'SmartHeat®' Technology - How Does it Work?
Step 1
A SmartHeat LED light will automatically turn on at start-up or when
temperatures drop.
Step 2
The SmartHeat technology uses an internal sensor to sense the current
temperature.
If the technology senses the temperature to be below the low temperature
threshold, the heat will stay on to de-ice the lens.
If the technology senses the temperature to be above the high temperature
threshold, the SmartHeat grid system will automatically turn off. This keeps
the lamp from overheating when facing warmer conditions.
Step 3
Once the ice has melted and the light has warmed up to meet the high
temperature threshold, the SmartHeat grid system will automatically turn off.
In extreme temperatures facing constant cold conditions, the SmartHeat grid
system will continue to stay on preventing ice and snow from building on the
lens of the light.
Due to varying sensor locations on the different products in the SmartHeat®
Series, temperature thresholds cannot be measured by outside temperature and
will vary between lights.
