Smart Vision Lights and Teledyne FLIR Forge: A Powerful Partnership for Harsh Environments

Smart Vision Lights (SVL), a leading innovator in LED illumination, has announced a new range of washdown lighting solutions specifically designed for seamless integration with Teledyne FLIR's robust Forge 1GigE IP67 camera series. This collaboration marks a significant step forward for industrial automation in challenging environments like food and beverage processing and smart agriculture, offering improved efficiency and reduced maintenance costs.

The partnership addresses a critical need in modern industrial automation: streamlined system integration. Often, integrating lighting and cameras requires extensive customization and troubleshooting, delaying projects and increasing costs. SVL's new washdown lights are engineered to work perfectly with the Teledyne Forge ecosystem, simplifying installation and ensuring cohesive operation. This streamlined approach allows for quicker deployment and reduces the likelihood of integration issues.

Furthermore, the lights are built to withstand the rigors of demanding industrial settings. With IP67 and higher ingress protection ratings, including an IP69K rating for the LZEW linear washdown light, these lights are impervious to dust and water, dramatically reducing the need for maintenance and extending their operational lifespan. This durability is particularly crucial in environments like food and beverage processing, where regular cleaning is essential and exposure to moisture is commonplace. The extended lifespan also translates to significant cost savings over the product's lifetime.

SVL’s commitment to comprehensive solutions is evident in their choice of form factors. The lineup includes the LZEW linear washdown light (IP69K rated), the RMXW140 washdown light, and an upcoming IP67-rated version of the popular JWL150 light, catering to a wide variety of industrial lighting needs. This range of options ensures that users can find the perfect fit for their specific application, maximizing efficiency and utility within the Forge ecosystem.

The integration process is further simplified through the availability of compatible brackets and cables from Components Express, Inc. (CEI), guaranteeing a smooth and trouble-free installation. This complete ecosystem approach minimizes potential bottlenecks and expedites project completion.

Dave Spaulding, President and CEO of Smart Vision Lights, emphasizes the significance of this collaboration: "Our new lighting solutions...are specifically designed to enhance operational efficiency in harsh environments," he states. "With features like enhanced dust and water resistance, our products ensure reduced maintenance and a longer operational lifespan, crucial for the demanding conditions of the food and beverage and agriculture industries."

In conclusion, the partnership between Smart Vision Lights and Teledyne FLIR represents a significant advancement in industrial automation. By providing a seamless integration of high-performance, durable lighting solutions with a robust camera system, they are empowering businesses to operate more efficiently and effectively in the most challenging environments. This collaboration sets a new standard for durability, ease of integration, and overall performance in the industrial lighting sector.
