1) Approximate initial lumens.The lamp lumen output is based upon lamp performance after 100 hours of operating life, when the output is measured during operation on a reference ballast under standard laborator y conditions. For expected lamp lumen output, commercial ballast manufacturers can advise the appropriate ballast factor for each of their ballasts when they are informed of the designated lamp.The ballast factor is a multiplier applied to the designated lamp lumen output.

2) Design lumens are the approximate lamp lumen output at 40% of the lamp’s rated average life.This output is based upon measurements obtained during lamp operation on a reference ballast under standard laborator y conditions.

3) Average life under specified test conditions with lamps turned off and restarted no more frequently than once ever y 3 operating hours. Lamp life is appreciably longer if lamps are started less frequently.

† This fluorescent lamp is better for the environment because of its reduced mercury content. All fluorescent lamps

contain mercury for effective operation, however, Philips lamps with ALTO®Lamp Technology average 70% less mercury than the 2001 industr y average for fluorescent lamps up to sixty inches which are not TCLP-compliant.
