How to Care for Basketball Court Lighting Fixtures

Don’t rush to install the light fixtures after you’ve purchased them. Read the installation instructions carefully and then follow them when installing the fixtures. Otherwise, there could be a danger.

When cleaning and maintaining the fixtures, do not change their structure or replace any parts at random. After maintenance, reassemble the fixtures exactly as they were, ensuring that no parts are missing or incorrectly installed.

Avoid frequently switching between basketball court lighting fixtures. Even though LED lights can withstand approximately eighteen times as many switching cycles as standard fluorescent lamps, excessive switching can shorten the lifespan of the internal electronic components, affecting the fixture’s overall lifespan.

Except for special basketball court lighting fixtures, regular LED lights should not be used in humid environments. Humidity can damage the electronic components of the LED driver power supply, shortening the fixture’s lifespan.

As a result, preventing moisture is critical to the longevity of basketball court lighting fixtures, particularly those used in bathrooms, showers, and kitchen stoves. To prevent damage, corrosion, short circuits, and moisture intrusion, use moisture-proof covers. Lastly, avoid cleaning basketball court lighting fixtures with water. Use a moist cloth to clean them. Dry them completely if they get wet by accident. Never wipe them with a damp cloth right after turning on the lights.

Warm Advice:

1) Ordinary LED lights cannot be used in circuits with dimmable desk lamps, delay switches, or motion sensors.

2) Avoid using them in hot, humid conditions.

3) LED drivers are the most commonly found internal components in basketball court lighting fixtures. To avoid the risk of electric shock, non-professionals should avoid disassembling or reassembling them.

4) Basketball court lighting fixtures perform best in environments with an ambient temperature between 5 and 40°C.

5) Do not use polishing powder or other chemical agents on the metal components of LED light fixtures.

6) To remove dust from behind basketball court lighting fixtures, use a dry cloth or duster.
