RECOMME DED WAR I GS, CAUTIO S,

RWAR I G:“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.
WAR I G:The arc-tube of metal halide lamps are designed to
operate under high pressure and at temperatures up to 1000º C
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, THERE IS A RISK OF PERSO AL
IJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, BUR S A D FIRE.
These lamps are designed to retain all the glass
particles should an arc tube rupture occur.The following
operating instructions are recommended to minimize
these occurrences.
RELAMP FIXTURES AT OR BEFORETHE E D OF
RATED 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 25 nCi of Kr-85 and is distributed
by Philips Lighting Company, a division of Philips Electronics
orth America Corporation, Somerset, ew Jersey, 08875.
CAUTIO :TO REDUCETHE RIS OF PERSONAL INJURY,
PROPERTY DAMAGE, BURNS AND FIRE RESULTING FROM AN
ARC-TUBE RUPTURE THE FOLLOWING LAMP OPERATI G
I STRUCTIO S MUST BE FOLLOWED:
LAMP OPERATI G I STRUCTIO S:
1) RELAMP FIXTURES AT OR BEFORETHE 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) Before lamp installation/replacement, shut power off and allow
lamp and fixture to cool to avoid electrical shock and potential
burn hazards.
3) 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 manufacturers
electrical data.
4) Periodically inspect the outer envelope. Replace any lamps that
show scratches, cracks or damage.
5) If a lamp bulb support is used, be sure to insulate the support
electrically to avoid possible decomposition of the bulb glass.
6) Protect lamp base, socket and wiring against moisture, corrosive
atmospheres and excessive heat.
7) 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.
8) Lamps may require 10 to 20 minutes to re-light if there is a
power interruption.
9) Take care in handling and disposing of lamps. If an arc tube is
broken, avoid skin contact with any of the contents or fragments.
1) Rated average life is the life obtained, on the average, from large representative groups of lamps in laboratory tests under controlled
conditions at 10 or more operating hours per start. It is based on survival of at least 50% of the lamps and allows for individual lamps
or groups of lamps to vary considerably from the average.
2) Approximate lumen values listed are for vertical or horizontal operation of lamp, respectively, as indicated in chart.
3) Approximate lumen output at 40% of lamp rated average life.
4) Not for use in compact “wall pack” or “flood light” type fixtures. Maximum temperature limit of outer bulb may be exceeded in these
applications and can lead to premature lamp failure.
V=Vertical operation ± 15º. Do not operate in horizontal position.
HOR = Horizontal operation ± 15º. Do not operate in a vertical position.
