Tag: xenon lamp
Since Germany’s BMW car in 1991 and published after the HID Principles ( “HID” full name in English: High Intensity Discharge English translation: high-intensity gas discharge lamps), Philips spent five years successfully developed.
The new 1995 Mercedes-Benz E-Class the first application of HID xenon lamp start to the present, more than 2,000 worldwide have more than one million vehicles installed xenon lights.
Popular in Europe, America and Southeast Asia has reached as much as six years, known as the twenty-first century, a revolutionary automotive lighting products and I believe it will be following the ABS braking systems and airbag (airbag) must have the vehicle after the assembly … … HID xenon halogen lamp to enhance the brightness of the original car three times the color better and stronger color temperature is more penetrating power, light farther, performance more stable.
Growing number of cars by the global conversion customers.
At present in Europe for the needs of HID xenon lamp at an annual rate of 13% growth in Japan, the high-end vehicles generally installed the HID xenon headlights, and xenon lights in Hong Kong, this is more popular, domestic car Audi is now also A6 and Passat 2.8V6, Sonata 2.7, etc. installed HID xenon lamp.
The next two to three years, domestic car models equipped with xenon lamp will be greatly increased.
Experts predict that by 2008 the European new car is equipped with the proportion of HID xenon lamp will reach 21% (4.8 million), Japan even as high as 40% (3.8 million).
Xenon headlights to replace the halogen-type trend, will become the new trend of the 21st century.

HID is High intensity Discharge high-pressure gas discharge lamp in abbreviation, it can be called heavy metal lamp or xenon lamp.
Its principle is anti-ultraviolet radiation in the UV-cut crystal quartz glass tube within a variety of chemical gas filling, in which the majority of HID (Xenon) with iodide and other inert gases, and then through a turbocharger (Ballast) the car on 12 volts DC voltage transient pressurization to 23,000 volts of current through the high amplitude excitation of xenon gas inside the quartz tube e-free, in the light created between the two electrodes, which is the so-called gas discharge.
Generated by the xenon arc white super-light, light color temperature can increase the value of a similar day of sun light, HID’s amount of current required only 3.5A to work, it has three times the brightness of traditional halogen light bulbs, 10 times longer than traditional halogen bulb’s service life .

第一,三倍于卤素灯的亮度输出;这个我们需要举例说明:如奥迪A6配备的55瓦H7卤素远光灯只能发出1500流明,而若是一颗功率为35瓦的氙气灯则能发出高达3200个单位的流明度。 First, the three times output brightness of halogen lamps; that we need an example: If the Audi A6 is equipped with 55-watt H7 halogen high beam can only be issued by 1500 lumens, but if a power of 35-watt xenon lamp is able to issue Up to 3200 units of luminance. 这对于提高驾驶者在夜间和雨雾天气的行车安全是不言而喻的! This is to enhance drivers in the night and rain and fog weather, road safety is self-evident!
第二,1/2的能量消耗;氙气灯在提供相当于卤素灯三倍亮度的同时还能省下近半的能量。 Second, 1 / 2 the energy consumption; Xenon lamps provide the equivalent of three times the brightness of halogen lamps while saving nearly half of energy. 换言之,普通的轿车若使用卤素大灯,它的功率大都在50W~70W之间,而若是换作更亮的氙气灯,则只需要35W就足够。 In other words, if the use of a conventional car, halogen headlights, and its power mostly in between 50W ~ 70W, while the change if more bright Xenon lamp, only need to 35W is enough.
第三,近7倍于卤素灯的使用寿命;前面已经讲到,卤素灯的发光原理是由钨丝发热所致,而钨丝在长久的高温下难保不烧断损坏,所以它们的使用寿命只有200~300个小时左右。 Third, nearly seven times the service life of halogen lamps; As already mentioned, halogen light-emitting principle is caused by a tungsten filament heating, while the tungsten filament in the long term there will definitely be blown under high temperature damage, so they are the life of 200 ~ 300 hours or so. 而氙气灯是利用电流刺激气体发光,基本上不会产生过高温度,所以只要其中的氙气没有耗尽,它就可以一直正常发光,因而其使用寿命得到了极大的延续。 The xenon lamp current to stimulate the use of luminous gas, basically does not produce high temperature, so long as one of the xenon have not run out, it could have been a normal light, thus their service life has been greatly extended. 现在氙气灯的使用寿命达到了2000个小时,这个数字将意味着它能伴随汽车的一生。 Now life xenon lamp has reached 2000 hours, this figure would mean that it can accompany vehicle’s life. 单就这点,氙气灯也贵的值得。 Insofar as this point, xenon lamp is also expensive is worth.
此外,氙气灯除了上面提到的三个突出优点外,它由于发光色温更高,因而光色更接近于日光,所以即便是亮度更高,但却并不眩目,这对于保护夜间行人和其他驾车者的行为不被干扰也是非常重要的! In addition, xenon lamp apart from the above-mentioned three outstanding merits, it is due to a higher color temperature light, so light color closer to sunlight, so even higher brightness, but it is not eye-opening, which at night to protect pedestrians and other drivers are not interfering with the conduct is also very important!

First, the three times output brightness of halogen lamps; that we need an example: If the Audi A6 is equipped with 55-watt H7 halogen high beam can only be issued by 1500 lumens, but if a power of 35-watt xenon lamp is able to issue Up to 3200 units of luminance.
