LED Engin launches phosphor LEDs
The company's Studio White LED emitters offer a daylight colour temperature of 5300K with a CRI greater than 85. This results in bright lighting and natural skin tones
LED Engin has launched the Studio White range of cool white LED emitters for designers of broadcast and studio lighting.

The application demands high CRI in daylight colour temperatures to make people look natural under artificial light. This is normally achieved using high intensity discharge (HID) arc lamps.
However, such lamps are bulky, run very hot and need high electrical voltages from which to operate, creating potential health and fire hazards. They also suffer from deteriorating performance with age. LED Engin says its Studio White emitters allow lighting designers to create fixtures that are smaller, lighter, deliver consistent performance over time, do not get excessively hot and run from safe, low voltages.
They feature a daylight colour temperature of 5300K, a colour rendering index (CRI) of greater than 85 and R9 red content of 50 which results in natural rendering of skin tones and other colours. The firm says standard daylight white LED emitters do not match this performance.
The Studio White emitters come in a range of package sizes for different power ratings from 10W to 80W, delivering between 600 and 4400 lumens output. The emitters, based on the company's LuxiGen technology platform, have the lowest thermal resistance per footprint for reliable, high flux density designs in a sleek, small form factor.
LED Engin also offers a complementary range of total internal reflection (TIR) lenses ranging from 9° narrow spot to 50° wide flood beam versions. The compact emitter/ lens combination produces uniform lighting on the target area, smooth beam profiles and minimises light outside the target area, reducing unwanted glare compared to HID and larger LED array solutions.
David Tahmassebi, President and CEO of LED Engin, comments, "Our Studio White emitters meet the specific colour temperature and colour quality requirements of general studio lighting to fulfil a need that cannot be met with standard daylight white LEDs. These new emitters deliver best-in-class flux and colour stability over time thanks to our technically advanced LuxiGen platform."
LED Engin's colour offerings consist of red, deep red, far red, green, blue, amber, dental blue and white in the visible range and ultra violet (365nm and 400nm) and infrared (850nm) in the non-visible range.
The multi-chip packages are also available with multi colour / wavelength options such as RGB, RGBA or Dental Blue & UV.
LED Engin will be demonstrating the new Studio White emitters and TIR lenses at Prolight + Sound, Frankfurt, Germany, between April 10th and 13th, 2013, in Hall 9.0, F43.
