DialightTechnology Comparison
LED High Pressure Sodium
Typical makeup of bulb material

DialightPower Consumption / Dimmability
Light Source Watts Dimmability Dimming Limit
High Pressure Sodium 100 – 500 Requires special ballast 50%
LED 43 – 170 Yes 10%
Energy savings and CO2 emissions reductionReplace 400W conventional light source with 150W LED High Bay for immediate energy savings of 60%, even more when you use dimming and proximity sensors.
On average 100 Dialight DuroSite LED High Bays can reduce CO2 emissions by 125 tons per annum (12/7 operation).
DimmingDimming options for LEDs include STEP dimming for specified light level percentages or variable dimming for custom light output levels determined by the installer/customer. A special ballast is required to dim mercury vapor lamps.

DisposalThe Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Universal Waste Rule (UWR) regulate the disposal of lamps containing mercury. LEDs themselves contain no mercury or harmful materials, which require special handling or unique recycling.
Philips 1000W Mercury Content: 44 mg
GE 400WMercury Content: 30 mg
LEDMercury Content: 0 mg
