Types of Amber Light Fixtures
If you're considering using amber light fixtures, there are several types to choose from. One popular option is narrow-band amber LED lighting, which is often referred to as "turtle-safe" lighting due to its reduced impact on wildlife, particularly turtles and nocturnal birds and insects.
Narrow-band amber LED lighting is available in various optical distributions, making it suitable for different applications. It's also available for use with a house side shield (HSS) option.
In terms of specific features, narrow-band amber LED lighting typically includes true narrow-band, monochromatic amber in 590nm, +/- nm, which is not phosphor-converted (PC) or red-orange LED. This is a key factor in its reduced impact on wildlife.
You can find narrow-band amber LED lighting in various fixtures, including outdoor luminaires. These fixtures often come with optimized drive current for maximum efficiency, output, and life.
Here are some common applications for narrow-band amber LED lighting:
- Safety Lighting: providing good visibility without compromising night vision
- Security and Surveillance: discreet illumination for security cameras
- Industrial Applications: minimizing light interference with specific processes or alerting workers to hazardous conditions
- Emergency Vehicle Lighting: warning signals to enhance safety on the road
