PREFACE
SAFETY ON BOARD –
LIGHT BULBS FROM HELLA
As the technological leader in smart light distribution systems,
halogen, xenon and full LED headlamps, and as a partner to
renowned vehicle manufacturers throughout the world, HELLA
always meet the highest expectations and quality standards.
These are the specific standards we apply to our extensive range
of light bulbs: Product diversity—from traditional halogen lights
all the way to stylistic (design-oriented) xenon lights, leading
technology with rigorously tested high-quality without any
compromises and optimum light output levels, even in the
harshest weather conditions.
This ensures that our long-lasting, robust products not only have
the lowest possible failure rates, but are also significantly
brighter. For your safety on the road.
LIGHT SOURCES
Good visibility is the most important criterion for road safety.
Various circumstances can impair this visibility, including twilight,
adverse weather conditions, dirty windshields, etc. The risk of
accidents is comparatively high under these kinds of driving
conditions.
Changing and continually increasing mobility and traffic density
also contribute to a higher risk. To meet these challenges
successfully, we are constantly working towards improving
existing lighting systems as well as developing new technical
lighting equipment.
Here is a summary of the most important basic terms in lighting technology and the respective units of measure for bulb and light evaluation.
| 54
Luminous flux Φ
Unit: lumen [lm]
Luminous flux F is the term used to describe the
complete luminous efficacy radiated from a light
source.
Luminous intensity I
Unit: candela [cd]
This is the portion of the luminous flux radiating in a
specific direction.
Illuminance E
Unit: lux [lx]
Illuminance E specifies the incident luminous flux per
unit of illuminated area. Illuminance is 1 lx when a
luminous flux of 1 lm strikes an area of 1 m².
Luminous efficacy ŋ
Unit: lumen per watt [lm/W]
Luminous efficacy ŋ specifies how efficiently
consumed electrical power is converted into light.
Light sources
Light sources are thermal radiators that produce light
through heat energy. This means the more a light
source is heated, the higher its luminous intensity will
be.
Luminance L
Unit: candela per square meter [cd/m²]
Luminance L is the amount of brightness detected by
the eye from a luminous or illuminated surface.
COMPARISON OF LIGHT SOURCES
H4 HALOGEN LAMP
Halogen lamps are actually thermal radiators that convert heat
energy into light. The filament begins to glow when subjected to
a voltage, generating light as a result.

A standard halogen lamp has an efficiency of around 8 %.

D2R HID LAMP
High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps are also known colloquially
as xenon bulbs because they are filled with xenon gas. A ballast
generates a high voltage, which produces an electrical gas
discharge in the discharge chamber, creating a very bright arc. An
HID lamp has an efficiency around 3.5 times higher than a
halogen lamp (28% light radiation).
| 76
Due to higher luminous efficacy, HID lamps can produce more
light than halogen lamps while using the same amount of
energy. Thus, an HID lamp of the same size has stronger light
distribution.

THE RIGHT SOLUTION, EVERY TIME
PERFORMANCE PYRAMID FOR HELLA
HALOGEN LAMPS
Drivers are as varied as their cars and their requirements are just
as varied. There are many ways to modify a halogen bulb to
match the characteristics to individual needs. The HELLA range
of halogen lamps pushes the envelope of the possible and offers
the right lamp for every driver.

COLOR SPECTRUM SHOWING
TYPICAL COLOR TEMPERATURES
The color temperature of light sources is measured in kelvin
(symbol K). Color temperatures over 4,000 K are called 'cold'
colors (bluish white), while lower temperatures (yellowish to
reddish) are considered 'warm'.
| 98
The higher the color temperature of a light source, the higher the
proportion of blue in its color spectrum (see image below). An
incandescent bulb has a warm white color temperature of
approx. 2,700 K. The following image depicts the color
temperature spectrum.
When inserting a new lamp, you should not touch the glass bulb,
because fingerprints may burn in, leaving "clouds" on the glass.
Standard bulbs and halogen lamps do not contain
environmentally damaging substances and can be disposed of as
household waste
Check your local regulations to ensure correct disposal
HELLA recommends replacing both lamps when one has blown

XENON: FOR MORE POWER
| 1918
For more than a hundred years, HELLA has been a technological
leader for drivers who want to be sure they can see and be seen.
Modern xenon technology is a proven milestone for both driving
safety and comfort. With a color temperature of 4,300 K, twice
the brightness of halogen lamps and with around three times
their luminous efficacy, the white light of these new generation
xenon lamps ensures safety and relaxed driving.
The newly developed HELLA Xenon +30 lamps have a color
temperature of up to 5000 K, which is almost as much as
modern vehicles' extremely white LED daytime running lights,
offering maximum illumination and visibility similar to daylight.
