SEECOL manufactures and sells eco-friendly lighting products including induction lamps. Induction lamps create light through electromagnetic excitation of mercury particles without electrodes. They are more efficient and longer lasting than conventional lamps. SEECOL aims to provide green lighting solutions and reduce energy usage and environmental impact through their product offerings.
2. About SEECOL
SEECOL has significant product offering for various
applications such as general office lighting, High bay
lighting, Architectural lighting and lighting for rural
application which are gaining steady acceptance in the
market.
Go Green the SEECOL way : Lighting accounts for a
minimum of 25% of the energy used in an office.
Sumedha’s GO GREEN initiative is by adopting "changing
the world starts with simple actions". Eco friendly
products help preserve energy resources and reduce the
risks of global warming while saving money and time
buying and changing lights in your Home & Office.
3. Induction Lamps
• Induction lamps are a promising technology
which features good efficiency and long life.
Induction Lamps create light by using an
electromagnetic field to excite mercury particles
mixed in an inert gas like argon or krypton. The
mercury creates a UV light and a phosphor on the
inside of the bulb or tube filters the energy into
visible light. This is a type of fluorescent light.
Unlike a standard fluorescent light this does not
use electrodes in the tube.
5. Induction Lamps
• As an India based supplier/manufacturer of induction
Lamps, SEECOl has been in the development,
manufacturing and merchandising of eco friendly
lighting products since several years. SEECOL keeps a
leading position in the field of energy-saving eco friedly
lighting with entirely independent intellectual property
right.
• We export induction lamps and fixtures throughout the
world, servicing in a diverse range of markets including
plants growing, landscape planting, outdoor,
commercial, industrial, school classroom, libraries,
sports ground, tunnels, city lighting and stuff.
7. Induction Lamps
• SEECOL's induction lamp has been successfully
applied to numerous lighting projects. Its
significant energy saving effect has been
recognized by every customer.
• With belief that science and technology
creates the future, we will continue to provide
our customers with best green lighting
products and bring the environmental friendly
induction lamps to the whole world.

Working of Induction Lamps:
• Induction Lamps create light by using an electromagnetic field to excite
mercury particles mixed in an inert gas like argon or krypton. The mercury
creates a UV light and a phosphor on the inside of the bulb or tube filters
the energy into visible light. This is a type of fluorescent light. Unlike a
standard fluorescent light, induction lamps do not use electrodes in the
tube.
• The induction lamps have three parts: frequency generator
(ballast), discharge tube and electromagnet (aka: inductor, energy
coupling coils or energizing coils).
• First the ballast creates high frequency current (230 or 250 KHz).
• The current is sent through the electromagnet and an electric field is
produced. The number of turns (times the wire is wrapped around the
iron core) is determined by how each product is designed (so it is not
consistent among different lamps).
• Energy is transferred from the magnet to the mercury in the tube in the
same way that a transformer works... induction.
• The mercury vapour emits UV light which strikes the phosphor and makes
light.

• The ballast is made of four parts. First is an EMI
filter to reduce harmonics from the supply of
alternating current. The next part is a bridge
rectifier; this converts AC to DC power. After that
is the PFC circuit which boosts the DC voltage to a
constant 400 V value and increases the power
factor to 0.95+. The final part of the ballast is an
inverter which converts the DC power to high
frequency AC. For a more advanced discussion of
the ballast and control read here.
13. Induction Lamps
There are three kinds of induction lamps: external, internal
and HEP
• External Induction Lamp - this uses an induction coil
mounted outside of the bulb or tube. The metal coil which
is covered by a sheath is clearly visible. A soft or rubberized
material is used to prevent the metal ring from coming in
direct contact with the glass tube.
• Internal Induction Lamp - this works on the same principle
as the external induction lamp except that the
electromagnet is placed inside of the glass bulb. This is
typically used when you need a small lamp in a normal
household socket.
• High Efficiency Plasma (HEP) - A new type of induction
lamp has been developed called the high efficiency plasma
or HEP. The HEP lamp performs at 90 lumens per system
watt.

• Sulfur Lamp - The sulfur lamp is also a plasma
lamp. It uses microwave radiation to excite
sulfur vapor mixed with argon to create light.
2.45 GHz radiation hits an electrode less bulb
that contains a sulfur powder. You can identify
the lamp by a metal screen on the outside of
the lamp. The bulb operates at a very high
temperature and most models need a fan for
cooling.
