As an important part of modern urban outdoor lighting, solar wall lights are widely popular because of their environmental protection, energy saving, and convenient installation and maintenance characteristics. However, after long-term exposure to outdoor environments, dust, dirt and other impurities are easily accumulated on the surface and inside of solar wall lights. This not only affects its appearance, but more importantly, it will reduce the photoelectric conversion efficiency and shorten its service life. Therefore, it is particularly important to clean the solar wall lights regularly to ensure their efficient operation and extend their service life.
Preparation before cleaning
Power off safety
Before any cleaning work, the power supply of the solar wall lights must be disconnected first to prevent electric shock accidents. For solar wall lights equipped with intelligent control systems, the control system must also be turned off to ensure safety during the cleaning process.
Choose the right cleaning tools
The choice of cleaning tools is crucial. It is recommended to use a soft and lint-free rag or sponge with a mild detergent. Avoid using tools such as hard brushes or steel wool that may scratch the surface of the lamp. For stains that are difficult to remove, you can wipe them with diluted vinegar or alcohol, but be sure to ensure that the detergent used does not corrode the surface of the lamp.
Check the weather conditions
Cleaning should be done in sunny and dry weather. Avoid cleaning in rainy days or in high humidity to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the lamp and causing short circuits or other damage.
Cleaning the surface of the lamp
Remove dust
First, use a dry cloth or vacuum cleaner to gently remove dust from the surface of the lamp. For areas with more dust, such as lamp poles and lamp arms, you can pat or use a soft brush to clean them to ensure that the surface is clean.
Wipe the surface
Wring out the wet rag or sponge gently, dip it in an appropriate amount of detergent, and gently wipe the surface of the lamp in the same direction. Pay attention to moderate force to avoid excessive force that may cause scratches or deformation on the surface. For lamps made of materials such as chrome plating and stainless steel, it is recommended to use a neutral detergent to clean them to prevent corrosion.
Clean the lampshade
The lampshade is an important part of the solar wall lamp, and its cleanliness directly affects the lighting effect. For transparent or translucent lampshades, wipe gently with a damp cloth, and avoid using hard materials or sharp tools to avoid scratching the surface of the lampshade. For lampshades with patterns or textures, special attention should be paid to cleaning details to ensure that no stains remain.
Cleaning the inside of the lamp
Disassembly and inspection
Before cleaning the inside of the lamp, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect all wires. Then, carefully disassemble the lampshade, bulb and other parts according to the design of the lamp. During the disassembly process, care should be taken to protect the internal electronic components and circuits to avoid damage.
Cleaning the circuit board and battery
Use a soft dry cloth to gently wipe the dust and dirt on the circuit board, and avoid direct contact with the circuit board with a wet cloth or detergent. For dust and impurities in the battery compartment, use a dry cloth to clean it. At the same time, check whether the battery connection wires and contact points are loose or corroded. If problems are found, the battery should be replaced or the connection wires repaired in time.
