1)Average life under engineering data with lamps turned off and restarted once every 12 operating hours.
2)Protective coating may reduce actual lumens by up to 5%.
Above specifications are subject to change without notice.
WARNINGS:
•Coating can withstand bulb wall temperatures up to 500°F, subject to the following conditions:
1)Lamp must be installed and operated in ambient temperature below 150°F.
2)Lamp is not used in fixture that does not allow heat dissipation.
•UV radiation emitted from metal halide lamps may deteriorate the coating over time.
•The coating is not designed to contain an
•Under extreme conditions glass fragments may escape the coating
•Only protective shrouded lamps are resistant to metal halide
Made to order requires 3 week lead time (No product returns on made to order lamps)
RECOMMENDED WARNINGS, CAUTIONS,AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS For Standard Metal Halide Lamps (Enclosed Fixtures Unless Otherwise Noted)
R“WARNING: 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
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.
WARNING: The
THERE IS A RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, BURNS AND FIRE.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED:
LAMP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1.Turn off lamps at least once a week for at least 15 minutes in systems which are operating on a continuous basis (24

2.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.
3.Before lamp installation/replacement, shut power off and allow lamp and fixture to cool to avoid electrical shock and potential burn hazards.
4.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.
5.Periodically inspect the outer envelope. Replace any lamps that show scratches, cracks or damage.
6.If a lamp bulb support is used, be sure to insulate the support electrically to avoid possible decomposition of the bulb glass.
7.Protect lamp base, socket and wiring against moisture, corrosive atmospheres and excessive heat.
8.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.
9.Lamps may require 10 to 20 minutes to
10.Take care in handling and disposing of lamps. If an arc tube is broken, avoid skin contact with any of the contents or fragments.
11.Do not use this lamp:
A.In a fixture that contains a Pulse Start metal halide ballast.
B.In a fixture that is specifically designed for use with Pulse Start metal halide lamps.Operation of these lamps on Pulse Start Metal Halide systems may increase the chance of an outer bulb rupture 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 PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, BURNS AND FIRE.
