How to choose the right Outdoor LED Sign?

In terms of technical characteristics, LED screens or LED panels are the most efficient equipment, and their image quality and reliability are better than any projection equipment or plasma screen.

The modern market provides a wide range of LED screens, which makes the choice of potential buyers a bit complicated.

In order for the product to operate normally, the most important thing is to bring commercial benefits. What technical parameters should you pay attention to first? After all, LED screens are the best tool for any business to successfully operate. And to a large extent depends on the successful purchase from the owner of the technology or the unsuccessful purchase on the contrary.

What should you pay attention to

Models suitable for outdoor installation;
And the model only suitable for indoor installation.
But in this article, we will only consider the choice of street models.

Outdoor LED Sign

Street use refers to the transmission (broadcast) of advertisements or information useful to settlement residents at any time of the day and in any weather.

In such a model, everything is considered to the smallest details! Bright day, dusk, or darkness at night will not affect the quality of the broadcast. Brightness, resolution, the distance between pixels (the so-called pitch)-everything allows the screen to display video or text blocks without problems.

Ideally, street screens should require minimal maintenance and additional adjustments.

Main settings:

Resolution-The minimum resolution we recommend is 256 x 192 pixels;
Protect each module from weather conditions and dust-IP65;
The distance between pixels-from 3 to 25 mm;
Brightness-5,000 to 10,000 Cd meters per square meter (the longer the screen is in the sun, the brighter it should be);
Operating temperature range-from –40 to +85 degrees.

A good Outdoor LED Sign can be installed in any climatic zone-whether it is in a cold area or in a hot southern area. It reliably prevents moisture, dust and mechanical damage.

When producing diodes for this type of model, RGB technology is used-diodes of different colors are collected in groups. By mixing the three basic colors (blue, green, and red), you can easily obtain the entire spectrum required for high-quality information display.

The importance of price when choosing

The cost of the screen is one of the main characteristics of high-quality equipment.

Reliable manufacturers sell their products at appropriate prices, which largely depends on the cost of high-quality components and parts.

Manufacturers buy diodes in large quantities, excluding the installation of LEDs of different tones (different batches). And there is always product inventory in the warehouse-customers will receive orders in the near future. In addition, reliable technical support is provided during the operation of the equipment.

Obviously, such a product costs more than a screen assembled “kneeling on the ground” without meeting the basic technical requirements. Inferior screens can be easily identified by vague instructions, and buyers cannot find out the real technical parameters and manufacturing quality from them

Application of LED Outdoor LED Sign

LED screens can be used for advertising, information and entertainment purposes in various facilities:

On the exterior walls of residential buildings, shopping centers, office centers, and office buildings;
At a busy intersection
In parks and other public places;
In stadiums and stadiums;
Waiting at the open concert venue.

Features of LED Outdoor LED Sign

Viewing angle (horizontal/vertical)-140°/140°;
SMD or DIP LED;
Peak brightness-8,000 cd / m2 or higher;
Pixel pitch-starting at 2.5 mm;
Protection level-IP65-67;
Operating temperature range-from -45°С to +70°С;
The design life of the screen exceeds 11 years.

Outdoor LED Sign production stage

In the first stage, the components used to assemble the screen are selected. We use our own production equipment and leading manufacturers in Russia and the world. For outdoor LED screens, you need:

The main manufacturers of these products are Epistar, Nichia, Cree, Qiangli, and National Star.
Electronic Component
We use products of our own production and the world’s leading brands.
A printed circuit board
Created according to the terms of reference of our engineers.
Enclosure/cabinet
Our company has production lines for the production of ACP and steel LED cabinets.
Control System
The controller is manufactured and sold by Novastar, Dbstar and HuiduHD.
power supply
To manufacture LED screens for street use, Meanwell, G-Energy, and LEDimpress blocks are used.
Consumables
To assemble the screen, you need connectors, wires, screws, etc.

The second stage is the manufacture of modules:

LED pixels and microprocessor are squeezed on the board;
The finished board is installed in the module shell or guide rail;
The modules are being assembled and sealed;The device was tested for several hours at 100% brightness against a white background.

The third stage is the final assembly of the Outdoor LED Sign, including:

The LED module is installed in the chassis (when cabinet assembly is selected);
Install power supply and controller, wiring;
Monitoring settings and testing;
Delivery and installation.

How to calculate the cost of Outdoor LED Sign

The main manufacturers of these products are Epistar, Nichia, Cree, Qiangli, and National Star.
Choose video screen type
The choice will depend on the specific situation of the installation location, installation method, type of service (front or back) and the
distance to the audience. GT Light experts will help you choose the best type and configuration of outdoor video equipment.
Determine the monitor size
If you know the exact size of the screen, you just need to notify our manager. Experts will also help you choose an outdoor ice screen while
considering the best aspect ratio.
Specify pixel pitch
This indicator shows the distance between the nearest LEDs. The quality of the picture directly depends on the selected steps. We can
provide you with a spacing of 2.5 mm, but we recommend that you pay attention to the distance between the screen and the audience. If
the display is placed at a relatively high distance and a relatively high height, the 8-10 mm step is more advantageous in terms of price
and quality.
