1000W-1200W IP67 Marine LED Fish Attracting Light | Hainan Lingao Fishing Vessel Renovation Case

Project Overview 

Project Name: Hainan Lingao Offshore Fishing Vessel LED Fish-Attracting Lighting Renovation Project

Project Location: Lingao County, Hainan Province, China (Typical offshore squid fishing base)

End Client: Local professional offshore fishing fleet operator

Applied Product: HRLUX 1000W-1200W High Power IP67 Waterproof Marine LED Fish Attracting Light

Applicable Scenario: All-night offshore squid and phototactic fish fishing operations

Project Scale: 8 fishing boats fully upgraded and renovated

Project Cycle: 12 working days (scheme confirmation, product delivery, port installation and sea trial acceptance)

 

Core Project Requirements 

Lingao offshore fishery adopts long-distance all-night fishing mode. The original traditional metal halide fishing lights have high comprehensive operating costs and poor marine environmental adaptability. The client put forward three core renovation goals: energy saving and consumption reduction, stable sea adaptability, and improved fishing attraction efficiency.

1. Replace high-power metal halide lamps to reduce ship generator load, cut fuel consumption, and lower single-voyage operating costs.

2. Adopt IP67 high-level waterproof and salt-fog corrosion resistance to adapt to high-humidity and high-salt offshore working environment, reducing lamp damage rate.

3. Optimize sea surface light field uniformity, stabilize long-term light output, and enhance the trapping effect on squid and other phototactic fish.

4. Reduce frequent high-risk maintenance operations at sea and improve the overall operational safety of fishing vessels.

5. Compatible with original ship brackets, minimize hull modification and shorten port downtime.

 

Project Pain Points & On-site Challenges 

Before the renovation, the fishing fleet faced many industry pain points that plagued long-term operations:

1. Excessive energy consumption and high fuel cost: Traditional 1000W+ metal halide lamps have low light efficiency and high power load. Long-time full-load operation of the generator leads to excessive fuel consumption, which accounts for more than 35% of the total fishing cost.

2. Poor salt corrosion resistance and high failure rate: Ordinary fishing lights lack professional marine anti-corrosion treatment. Salt spray and seawater splashing easily cause water ingress, short circuit and lamp burnout, with an annual failure rate as high as 45%.

3. Slow startup and severe light decay: Metal halide lamps require 3-5 minutes of preheating to reach rated brightness. Long-term sea vibration and high temperature accelerate light decay, resulting in weakened fish-attracting effect in the middle and late stages of fishing.

4. High maintenance risk at sea: Damaged lamps need manual replacement on rolling sea decks, which has high operational safety hazards.

5. Unreasonable light field coverage: Traditional light sources have scattered light beams, serious light loss, insufficient effective sea surface illumination, and limited fish trapping range.

 

Customized Marine Lighting Solution

1. Product Selection & Core Parameters 

Aiming at the high salt, high humidity and all-night continuous operation characteristics of Lingao offshore fishery, HRLUX technical team matched 1200W high-power IP67 fully sealed marine professional fish-attracting lights to replace traditional metal halide equipment.

 

2.On-site Layout Strategy 

According to the deck length and tonnage characteristics of Lingao local fishing boats, the scheme adopts bilateral gunwale array uniform layout. The lamps are installed at a fixed height on both sides of the hull to form a large-area uniform high-brightness light field on the sea surface, expanding the active trapping range of phototactic fish. All installations reuse original ship brackets to achieve zero modification of the hull structure.

3. Standard Implementation Process 

1. On-site survey: Collect ship electrical parameters, bracket size and deck layout in Lingao fishing port.

2. Custom layout design: Match lamp quantity and installation angle according to fishing boat tonnage.

3. Pre-delivery test: Strict salt spray, waterproof and aging tests for all marine lamps.

4. Port installation & wiring: Complete fixed installation and waterproof sealing construction.

5. Power-on debugging: Adjust light projection angle to optimize sea surface light field coverage.

6. Sea trial tracking: Verify fishing effect and equipment stability in actual offshore operation.

 

Core Product Advantages 

1. 38% High Energy Saving: High-efficiency LED light source replaces traditional high-power metal halide lamps, effectively reducing generator load and cutting single-voyage fuel consumption.

2. Genuine IP67 Marine Grade Protection: Fully integrated sealed structure with professional salt-fog anti-corrosion coating, resisting seawater splashing and long-term salt erosion, suitable for harsh offshore environments.

3. Instant Bright & Stable Output: No preheating delay, instant full brightness, adapting to flexible switching operations at sea; ultra-low light decay ensures stable fish-attracting effect throughout the whole fishing period.

4. Professional Fish-Attracting Optical Design: Custom optical lens controls light beam accurately, avoid light scattering loss, form high-uniformity sea surface light field, and improve squid trapping efficiency.

5. Super Wide Voltage Adaptation: AC90-305V wide voltage design, stable operation under frequent voltage fluctuation of ship generators.

6. Ultra-Long Service Life & Low Maintenance: L70 lifespan up to 50000 hours, annual failure rate reduced from 45% to 5%, greatly reducing sea maintenance risks and labor costs.

 

Project Actual Benefits & Data Verification 

After 3 months of continuous offshore sea trials in Lingao fishing ground, the project achieved significant measurable economic and operational improvements:

1. Energy-saving benefit: Single-vessel lighting power consumption reduced by 38%, average monthly fuel cost saved by $420+.

2. Maintenance benefit: Annual lamp failure maintenance frequency reduced by 88%, eliminating high-risk deck replacement work in bad sea conditions.

3. Fishing efficiency improvement: Uniform and stable light field expands fish gathering range, and the overall catch of squid and phototactic fish increased by 12-18%.

4. Stable sea adaptability: Zero water ingress and zero corrosion failure after multiple storms and high salt spray tests.

 

Customer Testimonial 

“Our fleet has been operating in Lingao offshore waters all year round. Traditional metal halide lights are too power-consuming and easy to burn out by salt corrosion. After switching to HRLUX 1200W marine LED fish lights, the fuel cost is significantly reduced, the lights are always bright and stable during all-night fishing, and the squid catch is obviously improved. The product quality and after-sales guidance are very reliable.”

FAQ 

Q1: Why are LED fish lights more suitable for Hainan offshore fishing than traditional metal halide lights?

A1: Hainan offshore area has high salt spray and high humidity. HRLUX IP67 LED fish lights adopt full-sealed anti-corrosion structure, with 38% lower power consumption, 6 times longer service life and 88% lower maintenance frequency than traditional metal halide lamps, and the light field is more uniform for fish trapping.

Q2: Does the 1200W marine fish light need to modify the original ship bracket?

A2: No large-scale modification is required. The product is compatible with most standard ship lamp brackets. It can be directly installed and reused, effectively shortening port renovation cycle and reducing refit cost.

Q3: What color temperature is suitable for offshore squid fishing?

A3: This HRLUX marine fish light adopts professional phototactic fish dedicated color temperature, which conforms to the phototactic habit of squid and pelagic fish. It can form a strong and stable light field on the sea surface to improve gathering efficiency.

Q4: Can the IP67 lamp work continuously in heavy sea spray?

A4: Yes. The IP67 fully sealed structure supports long-term resistance to seawater splashing and salt spray erosion. It is suitable for all-weather offshore fishing operations, but long-term immersion in seawater is not allowed.

Q5: What is the service life advantage of LED fishing lights?

A5: The L70 service life reaches 50000 hours, which is 6 times that of traditional metal halide lamps. It greatly reduces the annual replacement frequency and sea maintenance risks of fishing boats.
