5-Step COB Selection Process
Step 1: Define Viewing Distance Calculate optimal pixel pitch: minimum viewing distance = pixel pitch x 1.5. For control rooms with 1.5m viewing, choose P1.0 or finer. |
Step 2: Determine Operating Hours For 24/7 operation, COB’s low power consumption and excellent heat dissipation provide significant long-term cost savings and reliability. |
Step 3: Assess Environmental Factors COB’s protection against impact and moisture makes it ideal for high-traffic areas, humid environments, or locations requiring frequent cleaning. |
Step 4: Calculate Total Cost of Ownership While COB has higher initial cost, factor in lower power consumption, reduced maintenance, and longer lifespan. TCO often favors COB within 3-5 years. |
Step 5: Verify Supplier Capabilities Ensure supplier provides pre-shipment testing, installation support, and long-term warranty. HC Industry offers 100% pre-shipment testing and lifetime software updates. |
