Additional Information

– Mean lumens are measured at 40% of rated life. – Initial lumens measured after 100 hours of operation. – OCTRON lamps must be used only with magnetic rapid start or electronic instant/programmed start ballasts designed for T8 operation (265 mA). – SUPERSAVER® lamps require ballasts with ≥550V RMS open circuit voltage. – Life ratings are based on 3-hour cycles; longer cycles extend lamp life.

Operating Considerations:
– Not recommended for use with low power factor ballasts, inverter emergency systems (unless rated), or remotely ballasted fixtures below 550V. – At ambient temperatures below 60°F, striations or reduced brightness may occur but will resolve under normal conditions.
