1)Average life under engineering data with lamps turned off and restarted once every 12 operating hours.

2)Approximate initial lumens.The lamp lumen output is based upon lamp performance after 100 hours of operating life, when the output is measured during operation on a reference ballast under standard laboratory conditions. For expected lamp lumen output, commercial ballast manufacturers can advise the appropriate ballast factor for each of their ballasts when they are informed of the designated lamp.The ballast factor is a multiplier applied to the designated lamp lumen output.

3)Design lumens are the approximate lamp lumen output at 40% of the lamp’s rated average life.This output is based upon measurements obtained during lamp operation on a reference ballast under standard laboratory conditions. Lamp meets US Federal Minimum Efficiency Standards.

Philips PLUS T8 Gold 32W lamps versus Standard T8 Gold 32W lamps

General Overview

Philips PLUS T8 Gold 32W Lamps provide up to 50% longer life than standard T8 Gold products

in the industry.

Benefits

By using Philips PLUS T8 Gold fluorescent lamps, the lamp replacement and labor costs may be extended by an extra 2 1⁄2 years on a facility that operates an average of 4,000 hours per year. For example, a standard T8 Gold product, with a rated average life expectancy of 20,000 hours should last five years (20,000 hours rated life / 4,000 hours per year =

5 years). Conversely, Philips Long Life PLUS T8 Gold fluorescent lamps should operate for seven and a half years due to their rated average life expectancy of 30,000 hours (30,000 hours rated average life / 4,000 hours per year = 71⁄2 years). 71⁄2 years – 5 years = 2 1⁄2 years.
