Introduction of LED linear high bay
LED linear high bays consist of linear modules housed in robust casings, providing powerful and uniform illumination
over large areas, making them ideal for enhancing visibility and operational efficiency in shelving areas.

Warehouse shelving poses unique challenges for lighting
1. Distribution of Light in High Shelves: Ensuring adequate light reaches all levels of tall shelving units.
2. Energy Efficiency Requirements: Meeting energy-saving mandates while maintaining optimal lighting levels.
3. Safety and Comfort: Ensuring lighting supports safe operations and provides a comfortable working environment
for employees.
Advantages of LED linear high bay over LED UFO high bay to warehouse shelf lighting
1. Uniform light distribution:
LED linear lights are designed in a long strip shape, which can provide more uniform
and continuous light coverage. In the long strip or deep shelf layout, it can effectively reduce shadows and dark
corners, improve the overall lighting effect and the brightness uniformity of the working environment.
While UFO lights are usually circular in design, providing 360° all-round lighting. In a long or deep shelf layout,
the all-round light distributionmay not be effectively covered, resulting in insufficient lighting or shadows in some areas.

2.Installation layout limitations:
LED linear lights are a long strip shape, and installation and adjustment is relatively simple and flexible. UFO light
need to be hung on the top of the warehouse, which is suitable for warehouses of moderate height. However,
for warehouses with higher heights or where the lamps need to be close to the shelves, installation and adjustment
is more complicated or limited.
Overall, LED linear bay are generally better suited for warehouse shelf lighting as they offer more uniform light
distribution, greater adaptability.
Factors to consider when choosing led linear high bay
Key considerations include:
Beam Angle and Light Output: Matching these to the shelving layout ensures optimal coverage and brightness.
Color Temperature Selection: Choosing the right color temperature influences visibility and worker productivity.
Installation and Layout: Proper installation and strategic placement optimize lighting effectiveness.

Case study:
TST Warehousing Project in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
TST Warehousing has 3500m2 warehouse shelves in storing electronics goods.
Before the renovation, the warehouse used 250W 80LM/W Metal Halide lamps, and the average illumination of
the shelves was only 50lux. The shelves had problems such as uneven light and high energy consumption.
By replacing it with Reapway 120W 140LM/W LED linear high bay, the average illumination was doubled to 150lux,
workers said that the working environment was more comfortable and operating efficiency was significantly
improved. Warehouse’s energy consumption reduced by 52%.

Summary:
1: Illumination doubled to 150lux by LED, working environment was more comfortable and operating efficiency
was significantly improved.
2: Electricity saving 52% by LEDs.
3: Total annual electricity savings by LEDs is 91,104kwh and $11934.624.

Customers reviews by project manager Razak bin Osman:
“The LED linear high bay have truly transformed our warehouse operations in Kuala Lumpur. The uniform lighting
eliminates any blind spots, significantly boosting our efficiency. We’re impressed with their energy-saving capabilities
and durability, which have helped us cut down on operational costs. The installation was hassle-free, and maintenance
is minimal, ensuring a great return on investment.”
