What Is The Difference Between LED Panel And LED Troffer?

 Differences:

  1. Appearance
  2. Installation Method: Troffer lights are primarily recessed into the ceiling grid. Panel lights are surface-mounted or suspended. 

Advantages of Troffer Lights:

  • High Lighting Quality

-1) CRI (Color Rendering Index)

The CRI is a scale from 0 to 100 that measures how accurately a light source depicts the color of objects and people, as compared to natural daylight. It is important to role lighting fixtures quality. The higher the CRI index, the better the lighting effect.

-2) Photometric

The greater the Angle, the more diffuse the light, and the larger the area it illuminates. The smaller the Angle, the more concentrated the light, and the more concentrated the light appears, although the illuminated area is smaller, the average brightness is higher.

-3) Brightness

LED troffer lighting is designed to provide enough brightness use in various commercial, industrial, and even residential locations. 

-4) 3CCT

Different color temperatures can create different atmospheres and feelings.

  • Energy

-1) 0-10V Dimmable

Using less energy not only saves money but also extends LED light's use life.

-2) Wattage Selectable

Users can avoid buying more types of lighting fixtures to suit different spaces by adjusting the wattage and color of the lights. Besides, at the same brightness, the smaller the wattage, the less power is used.

  • Long Lifespan

  • Lower Cost

The Recessed Troffer Light uses advanced LED technology, and LED lamps are currently the most affordable.

  • Humanization Design

The recessed troffer lighting provides broad, even illumination across space, making them well-suited for ambient lighting. It can also emit a softer, healthy glow that helps users reduce eye strain and fatigue.

How To Install The LED Troffer Light?

LED Troffer Light Installation

Step 01: Bend out the mounting tab 90 degrees on each corner.

Step 02: Use side cutters to adjust each tab to the height of the T-grid.

Step 03: Lay fixture into T-gird grid.

Step 04: Bend tabs flush against the T-grid to clear the corner for the ceiling tile.

Step 05: Use a #8x1/4" sheet metal screw to fasten the fixture to T-grid and use a hangerwire to tie it off appropriately by local building codes(screws and hanger wires supplied by others).

Step 06: Ensure that the wiring of the last fixture in the row is properly terminated. Then make all electrical connections to the fixture. Attach the wiring access cover plate.

Step 07: The end users may adjust the color temperature and lumen output respectively by thetwo DlP switch buttons integrated into the driver. Each DlP switch is accommodated with 3 options (left, middle, and right ), corresponding to 3 color temperatures and 3powers respectively, which can perform the desired color temperature and lumen output combination.

How To Choose The Troffer Light?

Size
  • The most popular sizes: 2x2ft, 2x4ft
  • The fixture's size should be proportional to the room's size. The bigger the space, the bigger the luminaire.
Brightness
  • Color Temperature: 3CCT, 5CCT
  • Lumens: The larger the value, the brighter the lighting effect.
  • CRI
Energy Conservation
Certification 

How Many Troffer Lights Do I Need For A Room?

The main factors that affect the number of lamps are as follows:

  • Room Type:

The room's purpose decides the amount of light you need.

For example:

 Room Type  Brightness
 Office  40 lumens per square foot
 Bathroom  70–80 lumens per square foot
 Bedroom   10–20 lumens per square foot
  • Room size

When the size of the luminaire remains the same, a larger room requires a larger number of luminaires

  • Room layout
  • Ceiling height

The higher the ceiling, the brighter the lamps.

  • Dark walls and furniture

If your walls and furniture are dark, you may need an additional 5-10 lumens per square foot.

  • Personal preference

If you prefer a brighter space, you can add an additional 10% lumens to the calculations.
