A new 36-page catalogue describes the MG-Wave LED lighting system range and provides an illustrated technical introduction to the patented technology.
Moritex has developed a patent pending constant current detection control system in which the heat-generating limiting resistor is relocated from inside the light to the power source, thereby enabling heat emission to be controlled.
Using the constant current system in conjunction with a proprietary heat dissipation system MG-Wave lighting achieves a typical temperature reduction of around 20C and a 40% increase in luminous intensity compared with a conventional LED.
MG-Wave lighting provides longer stable images than other forms of lighting.
Unlike other forms of lighting there is no deterioration caused by repeatedly switching the light on and off.
Operating across a narrow bandwidth MG-Wave makes it easy to acquire the contrast critical for image processing.
Incorporating small light source elements enables MG-Wave to deliver lighting dimensions optimised to application.
Incorporated in the light the MG-Wave constant current detection system reads the signal to control the rated current that is adjusted to the number of LEDs in every lighting module.
Consequently MG-Wave has the flexibility to offer its industry leading performance for any type of lighting configuration.
