Our team can assist in designing and implementing the appropriate protective measures to ensure the safety and functionality of your high mast lighting system.

DALI/DMX Control

The DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) and DMX (Digital Multiplex) control systems offer exceptional flexibility and convenience for managing LED lights mounted on high mast poles. These advanced control systems allow for precise and centralized control of multiple luminaires simultaneously, enhancing the efficiency and functionality of your lighting setup.

By integrating our LED high mast lights with a DALI or DMX gateway, you gain the ability to operate your lighting system through a user-friendly interface, such as a computer or a dedicated control panel. This integration enables you to perform various tasks, including turning lights on or off, adjusting brightness levels, and dimming the lights with great accuracy.

DALI systems provide the advantage of individual addressing, allowing each light to be controlled independently or as part of a group. This feature is particularly beneficial for creating dynamic lighting scenarios or making adjustments based on specific needs or events.

DMX control, originally developed for stage lighting, offers robust capabilities for real-time adjustments and complex control setups. It allows for seamless communication between the control system and the lights, facilitating precise management of light intensity and effects.

Cost of High Mast Lights

Running Costs of LED High Mast Lighting

When considering the replacement of high mast lighting with LEDs, one of the most frequently asked questions is about the cost of running these lights. Understanding the running costs is a crucial factor, as it often represents a significant incentive for retrofitting existing metal halide, halogen, or high-pressure sodium (HPS) bulbs with energy-efficient LED alternatives.

To illustrate, let’s break down the running costs for a high mast pole equipped with 20 x 1000W LED lights. The calculation for the daily, monthly, and annual running costs is as follows:

Daily Cost: (20 x 1000W) x 12 hours/day x $0.12/kWh ÷ 1000 = $28.80

Monthly Cost: $28.80/day x 30 days = $864

Annual Cost: $864/month x 12 months = $10,512

This calculation pertains to a single pole. If an airport, seaport, or sports stadium has 20 such poles, the cumulative running costs would be:

Daily Cost for 20 Poles: $28.80 x 20 = $576

Monthly Cost for 20 Poles: $576 x 30 = $17,280

Annual Cost for 20 Poles: $17,280 x 12 = $210,240

Before replacing with LEDs, high mast poles typically use around 60,000W of metal halide or 200,000W to achieve similar brightness levels. The electricity costs for these older lighting technologies are substantially higher. By switching to LED lights, you can potentially save up to $95,000 annually per high mast pole in operating costs, thanks to reduced energy consumption.

In addition to lowering your electricity bills, LED lights contribute to reduced energy consumption and lower carbon emissions, aligning with sustainability goals. Moreover, the extended lifespan of LED lights diminishes the frequency of replacements, thereby reducing waste and the environmental impact associated with the disposal of outdated luminaires.

Cost Considerations for LED High Mast Lamps

While retrofitting high-intensity discharge (HID) lights with LED technology can result in significant savings on operating costs, a common question is whether the initial purchase of LED high mast lamps is expensive. Based on our market research, we have compiled a summary of the price ranges for high mast LED lights, along with their equivalent metal halide replacements and the potential running cost savings after replacement.

Here is a detailed breakdown:

As shown in the table, there is a notable variation in the prices of high mast LED lights. For example, the price of 1000W high mast lights can vary by approximately 200% between the highest and lowest prices available in the market.
