LED Testing and Certification

Evaluating the building blocks of your LED Technology: LEDs, LED Packages, and LED Arrays with worldwide LED Testing Solutions
Leveraging LED sources with demonstrated compliance to applicable lumen maintenance and/or color maintenance performance requirements enables a more efficient LED testing and certification process for lamps and luminaires.
LEDs tested by a third party to applicable standards, such as LM-80 with 6,000 minimum testing hours required, will minimize delays in meeting energy efficiency requirements such as Energy-related Products (ErP) Directive, ENERGY STAR®, or DesignLights Consortium™ (DLC).
While LED lamp and luminaire development is typically measured in months, utilizing suitably-rated components can expedite energy efficiency program testing or certification to a matter of weeks.
Typical performance tests for these products include:
- IES standards including LM-79, LM-80, LM-82, and LM-84
- IES standards including TM 30
- IEC standards including IEC 62612
- CIE S 025
- Customized Manufacturer-Specific Test Methods
