How to Get the CHZ Lighting Datasheet: 13+ Years of OEM Customization Explained
From 20W to 1,500W, 2200K to 6500K, no MOQ - how project engineers, distributors, and government buyers get a complete, testable LED lighting datasheet from a single 13-year Chinese OEM partner.
Why "Just Send Me a Quote" Is No Longer Enough
Global LED lighting procurement has never been more complex. Marketing brochures flood every inbox, product images look interchangeable, and spec sheets from different suppliers are formatted in incompatible ways. The global LED lighting market is projected to grow from $67.4 billion in 2025 to $104.7 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of approximately 9.2% (Grand View Research, 2025) - and within that growth, the share of OEM and ODM customization has expanded significantly as more buyers demand market-specific wattage, color temperatures, beam patterns, and certifications.
A professional datasheet is the single most important document in this procurement process. It is the contractual reference that translates marketing claims into testable, comparable, and project-defensible technical parameters. This guide explains exactly what a professional LED lighting datasheet contains, how to request one from CHZ Lighting, and what 13+ years of OEM customization looks like in practice - from inquiry to mass production.
01Why LED Product Datasheets Matter in B2B Procurement
A datasheet is not a marketing brochure. A marketing brochure tells you a luminaire is "high-performance" and "energy-efficient." A datasheet tells you it delivers 160 lumens per watt, 5,700K color temperature, IP66 ingress protection, 100,000-hour L70 lifetime, and 10kV surge protection - each independently verified through standardized testing protocols. That distinction is the difference between a marketing claim and an engineering specification.
Here are five reasons why datasheets are indispensable in B2B lighting procurement:
1. Technical Parameter Verification
Key performance metrics - luminous efficacy, color rendering index (CRI), ingress protection (IP) ratings - must be derived from standardized testing such as IES LM-79 (photometric), IES LM-80 (lumen maintenance), and IES TM-21 (lifetime projection). A datasheet that omits the test standard, the test date, or the testing laboratory is not a datasheet - it is an advertisement.
2. Project Compliance
Certification information directly determines whether a product can legally enter and remain in your target market. ENEC marks are required across European economies, ETL for North America, SAA for Australia, and CCC for mainland China. Procurement officers who fail to verify certification scope before issuing a purchase order routinely face shipment holds at destination ports.
3. Luminaire Layout Design Basis
IES photometric distribution files - the standardized .ies format - are the foundation of lighting simulation in DIALux and AGi32. Without accurate IES data tied to a verifiable test report, your photometric layout is built on assumptions. Datasheets that include the IES file as a downloadable attachment eliminate that risk.
4. Supplier Comparison Baseline
Apples-to-apples comparison is only possible when suppliers report parameters within the same framework. A datasheet structured around standardized metrics - luminaire lumens (not lamp lumens), TM-21 projected L70 lifetime, IP66 per IEC 60529, surge per IEC 61000-4-5 - lets procurement teams compare competing bids on equal terms. The distinction matters more than most buyers realize: "lamp lumens" (raw LED chip output before optical losses) versus "luminaire lumens" (the actual light exiting the fixture) can differ by 15-25%.
5. Long-Term Maintenance Reference
Total cost of ownership extends far beyond the purchase price. L70 lifetime projections (based on IES TM-21 calculations from LM-80 data), thermal management specifications, surge protection ratings, and driver replaceability information all feed into 10-year maintenance budgets. Without those numbers, you cannot forecast the true cost of a lighting installation.
02What's Inside a CHZ Lighting Datasheet: Complete Parameter Breakdown
Every CHZ Lighting datasheet is structured around seven core parameter modules, designed to give engineers, consultants, and procurement teams the full technical picture without requiring a phone call or site visit.
Module 1 - Electrical Parameters
- Power range: 20W to 1,500W across the product portfolio
- Input voltage: 100-277VAC (universal), with extended options for 347VAC and 480VAC
- Power factor: ≥ 0.95 at full load
- Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): ≤ 20%
These parameters confirm grid compatibility and electrical efficiency across diverse installation environments, from standard commercial voltages to high-leg delta industrial feeds.
Module 2 - Optical Parameters
- Luminous efficacy: 130-180+ lm/W (luminaire-level)
- CCT: 2200K to 6500K, selectable
- CRI: ≥ 70 (standard) or ≥ 90 (high-fidelity option)
- Beam angles: 10 deg, 25 deg, 45 deg, 60 deg, 90 deg; NEMA Type I-V
- TLCI: > 90 (broadcast and film applications)
All optical data is derived from IES LM-79 goniophotometer testing, not LED chip specifications. The 130-180+ lm/W figure is the luminaire-level output after optical losses - the real number a photometric designer needs.
Module 3 - Protection Parameters
- IP rating: IP66 (dust-tight, protected against powerful water jets)
- IK rating: IK08 / IK09 (impact resistance per EN 62262)
- Surge protection: 10kV-20kV, compliant with IEC 61000-4-5
These ratings are validated through in-house testing at CHZ's TUV-witnessed laboratory, not self-declared. Procurement teams can cross-reference the test report number listed in the datasheet to confirm the rating.
Module 4 - Thermal Management
- Operating temperature: -40 deg C to +50 deg C
- Heat dissipation: Die-cast aluminum housing with honeycomb convection structure
- Junction temperature: < 85 deg C under rated conditions
Thermal design directly affects lumen maintenance and driver longevity. CHZ's honeycomb heat sink architecture maximizes convective surface area while minimizing fixture weight - critical for high-mast and streetlight installations.
Module 5 - Certifications and Test Standards
CHZ datasheets reference the following certifications and test standards:
- Management system: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001
- Product safety and performance: ENEC+, ENEC (Class I & II), CE, CB, ETL, TUV Mark, ROHS, SAA
- Photometric testing: IES LM-79, IES LM-80, IES TM-21
Certification scope and validity dates are listed explicitly so that compliance teams can cross-reference with target market requirements.
Module 6 - Photometric Data
Each datasheet is accompanied by downloadable IES photometric distribution files, NEMA beam classification, and light distribution curves. These files plug directly into DIALux and AGi32 simulation software - no reformatting required.
Module 7 - Mechanical Parameters
- Dimensional drawings (mm and inches)
- Net weight and gross weight
- Mounting options: pole top, side entry, bracket, trunnion
- Housing material: 6063 aviation-grade aluminum or die-cast aluminum alloy
- Surface treatment: anti-corrosion powder coating
03How to Request a CHZ Lighting Datasheet: Step-by-Step Guide
Requesting a CHZ Lighting datasheet is a straightforward process designed to move from initial inquiry to validated technical documentation in the shortest possible time. Six steps cover the journey from project requirement to OEM-ready specification.
Step 1: Define Your Project Requirements

Step 6: Proceed to OEM Customization (If Required)
For projects requiring branded packaging, custom color temperatures, integrated smart controls, or market-specific certifications, the OEM customization process begins immediately. There is no minimum order quantity at this stage - retailers, wholesalers, and engineering companies of all sizes receive the same level of support.
04CHZ Lighting OEM/ODM Customization: What Can Be Tailored
CHZ Lighting operates a full OEM and ODM service model. Whether you are a retailer ordering 50 units, a wholesaler building a private-label catalog, or an engineering company sourcing for a municipal project, the same seven dimensions of customization are available.
1. Power and Efficacy
The product portfolio spans 20W to 1,500W. Within each luminaire platform, power can be adjusted to match specific illuminance targets and energy budgets. System-level efficacy ranges from 130 to 180+ lm/W depending on the LED bin, driver configuration, and optical assembly. OEM clients can specify a tighter efficacy window (for example, ≥ 160 lm/W minimum) when the project requires a particular energy performance threshold.
2. Color Temperature and Color Rendering
CCT options range from warm 2200K to cool 6500K. CRI levels are available at ≥ 70 (outdoor general lighting), ≥ 80 (commercial), and ≥ 90 (high-fidelity applications). For projects with specific atmospheric requirements - heritage districts, hospitality zones, or architectural installations - the OEM team can dial in custom CCT/CRI combinations to match the visual brief.
3. Beam Angle and Light Distribution
Five standard beam angles - 10 deg, 25 deg, 45 deg, 60 deg, and 90 deg - cover NEMA Type I through Type V distribution patterns. Custom asymmetric distributions are available for projects requiring very narrow throw (port lighting, facade accent) or very wide coverage (parking lots, container yards). The lens library includes both PC and tempered glass options.
4. Housing Color and Surface Treatment
Standard finishes are available in RAL colors. Custom powder coating colors can be matched to project specifications or brand identity. Additional surface treatments include marine-grade anti-corrosion coating for coastal projects, anti-graffiti film for urban installations, and UV-resistant finishes for high-irradiance regions.
5. Smart Control Integration
CHZ luminaires can be integrated with the following control protocols and interfaces:
- DALI / DALI-2 (digital addressable lighting interface)
- 0-10V dimming
- DMX512 (entertainment and architectural dynamic lighting)
