Harvard Engineering Has Actively Taken Actions to Tap Into The LED Lighting Market

Wakefield-based LED driver module supplier Harvard Engineering has actively taken actions to tap into the LED lighting market. As Michael McDonnell, sales and marketing director at Harvard , said “It’s an exciting time to be involved in the lighting industry and we’re investing heavily to create in the research and development of our CoolLED drivers.” Recently, the company announced CoolLED Kompact and CoolLED 40W drivers are aimed at the professional lighting sector for powering high-brightness LEDs from a mains supply. The fully-isolated SELV output Kompact Driver boasts all the features of Harvard’s standard CoolLED drivers with the added benefit of being in a compact footprint, which makes it ideal for installing in track mounted spotlights, while the CoolLED 40W driver comes with a 5V auxiliary fan output as standard. This has fully-isolated SELV output delivering up to 40W of power and is compatible with all major LED modules including Xicato 2000 Lumen XSM and Osram PrevaLED, making it a suitable LED retrofit design for track mounted spotlights. Earlier this year, Harvard Engineering won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise, within the Innovation Category. It won the award for its wireless street light management system, LeafNut, which is helping local councils around the UK cut energy usage and reduce carbon emissions. The system allows local authorities to manage their street lights without having to controversially ‘switch off’. The system is used by councils trying to reduce their carbon footprint whilst ensuring there is adequate lighting on roads and public areas. Source: www.ledinside.com
