In this paper the Authors discuss the results of a measurements survey of Artificial Optical Radiation emitted by LED tubes suitable for the substitution of tubular fluorescent lamps. The radiance and irradiance values, measured in a wide range of wavelengths (180¸3000nm), have been analyzed, as required in the EU Directive 2006/25. The measurement results on 8W LED tubes have been compared with the results of similar measurements conducted on 18W (T8) fluorescent lamps. The risk analysis was thorough in the range of wavelengths 300¸700nm in order to define the Risk Group of LED tubes in function of the maximum exposure time as indicated in the European Standard EN 62471.

Abstract

In this paper the Authors discuss the results of a measurements survey of Artificial Optical Radiation emitted by LED tubes suitable for the substitution of tubular fluorescent lamps. The radiance and irradiance values, measured in a wide range of wavelengths (180¸3000nm), have been analyzed, as required in the EU Directive 2006/25. The measurement results on 8W LED tubes have been compared with the results of similar measurements conducted on 18W (T8) fluorescent lamps. The risk analysis was thorough in the range of wavelengths 300¸700nm in order to define the Risk Group of LED tubes in function of the maximum exposure time as indicated in the European Standard EN 62471.
