Description
The lumen maintenance factor used to determine the mean lumen value was 95%. This is the lamp lumen maintenance factor at 6000 hours,
40% of 15,000 hours. It was used to allow comparison to standard OCTRON® lamps with an average rated life of 15000 hours. The lamp
lumen maintenance factor at 40% of the 18,000 hour average rated life of this lamp, 7200 hours, would be 94%.
The lumen maintenance factor used to determine the mean lumens value was 92%, measured at 40% of the average rated life, 15,000 hours.
The lumen maintenance factor at 4,000-4,800 hours (for comparison to F96T12 HO and F96T12 Slimline instant start lamps) is 93%.
Approximate length of OCTRON CURVALUME lamps is measured from base face to outside of glass bend.
For optimum performance OCTRON CURVALUME 1 5/8 inch leg spacing lamps in the 3000K, 3500K and 4100K color temperatures are now
available only in the 82CRI version (800 series). These lamps are made to the same color standards and may be used in combination with
other SYLVANIA OCTRON lamps to meet the needs of lighting installations where T8 lamps are used.
The 30,000 hour average rated of the OCTRON
QUICKTRONIC
lamp: typically 24,000 hours for rapid or programmed rapid start operation and 18,000 hours for instant start operation at 3 hours per start.
The lamp lumen maintenance factor used to determine the mean lumen value was 95%. This is the lamp lumen maintenance factor at 8,000
hours, 40% of 20,000 hours. It was used to allow comparison to standard OCTRON lamps with an average rated life of 20,000 hours.
The lamp lumen maintenance factor at 40% of 24,000 hours, 9600 hours, would be 94%; the lamp lumen maintenance factor at 40% of
30,000 hours, 12000 hours, would be 93%.
Recommended only for use on 2-lamp, 30 watt rapid-start high power factor lead, indoor ballasts that meet ANSI standards. Not intended
for use: (1) at lamp ambient temperatures below 60 degrees F or in drafty locations, (2) on low power factor ballasts, (3) reduced
current/reduced light output ballasts, (4) dimming ballasts, or (5) on inverter operated emergency lighting systems unless any of the above
equipment is specifically listed for use with 25 watt lamps.
Average rated life is measured at 3 hours per start on 2-lamp, rapid start magnetic ballasts per IES recommended practice. Lamp life on sin-
gle-lamp rapid start ballasts may be reduced.
Average life rating at 12 hours operation per start is 28,800 hours.
Recommended for use on one or two lamp 40 watt rapid start, high power factor, lead, indoor ballasts that meet ANSI standards. Not intend-
ed for use: (1) at lamp ambient temperatures below 60 degrees F or in drafty locations, (2) on low power factor ballasts, (3) reduced cur-
rent/reduced light output ballasts, (4) dimming ballasts, or (5) on inverter operated emergency lighting systems unless any of the above
equipment is specifically listed for use with 34 watt lamps.
The "RS" designation has been eliminated to simplify the ordering abbreviation.
40W Rapid Start Lamps may be used in starter operated fixtures designed for 40W preheat lamps. Life rating for preheat service is approxi-
mately 15,000 hours average.
Rating for OSRAM SYLVANIA Circline lamps are based on operation in Rapid Start circuits. They will also operate on preheat circuits.
Caution: DULUX
ed switches. In outdoor applications, use only in enclosed fixtures to avoid exposure to weather. Use only on 120V, 60 Hz circuits.
Recommended for use on one or two lamp high power factor, lead, 8-foot lamp, high output, indoor ballasts that meet ANSI standards. Not
intended for use: (1) at lamp ambient temperatures below 60 degrees F or in drafty locations, (2) on low power factor ballasts, (3) reduced
current/reduced light output ballasts, (4) dimming ballasts, or (5) on inverter operated emergency lighting systems unless any of the above
equipment is specifically listed for use with 95 watt lamps.
Average life rating at 12 hours operation per start is 18,000 hours.
May be operated at 100 watts (1000MA) same as F84T12/HO.
Labeled for cold temperature (below 60 degrees F) operation only per EPACT.
Average life rating at 12 hours operation per start is 15,000 hours.
Low temperature performance rated at 35 degrees F ambient.
Low temperature performance rated at 35 degrees F ambient.
Cool White lamp with 30 degree aperture (Power Beam).
Recommended for use on 2-lamp high power factor, lead, 8-foot lamp, very high output, indoor ballasts that meet ANSI standards. Not
intended for use: (1) at lamp ambient temperatures below 60 degrees F or in drafty locations, (2) on low power factor ballasts, (3) reduced
current/reduced light output ballasts, (4) dimming ballasts, or (5) on inverter operated emergency lighting systems unless equipment is
specifically listed for use with 195 watt lamps.
Recommended for use on one or two lamp high power factor, lead, instant-start, indoor ballasts that meet ANSI standards. Not intended for
use: (1) at lamp ambient temperatures below 60 degrees F or in drafty locations, (2) on low power factor ballasts, (3) reduced
current/reduced light output ballasts, (4) dimming ballasts, or (5) on inverter operated emergency lighting systems unless any of the above
equipment is specifically listed for use with 32 watt or 60 watt lamps.
