Hella’s pioneering lighting & electronic solutions

At the world's largest trade fair for green technology, IFAT, which is being held in Munich from May 5-9, 2014, Hella, the international automotive supplier, is showcasing a treasure trove of innovative lighting and electronic solutions. On display are products dealing with front and rear lighting, rotating beacons and also worklights. But the special focus is on cutting-edge solutions in LED technology. This kind of technology is so far ahead of the curve not only because of its powerful light output and low energy consumption but also because its guaranteed long service life boasts high levels of reliability, said a company statement.

This exhibition also sees Hella, for the first time, presenting a new full LED combination rear lamp designed for towing vehicles and trailers. All the lighting functions of this product (tail light, stop light, direction indicator, rear fog lamp and also the back-up light) have been solely equipped with LED technology. The tail light, in combination with the reflex reflector, is generated by means of a ground-breaking flat LED light guide. And this light guide succeeds in producing illumination which is especially homogeneous. The result is that the tail light function, with its surface area of around 145 square cm, is particularly well lit up and very visible in the dark, ensuring more safety on the road when driving in night-time traffic. The exceptionally flat light (40 millimeters) with its impact-resistant lens, is also extremely resistant to all manner of vibrations. It can be mounted either horizontally or vertically, from the front by using two screws or from behind by means of mounting bolts. The new full LED combination rear lamp from Hella is available in a variety of frame colours from June 2014 onwards.
