In recent years, due to the increasing demand for replacement of LED lamps, governments in various countries have also actively supported them with related stickers, and LED industrial lighting has grown rapidly. According to the latest research report of LEDinside, the green energy business division of TrendForce, the global LED industrial lighting market reached US$2.932 billion in 2016, with an annual growth rate of over 15%, and the market size in 2020 will reach US$5.204 billion.

In the application of industrial lighting, due to the demand for replacement, the LED explosion-proof lamp market has a promising prospect. The use of LED explosion-proof lights is to prevent the ignition of explosive impurities around, such as explosive gas, dust, and gas. The specific method used by the lamps is widely used in special working conditions where electrical noise and dust are flammable and explosive. Wu Yingjie, deputy research manager of LEDinside, said that thanks to the advancement of petroleum and related industries, explosion-proof lights occupy a large market position in mining, petroleum, military, transportation, electric power and other industrial fields.

LED explosion-proof lights have been used for many years, and various companies have also controlled more experience in research and development, and developed generations of products, which basically meet the application requirements of dangerous occasions. Wu Yingjie pointed out that LED explosion-proof lamps are smaller in size, lighter in weight, longer in life and more affordable than traditional explosion-proof lamps, which are highly satisfied by users. For lighting applications in the petroleum and petrochemical industries, such as considering the overall quality of the project, safety performance, cost control and future regulations for the elimination of mercury lamps, choosing mature LED explosion-proof lamps is the only way.

The protection scale of explosion-proof lamp equipment depends on the environment and area. Due to the continuous expansion of international commercial exchanges, the electrical explosion-proof technology represented by the IEC standard has been used more and more in the world. The application and installation of American electrical equipment products must comply with the requirements of the American Electrical Regulations NEC 500 / NEC 505, and at the same time, the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) will come to the site for assessment. Other countries use IEC and NEC 500 / NEC 505 as the benchmark, and propose corresponding equipment protection standards. For example, China adopts GB3836 national standard. Wu Yingjie said that due to the different national standards and the high cost of product certification, only local factories can provide safe product installation, maintenance, and after-sales services.
