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
