Mount Airy,MD–Emergence Technology Consultants,LLC,today announces its latest technological advancement in Light-Emitting Diode(LED)solutions designed to retrofit all traditional fluorescent fixtures currently deploying energy inefficient fluorescent light bulbs in hospitals,schools and office buildings.
Emergence set out to develop a simple solution that addresses two critical dimensions of general illumination performance that are critical to sustainability–illuminating efficacy and energy efficiency without the full-fixture replacement cost.Emergence's Healthy-Lite?LED Panel Retrofit Kit achieves illumination intensity,consistency and performance without any sacrifices to visual comfort and thermal efficiency.Emergence's solution does not require replacement of the luminary itself–only the removal of the tubes and ballast of the fluorescent light fixture.Emergence's Healthy-Lite?LED Panel Retrofit Kit installs quickly in any existing fixture in less than 10 minutes and aggressively reduces electricity costs use by an astonishing 65-75%while providing more lumens at the work plane and better quality light.
Healthy-Lite?LED Panel Retrofit Kits are populated with Emergence's proprietary LEDs which deliver near-full spectrum light compared to traditional fluorescents which deliver only a small part of the light spectrum.It has been well documented that exposure to light closer to daylight helps keep individuals who are indoors all day remain on their circadian rhythm,helping them stay awake,work or rest better with no eye fatigue,headaches or other problems long associated with fluorescent tubes.Healthy-Lite?LEDs are currently available in Emergence's linear T8 replacement lamps.
Emergence specializes in the adaptation of emerging and disruptive LED technology solutions and is the largest single provider of linear LED replacement lamps for the U.S.hospital industry with over 43,000 custom manufactured linear LED replacement lamps in service–with zero failures.In recognition for its efforts the University of Maryland,School of Nursing presented one of Baltimore's most prestigious hospital corporations the yearly award as"the most innovative energy solution for Maryland hospitals"at their 2010 Environmental Excellence in Health Care Conference for the implementation of Emergence's linear LED replacement lamps.
Emergence's founder,Howard G.Weinberg states:"The technology of Light Emitting Diode(LED)panels as a replacement for traditional fluorescent fixtures represents a rare convergence of technology and market need.LED technology is very mature and we have developed a simple retrofit kit,coupled with rebates from utility company energy programs that can be financially compelling as LED technologies rapidly become critical to the economic stability of all major hospitals,educational institutions and commercial buildings in the near future."
