Lighting that improves more than your bottom line

LEDs are the clear choice when it comes to sustainability, corporate responsibility, and reduced environmental impact. Compared to fluorescent lamps, they contain no mercury or lead and significantly reduce emissions such as CO2.

The Affinium LED lighting system has received Philips Green Flagship certification. This certification guarantees excellent light quality. It is given to products that are proven to offer better environmental performance than their predecessors or competing products. Evaluations are based on energy consumption, hazardous substances, weight, and lifetime reliability.

Philips Lighting: committed to providing sustainable lighting solutions to enhance the lives of people today and in the future.

Philips Green Flagship products and

ISO 14001 certification

Environmental management systems like ISO 14001 focus on improving the environmental performance of your organization. One of its requirements is to evaluate relevant environmental parameters and define an environmental improvement program.

Philips Green Flagship products help you to:

•Reduce the amount of hazardous substances

•Save on the amount of CO2 emissions

•Reduce the amount of waste

So, by choosing Philips Green Flagship products, you can improve the environmental profile of your company and help meet your sustainability and ISO 14001 targets.

A practical example

Retrofitting all refrigerated display cases from fluorescent lamps to Affinium LED modules could have a huge environmental impact. In fact, retrofitting just one five- door case in a 24/7 store could save:

•75 trees annually

•5603 kWh per year — the energy consumption of nearly two households per year

•Plus two tons in CO2 emissions annually

With the introduction of Affinium LED lighting systems, Philips has cut energy consumption for refrigerated display lighting to an industry-leading low. Isn’t it time you

made the switch?

T10VHO, T12HO specifications

Philips T12HO and T10VHO are a line of high-output fluorescent lamps designed to deliver exceptional performance in various commercial and industrial lighting applications. These lamps are known for their energy efficiency, durability, and versatility, making them an ideal choice for facilities that require bright and reliable illumination.

The T12HO (High Output) and T10VHO (Very High Output) lamps are primarily characterized by their larger diameters, with T12 measuring 1.5 inches and T10 measuring 1.25 inches. These dimensions allow for increased lumen output, making these lamps suitable for environments where high-intensity lighting is essential, such as warehouses, gymnasiums, and manufacturing facilities.

One of the standout features of these lamps is their advanced phosphor coating, which enhances light quality and color rendering. This coating ensures that the emitted light is bright and evenly distributed, providing improved visibility and reducing the chances of fatigue among workers. With high Color Rendering Index (CRI) values, these lamps can illuminate colors more accurately, which is particularly important for tasks requiring color distinction.

Philips has integrated energy-efficient technologies into the design of the T12HO and T10VHO lamps. They are designed to operate at higher wattages but yield significant savings in energy costs compared to traditional lighting solutions. This not only helps reduce operational expenses for businesses but also contributes to lower carbon footprints.

Another critical characteristic of these lamps is their long life span. With a rated life of up to 20,000 hours, Philips T12HO and T10VHO lamps minimize frequent replacements, further enhancing their cost-effectiveness. Their robust construction also allows them to withstand more challenging environments, making them less prone to breakage.

In terms of compatibility, these lamps can be paired with various fixtures and ballasts, providing flexibility during installation and ensuring they can be integrated into existing lighting systems.

In summary, Philips T12HO and T10VHO fluorescent lamps exemplify high-performance lighting solutions characterized by high output, energy efficiency, long life, and superior light quality. They are well-suited for a variety of commercial and industrial applications, making them a reliable choice for enhancing workplace illumination.
