COLOR MIXING
• Color mixing is the process of
combining various wavelengths of
light to produce white or other
colors
• The primary colors of LIGHT are:
8
Red, Green, and Blue
• Color mixing of light is an additive
process.
• Example: light sources

COLOR MIXING
• Color mixing with pigment is a
subtractive process each color of
pigment subtracts wavelengths until
you get to black.
• Examples: object surfaces and

LIGHTING METRICS
 Luminous Flux
 Efficacy
 Luminous Intensity
 Luminance
 Illuminance
36

LUMINOUS FLUX
 Luminous Flux is the light
output of a source
measured in all directions
 Defined as the flow of light,
Φ
 Measured in lumens
 A lamp receives watts and
emits lumens. The measure
of success of doing this is
called efficacy and is
measured in lumens per
watt (lm/W)
37

LUMINOUS INTENSITY
 Generally speaking, a light source emits its luminous
flux (Φ) in different directions and at different
intensities.
 The visible radiant intensity in a particular direction is
called luminous intensity (I).
 The unit of measurement is the candela (cd).
39

ILLUMINANCE (LUMINOUS LEVEL)
40
 As luminous flux travels
outward from a source, it
ultimately impinges on
surfaces, where it is
reflected, transmitted,
and/or absorbed
 Illuminance on a surface, E
is the density of luminous
flux incident on that surface
Measured in lumens per
square meter
 Lumen/m2 is called a lux while
 lumen/ft2 is called footcandle

 It is the quantity of incidental light falling on a unit of surface,
taking into consideration that it is uniformly illuminated.
 Unit of measurement is candelas per square meter
(cd/m2).
LUMINANCE
43

 It is the quantity of incidental light falling on a unit of surface,
taking into consideration that it is uniformly illuminated.
 Unit of measurement is candelas per square meter
(cd/m2).
LUMINANCE
44

COSINE LAW OF INCIDENCE
 If the surface is turned so that the rays hit it at an
angle, the illuminated area will increase in size and
the illuminance will drop accordingly.
 The ratio of the original illuminated area to the new
area is equal to the cosine of the angle through which
the surface has been moved. Therefore the
illuminance will fall by the factor of the cosine of
angle. This is where Lamberts Second Law comes in,
the COSINE LAW of illuminance.
47

 If a surface is illuminated to 100 lux and is twisted
through an angle of 60 degrees then the illuminance
will
fall to half or 50 lux, because the cosine of 60 degrees
is
½.

72

(TUNGSTEN HALOGEN LAMPS)
74
 The tungsten halogen lamp is another type of
incandescent lamp.
 The halogen gas combines with the evaporated
tungsten, re-depositing it on the filament. This process
extends the life of the filament and keeps the bulb wall
from blackening and reducing light output

(LINEAR FLUORESCENT LAMPS)
77

78

HOW IT WORKS
79
 When a suitable lighting voltage is applied
across the electrodes, an electric arc discharge
is initiated and the resulting current ionizes the
vaporized mercury in the tube
 The ionized mercury emits ultra-violet (UV)
radiation that strikes and excites the phosphor
coating on the inside surface of the tube,
causing it to glow or fluoresce and produce
visible light

HOW IT WORKS
 The exact makeup of the phosphors coating the
80
tube determines the color temperature of the
light produced by the lamp
 A ballast is required to regulate the electric
current through the lamp

START UP CIRCUIT
 http://home.howstuffworks.com/
81

HOW IT WORKS
82
 Preheat (“Switch Start)
A switch or starter establishes a complete circuit
through the ballast to preheat the filaments
When the filaments heat up, the starter opens and the
ballast provides a suitable voltage to light the lamp
and limits the current flow to the proper value
Several seconds may be required to complete the
starting operation

HOW IT WORKS
84
 Rapid Start
transformers are introduced to pre-heat the cathodes
they are connected across the lamp pins so the
cathode voltage and resultant watts loss remain part
of the circuit while the lamp is operating

HOW IT WORKS
85
 Trigger Start
a term used for ballasts, which operate pre-heat start
lamps in a rapid start manner
They supply higher filament voltages to heat the
electrodes to start pre-heat lamps and simulate the
rapid start system
 Modified Rapid Start
Ballasts start the lamps in a rapid start mode, but
then, turn off or reduce the filament heat after the
lamps have started

HOW IT WORKS
86
 Instant Start
Ballasts deliver an initial high voltage to light
specifically designed Instant Start Lamps
The arc current heats the filament by bombardment to
provide easy electron emission
No preheating of the filament is required to light the
lamp

FLUORESCENT
 Efficacy good to superior, up to over 100 lumens per watt
 Color good to excellent; choose color temp and CRI 80‐90
 Lamp Life very long with some versions now 42,000 hours
 Temperature Sensitivity significant, varies with product
 Starting and Warm Up instant or rapid, some warm up
 Restarting instant
 Dimming expensive, but dims well with color quality shift
 Cost 10¢ (non dimming) to $1.00 (dimming) per million
lumen hours
87

(COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMPS)
88

 Consists of a lamp (often with a starter
integrated into the base), a lamp holder, and a
ballast
 Based on the principle of the fluorescent tube in
which a phosphor coating transforms some of
the UV energy generated by the discharge into
light
89

 Lamp Types
T4 diameter twin-tube two-pin lamps that have a
starter built into the lamp plug base; operate on an
inexpensive reactor magnetic ballasts (~ 5-13 W) and
are available for both modular and dedicated systems
T4 and T5 diameter quad-tube two-pin lamps with
plug bases and built-in starters (up to 27 W)
Both T4 and T5 diameter twin-tube and quad lamps
now available in four-pin versions that do not contain
a starter in the base and designed for use with
electronic ballasts
90

(HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE LAMPS)
91
 High intensity discharge (HID) lamps
 Metal halide (MH)
 High pressure sodium (HPS) lamps
 high-pressure mercury vapor lamps
 Like fluorescent lamps, HID lamps require ballasts to:
 provide proper starting and operating voltages, and they produce
light through the discharge of an electric arc through a mixture of
gases
 HID lamps utilize a compact “arc tube” in which very high
temperature and pressure exist; this small arc tube closely
resembles a point source of light, making HID lamps and their
luminaires both compact and powerful

HIGH PRESSURE MERCURY VAPOR
LAMP(HPL)
92

LAMP(HPL)
93

LAMP(HPL)
94
 A mercury-vapor lamp is a gas
discharge lamp that uses an
electric arc through vaporized
mercury to produce light.
 The arc discharge is generally
confined to a small fused quartz arc
tube mounted within a larger
borosilicate glass bulb.
 The outer bulb may be clear or
coated with a phosphor; in either
case, the outer bulb provides
thermal insulation, protection from
the ultraviolet radiation the light
produces, and a convenient
mounting for the fused quartz arc
tube.

LAMP(HPL)
95
 Mercury vapor lamps are coated on
the inside of the outer bulb with a
phosphor that converts some
portion of the ultraviolet emissions
into red light.
 This helps to fill in the otherwise
very-deficient red end of the
electromagnetic spectrum.
 These lamps are generally called
"color corrected" lamps.
 Most modern mercury vapor lamps
have this coating.

METAL HALIDE LAMPS
101
 Light-producing element is the same as high-pressure
mercury lamp.
 Halide salts are added as additional additives
inside arc tube to improve color rendition.
 The CRI is improved to 90%.

METAL HALIDE LAMPS
 Ceramic Discharge Metal Halide Lamps (CDM) :
Master Color
The use of a ceramic burner instead of quartz has
102
several advantages:
High efficacy (90 lm/W)
Very good color rendering (80 to 95%)
Stable color temperature over life
Available in low wattages: 20, 35 and 50W

CERAMIC METAL HALIDE
 Efficacy good to superior, up to over 80 lumens per watt
 Color good to excellent; choose color temp and CRI
80‐90+
 Lamp Life Long, 12,000‐25,000 hours
 Temperature Sensitivity None significant
 Starting and Warm Up Slow start and warm up
 Restarting must wait 3‐5 minutes to restrike
 Dimming not recommended, can be used for energy
management purposes
 Cost 50¢ to $1.00 per million lumen hours
103

SODIUM PRESSURE LAMPS
104
 Arc tube compared with MH
lamps has small diameter to
maintain high temperature.
 Light is produced by arc
discharge through sodium
vapor (yellow mono color
appearance).

ADVANTAGES
LED
 LEDs don't have filaments that will burn out, so they last
119
much longer.
 Additionally, their small plastic bulb makes them a lot more
durable. They also fit more easily into modern electronic
circuits.
 But the main advantage is efficiency.
 In conventional incandescent bulbs, the light-production
process involves generating a lot of heat (the filament must
be warmed).
 This is completely wasted energy, unless you're using the
lamp as a heater, because a huge portion of the available
electricity isn't going toward producing visible light.

ADVANTAGES
LED
 LEDs produce more light per watt than incandescent
bulbs; this is useful in battery powered or energy-saving
devices.
 LEDs can emit light of an intended color without the use
of color filters that traditional lighting methods require.
This is more efficient and can lower initial costs.
 The solid package of the LED can be designed to focus
its light. Incandescent and fluorescent sources often
require an external reflector to collect light and direct it in
a usable manner.
120

ADVANTAGES
LED
 When used in applications where dimming is required,
LEDs do not change their color tint as the current
passing through them is lowered, unlike incandescent
lamps, which turn yellow.
 LEDs are ideal for use in applications that are subject to
frequent on-off operation, unlike fluorescent lamps that
burn out more quickly when cycled frequently, or HID
lamps that require a long time before restarting.
121

ADVANTAGES
LED
122
 LEDs, being solid state components, are difficult to
damage with external shock. Fluorescent and
incandescent bulbs are easily broken if dropped on the
ground.
 LEDs can have a relatively long useful life.
 LEDs light up very quickly. A typical red indicator LED
will achieve full brightness in microseconds
 LEDs can be very small and are easily populated onto
printed circuit boards.
 LEDs do not contain mercury, unlike compact
fluorescent lamps.

DISADVANTAGES
LED
 LEDs are currently more expensive, price per lumen, on
an initial capital cost basis, than more conventional
lighting technologies. The additional expense partially
stems from the relatively low lumen output and the drive
circuitry and power supplies needed. However, when
considering the total cost of ownership (including energy
and maintenance costs), LEDs far surpass incandescent
or halogen sources and begin to threaten compact
fluorescent lamps.
123
 LED performance largely depends on the ambient
temperature of the operating environment. Over-driving
the LED in high ambient temperatures may result in
overheating of the LED package, eventually leading to
device failure.

DISADVANTAGES
LED
 LEDs must be supplied with the correct current. This can
124
involve series resistors or current-regulated power
supplies.
 The spectrum of some white LEDs differs significantly
from a black body radiator, such as the sun or an
incandescent light. The spike at 460 nm and dip at
500 nm can cause the color of objects to be perceived
differently under LED illumination than sunlight or
incandescent sources.

BALLASTS
126
 Lamp Ballasts:
A lamp ballast is part of the control gear in a
fluorescent fixture which is inserted between the
supply and one or more discharge lamps which, by
means of inductance, capacitance, or a combination
of both to:
 provide correct starting voltage
 match the line voltage to the operating voltage of the lamp
 limit the lamp current to prevent immediate destruction (because
once the arc is struck the lamp impedance decreases

BALLASTS
127
 Types of FL Lamp Ballasts
Electromagnetic Ballast
High Frequency Electronic Ballasts

HIGH FREQUENCY ELECTRONIC BALLASTS
133
 High Frequency Electronic Ballasts
Also called “solid-state ballasts” which operate at 20
kHz using electronic switching power supply circuits
Increase lamp-ballast efficacy, leading to increased
energy efficiency of the fixture and lower operating
costs
They operate lamps using electronic switching power
supply circuits; take incoming 60 Hz power (230 V)
and convert it to high frequency AC (usually 20 to 40
kHz)

HIGH FREQUENCY ELECTRONIC BALLASTS
134
 High Frequency Electronic Ballasts
End losses are reduced resulting to overall lamp-ballast
system efficacy increase of 15% to 20%
More expensive than other ballasts

ELECTRONIC BALLASTS VS MAGNETIC
BALLASTS
135
 Electronic Ballasts vs Magnetic Ballasts
Electronic ballasts are readily available that operate 3
or 4 lamps, allowing the use of a single ballast,
reducing both installation and field wiring labor costs
Reduced weight
Quieter operation
Reduced lamp flicker
