Osram's New Oslon SSL LED - The New Class of Light
Its properties provide the basis for high application efficiency thanks to high efficacies even at high currents, simplified thermal management, high reliability and a beam angle of 80°. The LED provides light that is ideal for spotlights, desk lights and ceiling floodlights.
The Oslon SSL is manufactured using the latest chip technology, ensuring a high luminous efficacy. At an operating current of 350 mA this light source achieve a typical brightness of 110 lm in ultra-white (5700 and 6500 K), with a maximum possible luminous flux of 130 lm at present. At an operating current of 350 mA and a color temperature of 3000 K it achieves a typical efficiency of 75 lm/W and a brightness of 85 lm. And brightness is an impressive 155 lm at an operating current of 700 mA (warm white). The advantage here is that applications that demand high lighting levels can be completed with fewer LEDs.
