Practical Advantages of 120x30 cm LED Panels
Switching to 120x30 cm LED panels offers several advantages that are both practical and economical. These panels are a sustainable alternative to traditional lighting.
- Energy Savings: LED panels consume significantly less energy than outdated fluorescent fixtures. This results in a noticeable reduction in energy costs.
- Long Lifespan: With an expected lifespan averaging 50,000 burning hours, these LED panels require much less frequent maintenance and replacement, further reducing operational costs.
- Even Light Distribution: The advanced technology ensures a uniform and wide light spread without visible light spots, which is comfortable for the eyes.
- Instant Light Output: When switched on, LED panels immediately deliver their full brightness, without any warm-up time or flickering.
- Eco-Friendly Choice: LED panels do not contain mercury or other harmful substances, making them a responsible choice for the environment.

- Workshops and warehouses: The robust construction and bright light output contribute to safety and efficiency.
Important Technical Details of 120x30 cm LED Panels
When choosing the right 120x30 cm LED panel, several technical specifications are important. Understanding these terms will help you select the most suitable lighting.
| Specification | Meaning and Considerations |
|---|---|
| Lumen (lm) | This number indicates the total amount of light emitted, i.e., the brightness. A higher Lumen value means more light. For office spaces, a higher Lumen value is often desired. A 120x30 cm LED panel typically ranges between 3000 and 4600 Lumens. |
| Light Color (Kelvin - K) | The color temperature influences the atmosphere of the room.
|
| Color Rendering Index (CRI) | The CRI indicates how true to life colors are rendered under the light of the panel. A CRI of 80 or higher is considered good and ensures a realistic representation of colors in the space. |
| UGR (Unified Glare Rating) | This is a measure of the degree of glare a lighting installation can cause. A lower UGR value means less glare and more visual comfort. For offices and other workstations with screens, a UGR value of <19 is recommended. For general areas, UGR <22 is often sufficient. |
| IP Rating (Ingress Protection) | The IP rating indicates the protection against dust and moisture. For indoor spaces, IP20 is often sufficient (dust-proof). For more humid environments, a higher IP rating (e.g., IP44 or IP54) may be necessary. |
| Dimmability and CCT Options | Some 120x30 cm panels are dimmable, offering flexibility in light intensity. CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) panels allow you to adjust the light color, for example from warm white to cool white, via a switch or remote control. |
| Power Factor | The power factor (PF) indicates the efficiency of power consumption. A higher PF (e.g., >0.90) means more efficient use of electricity, which contributes to lower energy costs and less strain on the electrical grid. |
Installation Options for 120x30 cm LED Panels
120x30 cm LED panels are versatile in mounting and can be installed in various ways, depending on the ceiling structure and desired aesthetic.
Recessed Mounting (suspended ceiling)
The most common installation method for 120x30 cm LED panels is recessed mounting in a suspended ceiling. These panels are precisely sized to replace a tile in a standard suspended ceiling. The installation is simple: the tile is removed, and the LED panel is placed directly into the open space. This creates a sleek and seamless finish that is flush with the ceiling surface.
Surface Mounting
When a suspended ceiling is not available, or if a visible fixture is preferred, surface mounting can be chosen. A special surface-mounted frame is used for this, which is attached to the existing ceiling. The 60x30cm LED panel is then placed in this frame, causing the fixture to hang like a flat box under the ceiling. This method is suitable for concrete ceilings or other solid surfaces.
Suspension Mounting
For rooms with high ceilings, or when a floating effect is desired, suspension mounting is an ideal solution. The 60x30cm LED panel is hung from the ceiling using steel cables. This creates a modern look and brings the light closer to the surface to be illuminated. A suspension kit includes the necessary cables and mounting hardware.

Back-lit LED Panels: A Choice for Uniform Light Distribution
Within the category of 120x30 cm LED panels, there is a distinction in construction: side-lit and back-lit. Back-lit LED panels, where the LED chips are placed directly on the back of the light guide plate, offer specific advantages. This design ensures an even more uniform light distribution across the entire surface of the panel, without loss of brightness in the center. Additionally, this type of panel is generally considered more robust and has a longer lifespan. This makes back-lit panels a durable choice for spaces where consistent and high-quality light is desired.
Frequently Asked Questions about 120x30 cm LED Panels
Are 120x30 cm LED panels dimmable?
Yes, many 120x30 cm LED panels are dimmable. This often requires a specific dimmable LED driver and a compatible dimmer. Always check the product information for dimmability and the necessary accessories.
Can I connect a 120x30 cm LED panel to my existing ceiling?
In a suspended ceiling, direct replacement is often possible. For solid ceilings, a surface-mounted frame or a suspension cable kit is required. Always ensure a safe power connection.
What accessories do I need for installation?
For recessed mounting, no extra accessories are usually needed, unless the panel has an external driver. For surface mounting, a 120x30 cm surface-mounted frame is required. For suspension mounting, you will need a suspension kit.
