The reliability of LED products is one of the important specifications used to estimate the lifespan of LED products. Even under most different conditions, general LED products can continue to operate. However, once the LED is corroded, it undergoes chemical reactions with the surrounding environment, which can reduce the performance of the industrial LED work light.

The best way to avoid LED corrosion is to avoid LED approaching harmful substances. Even a small amount of harmful substances can cause LED corrosion. Even if LED only comes into contact with corrosive gases during the processing process, such as machines in the production line, it may still have adverse effects. In these cases, it is usually possible to observe whether the LED components are damaged before actual system setup. Especially, sulfur pollution should be avoided.

The following are some examples that may contain Corrosive substance (especially hydrogen sulfide):

O-ring (O-RING)

Washers

Organic rubber

Foam pad

Sealing rubber

Sulfurized elastomers containing sulfur

Shockproof pad

If harmful substances cannot be completely avoided, LED with higher corrosion resistance should be used. However, please remember – the effect of limiting corrosion depends on the concentration of harmful substances. Even if you choose more durable LED flood lights, you should try to minimize the exposure of these LED materials.

Usually, heat, humidity, and light can accelerate the corrosion process. However, the main influencing factors are the concentration level and temperature of harmful substances, which will be important methods for protecting LEDs.
