MasterColor®Ceramic Metal Halide 22 Watt 3000 Tubular Single-Ended T6 Lamps with FadeBlock™UV Filtering
Electrical Data (Subject to change without notice)
1) Measured at 100 hours of life in vertical position.
2) Measured at rated lamp watts on a linear reactor. LPW does not include ballast losses.
3) Measured with the lamp operating at rated watts.
INSTALLATION INFO MATION
MasterColor®Metal Halide T-6 lamps must be used in combination with appropriate ballast and ignitor or suitable full electronic ballast. For satisfactory operation
of the lamp, the supply voltage should not fluctuate more than ±5% from the rated voltage of the ballast (±10% for electronic ballast).
Warnings, Cautions and Operating Instructions
“WA NING: These lamps can cause serious skin burn and eye inflammation
from short wave ultraviolet radiation if outer envelope of the lamp is broken or
punctured. Do not use where people will remain for more than a few minutes unless
adequate shielding or other safety precautions are used. Certain lamps that will
automatically extinguish when the outer envelope is broken or punctured are
commercially available." This lamp complies with FDA radiation performance
standard 21 CFR subchapter J. (USA:21CFR 1040.30 Canada:SOR/DORS/80-381)
If the outer bulb is broken or punctured, turn off at once and replace
the lamp to avoid possible injury from hazardous short wave ultraviolet
radiation. Do not scratch the outer bulb or subject it to pressure as this
could cause the outer bulb to crack or shatter.A partial vacuum in the
outer bulb may cause glass to fly if the envelope is struck.
WA NING: The arc-tube of metal halide lamps are designed to operate under
high pressure and at temperatures up to 1000ºC and can unexpectedly rupture due
to internal or external factors such as a ballast failure or misapplication. If the
arc-tube ruptures for any reason, the outer bulb may break and pieces of extremely
hot glass might be discharged into the surrounding environment. If such a rupture
were to happen, THE E IS A ISK OF PE SONAL INJU Y, P OPE TY
DAMAGE, BU NS AND FI E.
Certain lamps that will retain all the glass particles should inner arc-tube
rupture occur are commercially available from Philips Lighting Company.
ELAMP FIXTU ES AT O BEFO ETHE END OF ATED LIFE.
Allowing lamps to operate until they fail is not advised and may increase
the possibility of inner arc tube rupture.
This lamp contains an arc tube with a filling gas containing less than
10 nCi of Kr-85 and is distributed by Philips Lighting Company, a division
of Philips Electronics North America Corporation, Somerset,
New Jersey, 08875.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RIS OF PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY
DAMAGE, BURNS AND FIRE RESULTING FROM AN ARC-TUBE RUPTURETHE
FOLLOWING LAMP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED.
Lamp Operating Instructions:
1) RELAMP FIXTURES AT OR BEFORE THE END OF RATED LIFE.Allowing lamps
to operate until they fail is not advised and may increase the possibility of inner
arc tube rupture.
2) Use only in fully enclosed fixtures capable of withstanding particles of glass having
temperatures up to 1000º C. Lens/diffuser material must be heat resistant. Consult
fixture manufacturer regarding the suitability of the fixture for this lamp.
3) Do not operate a fixture with a missing or broken lens/diffuser.
4) Operate lamp only within specified limits of operating position.
5) Before lamp installation/replacement, shut power off and allow lamp and fixture to
cool to avoid electrical shock and potential burn hazards.
6) Use only auxiliary equipment meeting Philips and/or ANSI standards. Use within
voltage limits recommended by ballast manufacturer.
A. Operate lamp only within specified limits of operation.
B. For total supply load refer to ballast manufacturer’s electrical data.
C. Operate CDM-T6 (G12 base) lamps only on thermally protected ballasts.
D. Operate CDM-TC lamps (G8.5 base), CDM-T6 Elite lamps, and CDM-T6
39W/842 lamps only on thermally protected electronic ballasts.
7) Periodically inspect the outer envelope. Replace any lamps that show scratches,
cracks or damage.
8)
If a lamp bulb support is used, be sure to insulate the support electrically to avoid
possible decomposition of the bulb glass.
9) Protect lamp base, socket and wiring against moisture, corrosive atmospheres and
excessive heat.
10) Time should be allowed for lamps to stabilize in color when turned on for the first
time.This may require several hours of operation, with more than one start. Lamp
color is also subject to change under conditions of excess vibration or shock and
color appearance may vary between individual lamps.
11) Lamps may require 4 to 8 minutes to re-light if there is a power interruption.
12) Take care in handling and disposing of lamps. If an arc tube is broken, avoid skin
contact with any of the contents or fragments.
