The high bay induction lights installed by USA LED Solutions area  huge benefit to our operations at Sandvik. Our operators appreciate the improvement in light quality due to the lower glare and higher light levels compared to our previous metal halide fixtures. Our electricians measured a 58% reduction in energy usage saving more than $8,000 per month, with an investment payback just under 1 year.

Light Level:
Light level measurements were taken in 10 locations before and after the lighting change. Actual measurements taken are show below in FC(foot-candles). Light levels increased an average of 38%. The lighting power density after the induction lamp installation is 0.67 LDP (watts per sq. foot).
