In accordance with national regulations and the requirements of the No. 83 document of the International Sports Federation Commission. Reasonably arrange the positions of the lamps to reduce the glare effect on the players, at the same time, make the light distribution overlap, improve the uniformity, and reduce the shadow. The standard outdoor basketball court is the FIBA standard, so the basketball court is 28 meters long and 15 meters wide. The selection of lighting fixtures is very important. The power, lighting range and controllable lighting angle of the lighting fixture directly determine the number and location of purchased lighting fixtures and poles.

Outdoor basketball court light source

The majority of metal halide and LED lights are used in sports facilities. From the comprehensive consideration of light source efficiency, color rendering, life and other characteristics, metal halide lamps and LED lamps are excellent and are the trend of the world. In addition, there are many examples of mixed lighting of sports facilities using multiple light sources with different characteristics, and there are many types of uses for basketball courts, and each use requires the best lighting environment.

1. Halogen lamps

halogen lamps (metal halide lamps HID) as a lighting source for outdoor basketball courts were popular in a certain period of time. With the advantages of high brightness, good luminous efficiency, and convenient maintenance, halogen lamps were first widely used in outdoor large billboards, stations, docks, and industrial and mining enterprises, and then introduced to outdoor basketball court lighting. A standard outdoor basketball court (32×19 meters). With 4-6 halogen lamps of about 400W, it can fully meet the needs of basketball court lighting. The halogen lamp also has the advantages of long range, strong penetrating power and uniform light emission, so even if a small number of lamps are installed at a place far from the sideline of the court, the lighting requirements of the basketball court can be realized. The disadvantages of halogen lamps are that they have relatively high power and low energy consumption ratio, and that the light intensity is too high and long-term exposure to such light will affect the visual judgment of athlete.

2. LED replace traditional metal halide lamps

With the further implementation of the national policy of national fitness and building a sports power, the concept of protecting the environment, saving energy and reducing emissions has gained popular support, and the advantages of LED lighting in basketball courts have become more prominent. Basketball lighting, an unobtrusive part of China’s sporting goods manufacturing industry, is using it to illuminate the light without glare, and illuminate the intelligent road of the industry. In the field of LED basketball lighting, we deepen the full-cycle service chain from drawings to design, engineering project budget, post-engineering services, and engineering construction guidance. To provide customers with personalized custom services to fully meet customer needs, LED sports lighting products, with its professional, efficient, energy saving, environmental protection, anti-glare, long life and other characteristics, are widely favored by the market. LEDs replace traditional metal halide lamps.

Why LED lights can replace metal halide lamps

First, as a prerequisite, it is required that the lighting efficiency is high, the effect is good, and the necessary illumination can be obtained. This can reduce the number of lights, thereby saving power (energy saving>, and good light distribution characteristics to ensure good illumination distribution (horizontal plane, vertical plane> and uniformity. The light distribution characteristics of the appliance are wide-illumination or wide-angle, this kind of the light intensity in the center of the light distribution will not be too high, which is based on the glare requirements of athletes and spectators. People are enjoying more and more demanding basketball court facilities while enjoying basketball. Good venues, equipment, and lighting can give Basketball players bring great pleasure, but the most important and most difficult to deal with is the element of light. Compared with commercial lighting and home lighting, LED basketball lighting is special in that: on the one hand, to protect the audience Watching games, TV broadcasting games and other functions, basketball lighting must ensure sufficient illumination; on the other hand, in basketball courts that require high professionalism and sensory experience, the lighting must be bright without glare, uniform and effective. Control the spillover light to ensure that basketball players can complete the task of the game normally.

1. Comparative advantages of LED lights and metal halide lamps

Energy saving: At present, the luminous efficiency of the 50-watt LED lamp is more than 50001m, which is equivalent to the illuminance of a 150-watt metal halide lamp. It can also reduce the power consumption of about 20-watt rectifiers, and the power saving rate can reach more than 50%.

Lifetime: Based on the current technology level and test results, the lifespan of LED industrial and mining lamps can reach 50,000 hours, while the lifespan of traditional metal halide lamps is less than 5,000 hours, and it should be replaced once in less than one year. It needs to be replaced every 3 months.

Environmental protection: Because there is no ultraviolet and infrared in the spectrum, neither heat nor radiation, it is a green light source. Compared with the traditional lighting of metal halide lamps, LED industrial and mining lamps are mercury-free, waste can be recycled and there is no pollution.

2. Comparison of application and energy saving

High-pressure mercury lamps are widely used in roads, tunnels, and factory lighting. However, high-pressure mercury lamps currently have the disadvantages of slow start, strong strobe, high power consumption, high temperature, and high noise. Metal halide lamps have good luminosity and are widely used in factories, shopping malls, urban lighting, road lighting, and stadiums: but metal halide lamps generally have short life, large power consumption, strobe lights, glare, and power with voltage Large fluctuations and slow start. Bring a lot of trouble to users. High-power LED lights, with an ultra-high life of 50,000 hours, special power saving, high light efficiency, high color rendering, no flicker, instant start and restart, maintenance-free and many other advantages, LED lights will completely replace in the near future Application of high pressure sodium lamp and metal halide lamp.

Comprehensive comparison, it can be clearly seen that LED lamps have the following advantages over high-pressure mercury lamps and metal halide lamps: save money and energy, low comprehensive cost, long service life, low surface humidity, safe and reliable, and environmentally friendly light source LED lights use no flicker, protect eyesight, can start instantly without waiting.
