28 Watt LED tube produces more light than a T8 fluorescent and saves on electric costs and maintenance costs while resisting shock and temperature extremes. These LED light tubes can also be plugged directly into fluorescent light fixtures with magnetic ballasts, which make them an ideal retrofit for older T12 fluorescent lights with magnetic ballasts.
In fluorescent light fixtures with electronic ballasts, the operator needs to bypass the ballast and wire the power directly to one or both ends of the LED tube (black wire to one end and white wire to the other). Thus, this is an ideal upgrade for 4 foot fixtures with failed ballasts. These LED bulbs are designed to operate on low voltage AC and can directly run off 12-24VAC.
“We realized that a lot of industries operate their equipment and machinery in AC low voltage,” Rob Bresnahan, with Magnalight.com said. “This gives both commercial and industrial settings an opportunity to upgrade to LED lighting without any conversions or transformers. This made your lighting needs much simpler.”
