Compact Fluorescent Lamps

ApplicationThese compact fluorescent lamps are designed as

replacements for GLS lamps and long fluorescent tubes.

1óW 2D lamps replace GLS lamps of up to 100W whilst the

larger 28 and 38W 2D lamps replace lamps of between 150

and 200W. The 38W 2D is an ideal light package for use in300 x 300mm modular ceiling systems.

2L lamps replace long fluorescent tubes of at least twice

their length and are used in commercial premises, e.g.

shops, offices and hotels, whilst the smaller sizes are ideal

fo¡ outdoor amenity lighting.

The elechonically ballasted 40W 2L is the optimum size

and performance package for ó00 x ó00mm modules, which

together with its ideal length (leaving no dark areas at theedges), and high frequency benefits (lack of flicker, instant

starting and economy of operation) make it the ultimatesolution for situations where only the best is good enough.

ColoursBoth 2D and 2L lamps use Polylux phosphors for high lightoutput and good colour rendering.

2D lamps are available in Polylux 2700 which closelymatches the colour of tungsten filament lamps for most

indoor applications and Polylux 3500 to match the standard

commercial lighting colour.

lóW versions are also available in seven vibrant colou¡edhues fo¡ decorative and display use.

2L lamps are available in Polylux 3500, as the standard UK

colour fo¡ commercial lighting, as well as Polylux 3000 for

a warmer effect and Polylux 4000 to produce a cooler, more

businesslike effect.

Fluorescent Tubes - Main RangeDefinition of Lamp TypesPolylux Tubes:THORN Polylux tubes are high efficiency, high colour

rendering tri-phosphor tubes which are recommended for

all new installations.

Polylux phosphors produce about 12% more light than

conventional phosphors and give high colour rendering

values. In the standa¡d 2ómm diameter Krypton filled

versions, the¡e is also an 870 saving of energy for equivalent

light output. These lamps also have excellent light output

maintenance.

Pluslux Tubes:

THORN Pluslux tubes are 2ómm diameter ve¡sions of the

standard colou¡ range. They offer the 870 energy saving oftrrypion filled tubes without the inc¡eased light output and

improved colour rendering characteristics of Polylux tubes.

Colour Data

For furlher infomation see Data Sheet 4:92.9.CCT Co¡related Colour TemperatureSPD - Spectral Power Dlstribuiion See pages 10- I2.

Standard Tubes:

Argon filled tubes usually 38mrn in diameter, but some

ratings are in 2ómm diameter (e.g. 18" 15W,3' 30W,1050mm 40W and 5' 50W).

The phosphors are split into two types - ordinary andspecialist.

O Ordinary phosphors are generally halophosphates andcomprise the colou¡s of White Warm White, CoolWhite, Natu¡al and TropicalDaylight and are used forgeneral lighting.

O Specialists phosphors are of the Deluxe type and areused for specific applications. For example 'Kolor-rite,

Northlight, Ailificial Daylight, De Luxe Natural,Rosetta, G¡olux and colours.

Light Output Data

The lumen outputs quoted are measured at 25"C in

acco¡dance with 8S1853, i.e. in free air under draughtfree conditions.

Effects of Temperafure ChangesWhen installed in a luminaire, the temperature of the air

suroundìng the tube can change and this can affect thelight output of the tube. The effects of changes in ambienttemperature for a typical tube are shown below.

Ballast Lumen FactorLumen outputs are given for tubes run on a referenceballast. Commercial ballasts can operate tubes at differentcharacteristics and a ballast lumen factor will be given foreach ballast to determine actual light output figures.

Effects of High Frequency OperationA characteristic of fluorescent tubes is that their efficacy(lumens/watt) increases with fiequency. Increasing thefrequency of operation from that of the normal mainssupply of s0ló0Hz to 2513OkHz improves tube efficacy byapproxilnately 1070.

Electronic ballasts also consume less power than wi¡ewoundballasts, giving a further increase in cìrcuit efficacy and

producing less heat.

By designing the electronic ballasts to operate tubes at 9570of bare tube lumens in an ambient temperature of 25"C,

watts are reduced by about 14%. At more frequentlyencountered operating temperatures of approximately 35"Cto 40"C light output is equivalent to that in a conventionalcìrcuit and at higher temperatures it is better.

A power saving of around 20% can be achieved overconventional 50/ó0Hz systems with the same light outputlevels-

Fluorescent Tubes - Main RangeLife and Lumen Depreciation Factors

The Effects of SwitchingWhen a tube is operating, a small amount of the electron

emissive material on the cathodes is continually consumed,but at starting a relatively large amount is dislodged. End oflife is reached when no active emitter remains on the

cathode and the tube is unable to sta¡t.

A frequently switched tube will fail much earlier than onethat is hardly switched at all but in the latter case its lightoutput will have fallen very low befo¡e actual failu¡e.

The graph shows the effect on life of different switching

cycles.

Economic LifeMost tubes employed in today's modem environment

operate with an extended period (greater than 3 hours)between switchings which results in long lives, and becauseof this due consideration should be given to the "lighting

economics".

The economic factor arises from the gradual degradation in

the tube's light output during operation due todeterioration of the phosphors whereby it becomes

desirable to replace the tube prior to actual failure. Thefavourable economics of Polylux tubes become apparentwhen compared with other tubes because of theìr superior

lumen maintenance ch¿racteristics.

One definition of 'economic life'is the time at which thelight output has fallen to 7070 of the initial (100 hou¡)figure. This is defined as the time during which the lightoutput - as a result of mortality and light reduction - hasdropped 30% from the initial light output.

FREQUENCY OF SWTCHING PER 24 HOURS

Planned Lighting MaintenanceThemost sçnsible wayto arrange tubereplacement is to choose

a planned lighting maintenance system. This ensures that:

a) The installation maintains a uniform appearance.b) The rìsk of damage to the control gear by tubes failing is

¡educed.

c) Cleaning of the luminaires can be unde¡taken at the sametime as the lamp change, at little extra cost.

The few individual tubes which faii between the planned

replacement times should be replaced immediately.

General Information

British StandardsFluorescent tubes described in this catalogue conform to

British Standard 1853 and Intemational Standard IEC81

where applicable.

GE Thom holds Licence no. 5247 for the manufacture of

fluorescent tubes to BS 1853.

Marking of rated wattage on tubesThe wattage dissipated and lumen output of any discharge

lamp, including a fluorescent tube, depend mainly on the

cha¡acteristics of the ballast with which the particular lamp

is operated and on the maìns supply voltage at any

given time.

Because of this the marking of a rated wattage on any given

fluorescent tube does not necessarily indicate the wattage

which the tube is intended to dissipate in any given

circuit arrangement.

The appropriate fluorescenl tube and associated ballast

specifications list the ¡ated or nominal wattage of any given

tube type and also the'objective wattage'which is the

actual target wattage the tube should dissipate when

operated under prescribed conditions in association with

a mid-point reference ballast.

Ballast Lumen FactorThe ratib of the light output of the lamp when the ballast

under test is operated at its rated voltage, compared withthe light output of the same lamp operated with theappropriate reference ballast supplied at its rated voltage

and frequency.

Electrical DataThis is given for standard conhol gear operated in 240V

5OHz tube ci¡cuits. Average performance is determined at

25"C in accordance with BS 2818. The circuit watts quoted

may be reduced by up to 570 when operating in somã

luminaires because circuit watts reduce as the lamp

operating temperature rises.

Tube GradesThere are different grades ol tube to suit varioui types

of control gear and the côrrect type must be used to obtain

satisfactory starting performance.

Standard 26mm and 38mm Diameter Tubes

Altstandard THORN 2ómm and 38mm diameter argon

filled tubes are lor use in all luminaires.

Fo¡ starterless circuits the metal chassis must extend the full

length of the tube, be not more than 20mm from it, and be

bonded to earth. Switchless start ci¡cuits must be used only

on 200-250V 5OHz supplies where the neutral conducto¡

is at earth potential. 2ómm diameter Krypton filled(Pluslux and Polylux) tubes are suitable for switchstart,

Vivatronic or electronic ballast start only.

Miscellaneous Tubes

Metal Strip Tubes (MCFA/U)

These are supplied for use where ea¡thed metalwork is not

adjacent to the tube. A metallic conducting strip is

cemented to the outside of the tube, connected to both

caps, which must be earthed. A limited range of the more

popular tubes in ó00-1800mm lengths, can be supplied withmetal strip.

Coloured Tubes

Red and Gold tubes are only for use on starter switch

circuits and not switchless-start circuits.

Colour Temperatures for Fluorescent Tubes

The term'colour temperature'should shictly be applied

only to spectral dishibutions that give chromaticity

co-o¡dinates close to the black body locus. Thus in

fluorescent tube colours the 'colour temperature' is merely

an indication of the location of the chromaticity

co-ordinates on a colour chart.

The 'colour temperatures' should not be used as a guide for

photographic purposes.

Spectral Distribution

Spechal distribution data is given in graphical form.

Horizontal scales are wavelengths in nanometres(10'' metres).

Vertical scales are power in milliwatts per 5 nanometre

band width per 1000 lumens for a 1500mm tube at 58W or

ó5W as appropriate.

Lumen Outputs

The lumen outputs quoted in this catalogue are measured at

25"C in accordance with BS 1853.

Note that lumen outputs of individual tubes are within the

limits specified in BS 1853 according to rating.

Initial Lumenslnitial lumens are measured after 100 hours operation.

Lumens During Life

Lamp outputs at 2000 hours are also included as a guide to

lighting engineen planning scheme layouts. Lumen output

beyond 2000 hours decreases by 270 to 470 per 1000 hours

use according to the colour and loading (see curves on

preceding pages).

Fusing

For a very short period afteir-switch-on, a discharge lampmay act as a rectifier and as a result the ballast may allowseveral times the normal circuit current to flow.

To prevent rectification occurring at end of life conlinuousoperation of discharge lamps should be avoided and aswitch off introduced at least once every 24 hours.

Run-up and re-strike timesWhen a discharge lamp is switched on, cunent first flows

through the starting gas of the arc tube. The heat generated

vapourises the mercury, sodium or halide filling until the

operating conditions are achieved. Thrs is known as the

run-up.

The following table shows typical times for both run up and

re-skike. The actual time will vary according to location,

luminaire and ambient temperature. Re-shike time is based

upon lamps that have fully run-up and are subject to a

momentary interruption to the supply voltage. Run-up

times are for the period up to 9070 normal light output.

Most discharge lamps, except for mercury lamps are started

by a high voltage pulse supplied by separate ignitor which

ceases to function once the lamp has started. Extemal

starting simplifies lamp construction and is very reliable.

AIITHORN SON lamps carry the intemationally agreed

lÀ symbol to indicate suitability for use with extemalignitor circuits.

SOX/SOX-E Lamps

A1(M) Hatlield Tunnel

Low Pressure Sodium

SOX-E lamps confer the same luminous advantages

associated with standard SOX lamps in that the

monocluomatic radiation emitted by SOX-E corresponds

closely to the optimum sensitivity of the human eye.

The nature of this radiation means that colour performance

is, therefore, also the same. However, by modifying the

construction of the standard SOX lamp, power savings can

be achieved and this amounts for the'T" suffix which

stands foTECONOMY.

DescriptionThe construction of SOX-E is similar to standard SOX (see

previous page) except that the thermal insulation is

irnptou.d. This in.reases the efficacy of the lamp and by

reducing the Wattage, significant power savings can be

achieved with only a small reduction in light output.

SOX-E lamps are interchangeable with standard SOX lamps

operating costs. Two of the great features of the lamp are

that it provides white light with reasonable colour

rendering ability and, because it operates on a simple ballastcircuit a KOLORLUX package is simple and rncurs lowcapital costs.

DescriptionMBF lamps consist of a high pressure mercury discharge

High Pressure Mercury - Super DeluxeMBFSD lamps operate in the same manner as standard MBFexcept that these new lamps incorporate a new "Super

Deluxe" phosphor which has recently been developed, Thisphosphor converts even more of the light normallyproduced from the arc tube into the 'îedder" part of thespectrum than the phosphor in standard MBF lamps and

thus the colour of the lamp improves significantly.

DescriptionThe construction and operation of this lamp is the same asfor standard MBF (see previous page) wrth a change inphosphor-coating only. This phosphor reduces the colourtemperature to a warmer and more acceptable 3300K(allowrng an acceptable blend with fluorescent and tungstenlighting) and improves the colour rendering Lo an Ra of 55.In addition the lumen output for most ratings of MBFSD is5% more than that achieved from standard MBF.

Metal Halide - KOTORARCln terms of development, KOLORARC lamps are a

progression from standard mercury lamps. The luminous

efficacy is almost 2570 higher and the lamps have

excellent colour rendering abilities and a clean white

colour appearance.

DescriptionKOLORARC lamps consist of a high pressure discharge in

mercury vapour with MetalHalide additives, operating in a

quartz arc tube. It is these metallic additives which providethe excellent colour performance. The quartz arc tube is

mounted in an elliptical glass bulb which is either clear for

the MBI version, or coated internally with a fluorescent

phosphor for the MBIF lamp.

ApplicationsKOLOMRC lamps are ideally suited for applicationswhere high quality white light is required. They are

particularly suitable for commercial interiors, indushial

workshops and exhibition areas but are also suitable for

situations whe¡e television cameras are likely to be used or

where any filming is likely to take place. Finally, the MBI

version lends itself to floodlighting applications as the

clear lamp allows good optical control when used in

suitable luminaires.

Operating Positions:BUH - Base Up to Horizontal. Operates in any position

between cap up and cap 15" below horizontal.

H - Horizontal. Primarily designed to operate* 15' of horizontalbut canbe usedup to * ó0"of horizontal.

BU - Base Up. Permitted operating position is base upwithin + 30" of the vertical.

BD - Base down. Permitted operating position is basedown within * 30" of the vertical.

U - Universal. Suitable for operating in any position.Not all permutations of wattage and operating positionare available with KOLORARC lamps. Please check

before ordering.

NotesIt is important that these lamps are operated in suitably

enclosed luminaires with UV absorbing cover glasses.

Full enclosure will also retaìn the fragments of glass inthe unusual evenl of the outer bulbs shattering at the end

of life.

As there are no intemational standards for Metal Halide

lamps such as these it is important to check the

compatibility of lamp and control gear.

ApplicationsArcstream's compact size, its high lumen output and colourperformance make it a highly versatile lightsource. Beingsuch a small, point like source, precise optical control can beachieved with equally compact fitLings. It is, therefore,particularly useful for display lighting where the qualìty oflight and its conkollabllity ls vital. This controllability alsomakes Arcstream extremely useful as a means offloodlighting. Equally, its ability to blend with otherlighting means lhaL Arcst¡eam is also an excelìent choice forcommercial lnteriors, particularly when used in conjunctionwith the new range of slim uplighters which have beenspecially designed for Arcstream.

Finally, being single-ended, installation and maintenance is

much easier than for double-ended versions.

ARCSTREAM 3000 or 4000Metal Halide lamps - MBI-T.A¡cstream is the very latest in metal halide lamp

development. II is extremely compact and while being a

low wattage lamp has a high Ìumen output and a long life

which makes it a highly efficient lightsource. In addition

Arcstream's colour performance is excellent. With a high

Ra, colour rende¡ing is extremely accurate and with a

choice of colour temperatures - 3000K (warm) and 4000K(cool), Arcsheam provides a high quality white light which

is sure to match any lighting installation - particularlyLightstream and fluorescent.

Metal Halide - LinearMBIL lamps are the powerfulmetalhalide lamps whichhave changed floodlighting systems dramatically overrecent years. The laimps are slim and double-ended in design

which allows positive location in luminaires and ensuresthat focussing is extremely accurate. It is this control whichwhen combined with the right reflector design allows evenillumination without uncomfortable glare as a result of lightspillage. Being metal halide, MBIL has excellent colou¡performance. Colour rendering is good and colou¡temperature is 5200K - cool white light whichapproximates to daylight. Finally, despite its small sizeMBIL has an extremely hìgh lumen output and.a long life.

Operational and maintenance costs are, therefore lowerthan would normally be achieved from conventionalfloodlighting lamps.

DescriptionMBIL lamps consist of a high pressure discharge with MetalHalide additives operating in a double-ended quartz arctube. The arc tube is not mounted in an oute¡ bulb but is leftbare for use in suitably designed luminaires such asTHORN Lighting's OW 1500.

ApplicationsCSI are ideal for the long range projection of light from

high towers. They are, therefore, most frequently used formajor sporting stadia especially as their excellent colour

rendering and appearance makes them highly suitable

where televìsion cameras are used. However, with theireconomy of operation, CSI lamps are frequently used for

many other general floodlighting applications, particularly

decorative lighting of buildings, monuments, columns oratria.

Operating PositionUniversal.

Metal Halide - Compact Source, Sealed BeamCSI Sealed Beam lamps extend the posibilities offloodlighting scheme design by providing a projector orspotlight rather than a wide beam flood which the MBILoffers. Being a Metal Halide lightsource, colou¡performance is excellent, with a high Ra and colourtemperature of 4000K. With its own in-buìlt reflecto¡system, optical control is extremely accurate and is madeeven more controllable when used in conjunction wìthspecial luminaires such as THORN Lighting's OQ1000. CSIlamps are also available in a hot restrike version so that in[he event of an interruption to the power supply, the lampswill re-start immedìately. Finally, with their high efficacyand long life, operational and maintenance costs a¡e lowerthan would be expected from conventional floodlightinglamps,

DescriptionCSI consists of a high pressure discharge with Metal Halideadditives operating in a quartz arc tube. The arc tube is

mounted in a PAR ó4 sealed beam unit with a clear frontglass. This unit not only provides thermal and physicalprotection for the arc tubes but also acts as an integralprecision reflector system.

Discharge Lamps for Special Applications

GE Thom are pleased to advise on the application of theirstandard discharge sources for special situations. A typìcalexample of this is in the use of THORN MBI lamps byTrinity House in unmarured Lighthouses, an applicationwhich makes full irse of their long life, good maintenance

and white light characte¡istics. The lamps directly replaceincandescenl lamps in optics of the rotating lens type.

Special discharge lamps have been made ['1 lH{.)R\ l,'rmany specific and diverse applications. Typical cxamples

are disco lighting, criminal forensic work, water sIerilisalron,

planI growlh and a mulIitude of applications in the GraphrcArts Indushy.

THORN are the world's recognised leaders in the

development of short arc mefal halide lamps. Such types as

lheir CSI and CID range are used all ovcr the world for

lighting in the Film and Television lnduslry. Sealed Beam(PARó4) types are used for sporls fields fìoodllghtlng

especially where illuminalion is required [o television

slandards.

A range of Xenon lamps, of the shorl arc high brightness,

high pressure type typically used in film projection and

oplical and laboratory applications, is also available.

General Lamp Information

GE Thom offer a comprehensive range of incandescent

lamps suitable for domestic, comme¡cial or industrialapplications. Over 99% of the lamps listed in this sectionare manufactwed in our UK factories whe¡e meticulousattention is paid to quality conhol and where the latesthigh speed manufactwing equipment ensures that a sa{eand reliable product is produced.

British and International StandardsLamps described in this section comply with thefollowing British and European standards whereapplicable:

British InternationalStandard Equivalent DescriptionBS1ó1 IEC54 Specification for tungsten

filament lamps for general

lighting service.855971. lEC432 Safety and interchangeability of

tungsten filament lamps fordomestic and general lighting

purposes.

BS5 101 Specification for lamp caps andhoìders together with gauges

for the control ofinterchangeability and safety.

8561.79 Specification for tungstenfilament lamps for general

lighting service with lives of2000 hours.

Lumen Ouþuts of GLS LampsThis information is given in the table below. The figures are

derived from Naiional and Intemational specifications and

are provided for the guidance of lighting engineers. Initial

lumens are the average lumen outputs at the start of lifewhile Lighting Design Lumens are the average lumen

outputs throughout the life of the lamp.

Average Life and Initial LumensThe quality control of GLS lamps has been extremely well

developed, but because minute variations within laid down

production tolera¡ces produce proportionally greater

changes in average life and lumens, it is impossible toguarantee these figuresfor m individuallamp.

The average life (the rated life of a doublelife lamp is 2000

hou¡s: all others 1000 hours) and lumens quoted in ourliterature and on lamp cartons is calculated statistically byregularly measuring and life testing sample quantities oflamps to BSló1 and IECó¿, and taking these results as beingrepresentative of our production of a particular type oflamp. These results are recorded and over a period of time

an on-going indication of quality is established. The

average life of a small quantity of lamps should not betaken as typicalunless the results are read in conþctionwith BSlól and IECó4.

Operating conditions, pàrticularly supply voltage and

buming position, will affect achieved life. As can be seenfrom the following graph, a 5% increase in supply voltage

will reduce the expected life by 5070, hence correctmatching of lamp and supply voltage is essential.

Tungsten Halogen Lamps

Linear Lamps

Lamps below 500W use a quartz spine filament support

design which allows longer life and universal buming. Alllamps up to 500W have an internal fuse, except for 120V

lamps where it is not necessary.

Tubular Lamps

These lamps are fused internally with a ballotini fuse.

Operating TemperaturesDuring operation, the temperature of the lamp pinch seal

should not exceed 350"C, whilst the bulb wall temperature

must not drop below 250"C in order to maintain the

tungsten halogen cycle.

B

Dimensìons ove¡leaf.

Fusing

It is recommended that a suitably rated fuse be used in the

luminaire or extemal circuit, as listed.
