PREFACE
THE SAFE ALTERNATIVE –
LIGHT BULBS FROM HELLA
As the expert and technological leader in smart light distribution
systems, halogen, xenon and full LED headlamps, and as a
partner to renowned vehicle manufacturers throughout the
world, HELLA always meets the highest expectations and quality
standards in agriculture and forestry.
These are the specific standards we apply to our extensive range
of light bulbs: Product diversity—from traditional halogen lights
all the way to efficient xenon light—leading technology with
rigorously tested quality without any compromises and optimum
light output levels, even in the harshest weather conditions.
This ensures that our long-lasting, robust products not only
prevent annoying and costly standstill time, but are also
significantly safer. To brighten up your work day.
LIGHT SOURCES
Good visibility is the most important criterion for road safety.
Various circumstances can impair this visibility, including twilight,
adverse weather conditions, dirty windshields, etc. The risk of
accidents is comparatively high under these kinds of driving
conditions.
Here is a summary of the most important basic terms in lighting technology and the respective units of measure for lamp and light evaluation.
Luminous flux Φ
Unit: lumen [lm]
Luminous flux F is the term used to
describe the complete luminous
efficacy radiated from a light source.
Changing and continually increasing mobility and traffic density
also contribute to a higher risk. To meet these challenges
successfully, we are constantly working towards improving
existing lighting systems as well as developing new technical
lighting equipment.
Luminous intensity I
Unit: candela [cd]
This is the portion of the luminous
flux radiating in a specific direction.
Luminous efficacy ŋ
Unit: lumen per watt [lm/W]
Luminous efficacy ŋ specifies how
efficiently consumed electrical power
is converted into light.
Illuminance E
Unit: lux [lx]
Illuminance E specifies the incident
luminous flux per unit of illuminated
area. Illuminance is 1 lx when a
luminous flux of 1 lm strikes an area
of 1 m².
Luminance L
Unit: candela per square meter [cd/
2
m
] Luminance L is the amount of
brightness detected by the eye from a
luminous or illuminated surface.
Light sources
Light sources are thermal radiators
that produce light through heat
energy. This means the more a light
source is heated, the higher its
luminous intensity will be.
THE RIGHT SOLUTION, EVERY TIME
COLOR SPECTRUM SHOWING
TYPICAL COLOR TEMPERATURES
The color temperature of light sources is measured in kelvin
(symbol K). Color temperatures over 4,000 K are called 'cold'
colors (bluish white), while lower temperatures (yellowish to
reddish) are considered 'warm'.
The higher the color temperature of a light source, the higher the
proportion of blue in its color spectrum (see image below). An
incandescent bulb has a warm white color temperature of
approx. 2700 K. The following image depicts the color
temperature spectrum.
All HELLA bulbs undergo thorough testing. The engineers in
Hella’s Quality Assurance department have specified a clear
requirement profile for every bulb type.
Headlamp bulbs, for example, are stringently tested by our
engineers for their light distribution properties. The very latest in
light measuring equipment is used for this.
Paint adhesion tests compliant with FAKRA guidelines (German
Association of Automotive Experts), vibration and shock tests in
line with IEC requirements, geometric measurements, light flux
and efficacy measurements, plus endurance tests guarantee that
wholesalers and garages receive perfect quality.
Quality assurance is very important to us
Ensuring you and your customers are satisfied. This is why
HELLA’s quality assurance engineers carry out exhaustive testing
of all our bulbs to ensure their high quality.
And it is thanks to these extensive tests and our OE lighting
expertise that you can rely on our guaranteed quality standard.
The results of consistent quality testing
Renowned vehicle manufacturers have been relying on our
technological innovations and trusting HELLA's expertise,
experience and quality for years.
