FARMINGDALE,
N.J. - Dialight (LSE: DIA.L), an innovative global leader in LED
lighting technology, today announced the addition of the new
LED Low Beam 4”x6” Headlamp to its growing line of SAE/DOT approved LED
lighting products for mass transit busses and commercial vehicles. Operating at
less than 14 watts, the Dialight Low Beam Headlamp uses more than 70% less
energy than conventional halogen headlamps and one-third the energy of the
leading LED competitor in its class. This exceptional energy efficiency helps
to reduce stress on the vehicles’ electrical system and potentially improve
fuel economy.
Leveraging Dialight’s
proprietary thermal design, the Dialight Low Beam Headlamp requires no cooling
fans or other moving parts to manage heat, eliminating the failure points
commonly found in other LED products. The combination of exceptional energy
efficiency and innovative thermal management makes the long-life Dialight LED
4”x6” Low Beam the most reliable product of its kind for this application.
Where typical
conventional headlamps require replacement about once every nine months, the
Dialight unit offers a life expectancy of more than 10 full years, seven of
those backed by Dialight’s full-replacement peace of mind warranty. This saves
mass transit bus operators significant maintenance time and cost over the life
of the product.
“This product is the
latest edition in our family of highly efficient forward lighting that
incorporates Dialight’s exclusive reflector-based optics design to enhance visibility
in adverse weather conditions and reduce glare for oncoming traffic,” said Roy
Burton, Dialight’s Group Chief Executive. “Based on the data we’ve seen, this
new 4”x6” headlamp is far superior to anything else on the market with regard
to energy efficiency and maintenance savings.”
Made in the USA at
Dialight’s Roxboro, NC facility, the new 4”x6” headlamp meets the Buy America
requirements and is SAE/DOT FMVSS108 compliant. Its rugged aluminum alloy die
cast housing and hard-coated polycarbonate lens make the weather-proof unit
impact resistant to hold up to the wear and tear of transit use. The
plug-and-play unit is a perfect match in fit and function to existing
incandescent headlamps and features universal 12V and 24V dual-voltage
operation.
Dialight representatives
will officially unveil the new product with a display unit at the 2011 Bus & Paratransit Conference,
sponsored by the American Public Transportation Association, May 22-25 at the
Marriott Memphis Downtown in Memphis, Tenn.
