Por qué su sistema de iluminación exterior inteligente necesita la certificación CB: información de un fabricante de fotocélulas con más de 20 años de experiencia
Introducir
In today’s era of smart cities and globally connected infrastructure, intelligent outdoor lighting is no longer optional — it’s expected. For companies working with photocell sensors, Zhaga-compatible luminaires, or NEMA 7-pin sockets, navigating international markets comes with one big challenge: compliance.
So how can your outdoor lighting control system stand out while meeting international safety standards?
That’s where CB Certification comes in. This global compliance mark not only ensures safety but unlocks international market access with fewer regulatory roadblocks. Let’s explore the why, how, and what of CB Certification — and why Longjoin, a leading Chinese photocell manufacturer, is investing in it.
What is CB Certification, and Why Does It Matter?
Feeling confused about CB Certification and how it affects your photocell products? You’re not alone. Many lighting brands are unsure how this certification fits into their global expansion.
CB Certification is part of the IECEE CB Scheme, governed by the Comisión Electrotécnica Internacional (CEI). It allows your photocell, control units, or Zhaga sockets to gain easier access to over 50 global markets without undergoing redundant testing.
Longjoin’s Zhaga-compatible photocell assemblies (such as the JL-700 y JL-770) now carry the CB mark, proving that they comply with bn bv, a key safety standard for electrical connectors.
This certification, issued by DEKRA Netherlands, signals international buyers that your products are safe, high quality, and globally compliant.
Tipo de certificación | Governing Body | Countries Accepted |
CB Scheme | IECEE (IEC) | 50+ Countries |
Ref Standard | IEC 61984:2008 | Seguridad eléctrica |
Issuer | DEKRA B.V. | Países Bajos |
Why Did Longjoin Apply for CB Certification?
Not sure why a Chinese photocell street light supplier would prioritize a global compliance mark?
Here’s the reason: Smart lighting is global. From California to Copenhagen, cities demand modular and safe street lighting systems.
En Unión larga, we’ve supplied photocell control devices for over 20 years. Our goal has always been to help our clients build safer, more reliable lighting systems.
Our JL Series (like JL-700, JL-770, JL-701) is tested to operate at 30V DC, 1.5A, in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 70°C. With CB Certification, we make it easier for lighting system integrators and OEMs to gain quick approvals in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and South America.
Producto | Operating Voltage | Temperature Range | Proceso de dar un título |
JL-700 | 30V DC | -40°C to 70°C | CB, UL, CE |
JL-770 | 30V DC | -40°C to 70°C | CB, UL |
What Does the CB Testing Process Check For?
Worried that your product may not meet the technical or mechanical safety requirements?
These tests give lighting system designers real confidence. They prove photocell street light sensors won’t fail in harsh weather or high-traffic settings.
For example, Longjoin’s test report (4920181.50) shows that our products meet all the necessary criteria:
- Contact performance: Tests current capacity and electrical continuity
- Durabilidad: Evaluates wear over thousands of plug/unplug cycles
- Thermal testing: Ensures resistance to overheating or external cold
- Short-circuit protection: Prevents hazardous failures
Test Category | Objetivo | Longjoin Compliance |
Electrical Integrity | Reliable contact & voltage load | Aprobado |
Mechanical Durability | Plug/unplug cycles | Aprobado |
Estabilidad térmica | Extreme heat/cold simulation | Aprobado |
Safety Performance | Short circuit protection | Aprobado |
These tests help reassure lighting system designers that photocell street lighting sensors won’t fail when deployed in harsh weather or high-traffic environments.
How Does CB Certification Help You Expand Globally?
Trying to sell your lighting system in multiple countries? Testing in each country separately can be slow and costly.
CB Certification lets you test once and sell globally. It is accepted by certification bodies in regions like:
- North America (e.g., UL in the USA)
- Europe (e.g., CE)
- Asia (e.g., PSE in Japan, CCC in China)
- Australia (e.g., SAA)
You save time. You cut costs. You launch faster now.
Also, certified photoelectric sensors from CB-recognized manufacturers like Longjoin help buyers trust your brand.
Región | Local Standard | Accepted CB Certificate? |
EE.UU | UL | Sí |
EU | CE | Sí |
Australia | SAA | Sí |
Japan | PSE | Sí |
