Less heat from panel

Samsung LED LFDs are designed to be eco-friendly and easy to handle.

Pioneering technology provides two options for crisp, clear backlighting

Samsung manufactures two types of LED LFDs based on two distinct types of advanced backlighting technology:

•Edge-type technology. ME Series 65-inch and 75-inch LFDs have LED BLUs (backlight units) arranged around the edges of the screen, creating a thin profile.

•Direct-type technology. ED Series and 65-inch and 75-inch LFDs array slim direct-type LED BLUs across the entire back of the display panel.

Conserve energy with lower power use and cooler operating temperatures

Samsung LED LFDs offer several energy-reducing advan- tages over conventional projectors and CCFL displays. LED LFD technology:

•Requires less electricity to operate because of lower wattage needs

•Emits less carbon dioxide (CO2)

•Radiates less heat, reducing energy costs by up to 35 percent according to Samsung internal testing

•Eliminates bothersome fan noise

Both ME and ED LFDs also feature Auto Brightness Sensors. These sensors detect the intensity of ambient light and adjust the light emitted by LED BLUs to save energy without dimming the presentation.

Samsung LED LFDs have been certified for safety and energy efficiency by several agencies around the world, including ENERGY STAR® certification in the United States.

Operating at lower temperatures also helps increase the screens’ durability.

Less heat means lower room temperature so that cooling costs are reduced also.
