Important Notice

This catalogue contains accumulated data to February 2003. Additional information is constantly being uncovered through research and testing, which may modify the data given herein. This is particularly true of newer lamps. For the latest lamp design data and information, contact your General Electric Lamp Representative.

The data and suggested applications contained in this catalogue, as well as any additional information our representative may be able to furnish, are for general information only and are not intended and should not be taken as representations or warranties as to the suitability of a lamp for any particular attention or use in any particular equipment, nor are our representatives authorised to make any such representations or give any such warranties. Applications and conditions of use are many and varied, and beyond our control. We cannot possibly have the same degree of knowledge that the purchaser has with respect to the design of their equipment and the conditions of its use. Therefore, it is up to the purchaser to make their own determination as to the suitability of a lamp for his intended application or use and to assume the responsibility for that determination.

General Electric desires to supply the best possible products at all times. For this reason, General Electric reserves the right to make changes in its products when it believes such changes will improve its products.

Operating Notes

Caution notices are included with all lamps. Users are urged to read and comply with these.

Operating precautions

All lamps in this catalogue must be operated with a series fuse in the circuit, as directed in the Technical Digest.

Lamps of quartz construction use a gas filling at a pressure higher than atmospheric and as the lamp can in rare instances shatter in use, suitable shielding techniques should be employed where appropriate. Also protect the lamp from mishandling, scratches and abrasions, and do not operate at above correct rated voltage.

Operating position

For good performance lamps must be used within specified limitations on operating position. The following abbreviations are used in the lamp tables to indicate these limits:

BD - Base Down. Operate only vertical, base down. BU - Base Up. Operate only vertical, base up.

BDTH - Base Down To Horizontal. Do not operate with base above horizontal. Horiz. - Horizontal. Operate only in horizontal position.
