LED COLOR Tolerances

 

LED COOL LIGHTS (LCL) takes great pride in the manufacturing standards set to control "LED Color Temperature Tolerances".

Our manufacturing standards lead the industry on color matching LED''s.

Although we have implemented "Color Binning" criteria in our manufacturing processes, there may be a slight color temperature difference when multiple LED's are used in a single project. These color differences are most noticed when color mixing white, with red, green, & blue (RGB). LCL does not guarantee 100% color match. LCL will conduct quality checks on every P.O prior to shipping and makes every effort to ensure the Color Temperatures do not show significant color variations.

 

LED Color Temperature Tolerances

The color of white light can vary greatly, from a warm yellow-white to a cool blue-white. Most phosphor-based, high-power white LEDs on the market today show significant color variations from one white LED to another. In side-by-side applications, such as wall washers or in an LED array, this color variation may be noticeable and unpleasing. As white LEDs make their way into the general illumination market, color consistency becomes critical for acceptance. LCL has some of the industries highest standards in delivering a pure white LED in all products.

Rather than changing LED manufacturing processes, color binning (i.e., sorting by color appearance) is a more cost-effective option for creating white LED arrays with consistent color. But then the question becomes: How much color variation can there be between similar white LEDs? The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) specifies a 4-step MacAdam ellipse—a region plotted on a color space diagram showing where colors are perceived to be the same—as the color-tolerance criterion for certain types of fluorescent lamps. Though color tolerance is well-known for light sources such as fluorescent, researchers have not investigated color tolerance for LEDs.

Due to the rapidly expanding industry, LED products are continuously being improved upon in ever shortening manufacturing cycles. LED color and product appearance can change from order to order. LED COOL LIGHTS cannot guarantee to replace the product exactly to match the product you are replacing or matching in product appearance, color, or brightness.
