1) Measured at100 hrs.life.Approximate lumenvalues listed arefor vertical operation of thelamp.
2)Approximate lumenoutput at 40%of lamp rated average life.
3) Rated average life isobtained,on the average,from large representative groupsof lamps inlaboratory testsunder controlled conditionsat 10 ormore operating hours
per start.It is based on survival of atleast 50% ofthe lamps andallows for individuallamps or groupsof lamps tovaryconsiderably from theaverage.
4) Measuredat rated lamp wattson a linearreactor.LPW does notinclude ballast losses.
5) Measuredwith the lampoperating atrated watts.
6) Option-PulseWidth @90% Peak,1 microsecond minimum with2 pulses perhalf cycle.

“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 minutesunless adequate shielding or
other safety precautionsare 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
Canada:SOR/DORS/80-381)
If the outer bulb is broken or punctured,turn offat 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 ifthe envelope isstruck.
WARNING:The arc-tube of metal halide lamps are designed to operate under high pressure
and at temperatures up to 1000º C and can unexpectedly rupture due to internal or external
factors such as a ballast failure or misapplication If the arc-tube ruptures for any reason,the
outer bulb may break and pieces of extremely hot glass might be discharged into the
surrounding environment.If such a rupture were to happen,THERE ISA RISK OF
PERSONAL INJURY,PROPERTY DAMAGE,BURNSAND FIRE.
Certain lamps that will retain all the glass particles should inner arc-tube
rupture occur are commercially available from Philips Lighting Company.
RELAMP FIXTURESAT 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.
This lamp contains anarc tube with a filling gas containing Kr-85 and is
distributed by Philips Lighting Company,a division of Philips Electronics
NorthAmerica Corporation,Somerset,New Jersey,08875.
CAUTION:TO REDUCETHE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY,PROPERTY DAMAGE,
BURNSAND FIRE RESULTING FROMAN ARC-TUBE RUPTURETHE FOLLOWING
LAMP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
MUST BE FOLLOWED:
LAMP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. 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.
2. Use only in fully enclosed fixtures capable of withstanding particles of glass having tem-
peratures up to1000ºC. Lens/diffuser material must be heat resistant.Consult fixture
manufacturer regarding the suitability of the fixture for this lamp.
3. Do not operate a fixture with a missing or broken lens/diffuser.
4. Operate lamp only within specified limits of operating position.
5. Before lamp installation/replacement, shut power off and allow lamp and fixture to cool
to avoid electrical shock and potential burn hazards.
6. 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.
C. Operate CDM-T6 (G12 base) lamps only on thermally
protected ballasts.
D.Operate CDM-TC lamps (G8.5 base),and CDM-T6 Elite lamps,and
CDM-T6 39W/842 only on thermally protected electronic ballasts.
7. Periodically inspect the outer envelope. Replace any lamps that show scratches,cracks
or damage.
8.
If alamp bulb support is used,be sure to insulate the support electrically to avoid possible
decomposition of the bulb glass.
9. Protect lamp base, socket and wiring against moisture, corrosive atmospheres and
excessive heat.
10.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.
11.Lamps may require 4 to 8 minutes to re-light if there is a power interruption.
12.Take care in handling and disposing of lamps. If an arc tube is broken, avoid skin contact
with any of the contents or fragments.
