Peachtree City, Ga. – Hella, the North American aftermarket subsidiary of
automotive lighting and electronics supplier released its new Hella Power Beam
3000 LED Work Lamp. This new lamp is extremely powerful and very efficient,
consuming substantially less electricity than standard halogen work lamps. The
Hella LED lamp provides an exceptional output of 3,000 lumens and requires only
43 W of power. It is ideal for highway, agricultural, construction, municipal, forestry
equipment and heavy-duty work truck applications.
The Hella Power Beam 3000 uses 16
long-lasting LEDs to create a powerful white light closest to daylight and more
efficient than Xenon-based lamps. It is available in both close and long-range
illumination models. Hella also incorporates its innovative Free-Form reflector
technology, which is designed to deliver more light output and provide a more
precise beam placement than conventional lamps. Due to its very low power
consumption, the Hella Power Beam 3000 has a lifespan of over 60,000 hours and
will last more than 350 times longer than a traditional halogen lamp.
The Hella Power Beam 3000 utilizes a
specially developed integrated thermal sensor to protect against overheating
and also has built-in overvoltage and reverse polarity protection. It is also
extremely resistant to mechanical action by nylon dispersion lenses. The Power
Beam's housing is made of tough die cast aluminum for light weight and good
heat dissipation and is mounted with a stainless steel bracket. Built-in
shielding also helps protect against interference with other nearby electronic
devices.
The Power Beam 3000 has a multi-volt operating range from 9 to 33V. It comes
completely sealed from the factory and requires no additional service. The lamp
is encased in a sturdy aluminum die-cast housing, which is sealed to IP6K7 and
IP6K9K for harsh conditions.
The Hella Power Beam 3000 is very
compact for its overall power output, measuring only 5.68-inch H by 4.48-inch W
(144.5mm x 114mm). It can operate in ambient temperature ranges from -40°F to
122°F (-40°C to 50°C) and requires an integrated Deutsch plug connection. The
Power Beam 3000 LED also meets Hella Norm N67101 - Class 7.2.
