LED Flood light or LED Spot light, which one is better for high mast lighting?

2022-02-25

For high mast lighting, it is mainly composed of main pole, lamp base and lamp head. Generally can be divided into lifting and non-lifting. Lamps that can usually support light poles over 15 meters, commonly used light pole heights are 15 meters, 18 meters, 20 meters, 25 meters, 30 meters and other specifications.

The widely used high pole lights include LED spot lights and LED flood lights. There is almost no difference in appearance between the two. The most intuitive difference is that one has a large irradiation angle and the other has a small irradiation angle. It is mainly reflected in the fact that the illumination angle of the light source of the LED floodlight is mostly 80-120°, and the illumination range is relatively wide, while the illumination angle of the LED Spot light is mostly 30-60°, and the illumination range is more concentrated.

Of course, the applicable places of these two kinds of high pole lights are also different. For example, an ordinary shopping plaza does not have high requirements for light intensity. As long as pedestrians can see the road clearly at night, LED floodlights can be used as lamps for high-pole lights in this plaza.

However, in a use environment like a stadium, the requirements for high-pole lamps are obviously much higher, because the stadium includes a running track, a football field, and a basketball court. It involves sports and games at night. Poor light will affect the entire game and Movement quality.


Because the venue is too large, LED floodlights obviously cannot meet the lighting requirements, because the area illuminated by the floodlights is large, but the irradiation distance is very short, and the light can hardly be irradiated to the center of the venue. This kind of venue is more suitable for a lamp with a long irradiation distance and high brightness. LED flood light has become the best choice for this kind of venue.

In the lighting project of a football field in a middle school, the light pole adopts a 15-meter high pole, and is equipped with a high-power high-pole light. The "6+12+6" light distribution method on both sides is used to carry out reasonable light distribution. The unique light distribution design and scientific lighting layout, with uniform lighting brightness and good on-site glare control, provide a high-quality customized lighting solution for the football field.
