The following conditions can reduce average lamp life and lumen maintenance: frequent on/off switching high line voltage vibration high ambient temperature within the fixture ballast and ignitor characteristics verage rated life The survival of individual lamps or particular groups of lamps depends on these system conditions, and actual data may fall within the lines, or dependent upon the lamp operating conditions even below the lower limit below (see Lamp surivival graph). For cost-of-light calculations involving these lamps, the following estimated operating times are suggested for 5% survival: Lucalox Internal Ignitor 5W 12, hours - 7W 17,5 hours Lucalox T ouble Ended 1W, hours Lucalox E-Z Lux 11W 24, hours 3
Lumen maintenance Under the same controlled conditions, Initial Reference lumens refer to the lamp lumen output after 1-hours burning. ue to variations in systems and service conditions (in particular the burning cycle), actual lamp performance can vary from the reference lumen ratings. The lumen maintenance (light output during life) of individual lamps or particular groups of lamps may fall within the lines, or dependent upon the lamp operating conditions even below the lower limit line (see Lumen maintenance graph).

Hot re-strike time Lucalox T ouble Ended ll ratings re-strike within 1 minute following a short interruption in the supply. ctual re-strike time is determined by ignitor type, pulse voltage and cooling rate of the lamp. T lamps can restrike immediately using suitable high starting pulse. Lucalox Internal Ignitor ll ratings must restrike between 1 and 7 minutes following a short interruption of power supply. Supply voltage Lamps are suitable for supplies in the range 2V to 25V 5/6Hz for appropriately rated series choke (reactor) ballasts. Supplies outside this range require a transformer (conventional, high reactance or CW) to ensure correct lamp operation. Lamps start and operate at 1% below the rated supply voltage when the correct control gear is used. However, in order to maximise lamp survival, lumen maintenance and colour uniformity the supply voltage and ballast design voltage should be within ±3%. Supply variations of ±5% are permissible for short periods only. This may be achieved by measuring mean supply voltage at the installation and selecting ballasts with appropriate settings. 16% Effect of supply voltage variations on performance Internal ignitor and T double ended lamps 14% Effect of supply voltage variations on performance E-Z Lux lamps Percentage of nominal value 14% 1% 1% 8% 6% 4% % Percentage of nominal value 1% 1% 8% 6% 4% % % 6 7 8 9 1 11 1 Supply voltage (%) % 9 95 1 15 11 Supply voltage (%) Control gear It is essential to use a ballast appropriate to the supply voltage at the luminaire.

Cap Temperature 21 C 35 C Luminaire voltage rise To maximise lamp life it is essential that luminaires are designed so that when lamps are enclosed lamp voltage rise does not exceed the following values: 5 7 1 Lucalox Internal Ignitor Voltage Rise (V) 5 5 Lucalox T ouble Ended Voltage Rise (V) Control gear To achieve correct lamp starting, performance and life it is important that lamp and control gear are compatible and suitably rated for the supply voltage at the luminaire. allasts Lamps are fully compatible with ballasts manufactured for high pressure sodium lamps to IEC 6662. allasts should comply with specifications IEC 6922 and IEC 6923. allast thermal protection Use of ballasts incorporating thermal cut-out is not a specific requirement but is a good optional safety measure for the installation. allast voltage adjustment Series choke (reactor) ballasts incorporating additional tappings at ±1V of the rated supply voltage are recommended. lternatively a single additional tapping 1V above the rated supply voltage will ensure lamps are not overloaded due to excessive supply voltage. Ignitors Ignitors should comply with specifications IEC6926 and IEC6927 and have starting pulse characteristics as follows: Timed ignitors Use of a timed or cut-out ignitor is not a specific requirement, but it is a good optional safety feature for installation. The timed period must be adequate to allow lamps to cool and restart when the supply is interrupted briefly (see Hot re-strike time ). Cable between ignitor and lamp Cables connected between the lamp and a superimposed ignitor Lp terminal, or the ballast when using an impulser ignitor, must be rated at a minimum 5/6Hz voltage of 1V. Mineral insulated cable is not suitable for connecting the lamp to the control gear. To achieve good starting superimposed ignitors must be adjacent to the luminaire. Cable capacitance of wiring between the ignitor Lp terminal and the lamp should not exceed 1pF (<1 metre length) when measured to adjacent earthed metal and/or other cables, unless otherwise stated by the ignitor manufacturer. When using impulser type ignitors longer cable lengths between ballast and lamp are normally permissible. Limits for particular ignitors are available on request from GE Lighting or directly from the ignitor manufacturer. PFC capacitors for choke (reactor) circuits Power factor correction is advisable in order to minimise supply current and electricity costs. For 2-25V supplies 25V±1% rated capacitors are recommended as follows: 5 7 11 PFC Capacitor (µf) 8 8 1 Voltage (kv) (1) Max.
