Optimize LED Efficiency & Lifespan – Get LM-79 & LM-80 Certified with EVTL India

In today’s energy-conscious world, LED lighting has become the preferred choice for residential, commercial, and industrial applications due to its energy efficiency and long lifespan. However, for LED manufacturers and importers, ensuring that their lighting products meet the necessary performance and quality benchmarks is essential to gain customer trust, achieve compliance, and access global markets. EVTL India offers comprehensive LM-79 and LM-80 testing services, helping LED brands optimize their products for both efficiency and durability while ensuring full regulatory compliance.

What are LM-79 and LM-80 Testing Standards?

The LM-79 and LM-80 standards, developed by the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES), define key performance metrics for LED lighting products.

• LM-79 Testing: This standard outlines the procedures for measuring the photometric and electrical performance of LED luminaires and integrated LED lamps. LM-79 testing evaluates parameters such as luminous flux (light output), luminous efficacy (lumens per watt), color characteristics (CCT, CRI), power consumption, and light distribution.

• LM-80 Testing: This standard focuses on measuring the lumen maintenance and color maintenance of LED light sources over time. LM-80 testing is critical to estimating the lifespan and performance degradation of LEDs, ensuring long-term reliability.
  
  

Together, these tests provide manufacturers, designers, and regulators with credible data regarding an LED product’s efficiency, quality, and longevity.

Why is LM-79 & LM-80 Testing Important?

1. Product Performance Validation

Customers expect lighting products to deliver the brightness, energy efficiency, and color quality as claimed. LM-79 & LM-80 testing validates these performance metrics through objective, standardized testing protocols. This builds trust in your brand.

2. Regulatory Compliance

Whether you're targeting Indian markets under the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) or exporting to North America, Europe, or Asia, LM-79 and LM-80 reports are often mandatory for certifications like BEE Star Rating, ENERGY STAR, UL, and CE compliance. Testing with EVTL India ensures your products meet these global and local compliance standards.

3. Competitive Advantage

LED brands that provide verified performance data gain a competitive edge. Transparent product specifications backed by third-party testing help differentiate your products in a crowded market.

4. Enhanced Product Lifespan

By identifying potential weaknesses during testing, manufacturers can improve their product design, materials, or thermal management, leading to enhanced durability and operational lifespan.
