Abstract: A radiation monitor for a lighting device, and operating methods and systems therefor are provided. In one example, a radiation monitor may include a first sensor receiving radiation output directly from a light-emitting element of the lighting device and radiation output from external sources; and a second sensor receiving the radiation output from the external sources without receiving the radiation output directly from the light-emitting element of the lighting device. The radiation monitor may determine an intensity of the radiation output directly from the light-emitting element based on a difference in the output signals from the first sensor and the second sensor.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a lighting module and related components for efficiently directing dissipated heat and/or heated air away from the lighting module. Deflectors are often used to funnel heat away from solid-state light emitters and channel airflow away from a curing surface, but the risk of constrained airflow may negatively affect emitter output as well as disturb the curing process of a workpiece emitted light is directed towards. To efficiently remove heat as well as not disturb the curing process or shape of the lighting module, louvered vents are provided that extend into an interior of a housing of the lighting module for guiding heated air in a deflecting direction away from the emitted light direction.

Abstract: A lighting module has an array of light-emitting elements that is electrically coupled to a heat sink and a housing having a heat exit. The array of light-emitting elements is positioned in the housing and the heat sink is positioned to dissipate heat generated within the housing so that the heat is expelled through the heat exit. A deflector is secured to the housing and is positioned to extend over some portion of the heat exit. The deflector guides heat away from the housing in a direction. In some configurations, the deflector guides heat away from the housing in a direction that is opposite the direction in which the array of light-emitting elements emit light. Also, some lighting modules have multiple heat exits and may have multiple deflectors extending over a portion of the respective heat exits.
