ADL Supply Expert Application & Replacement Guide
The F40T8 ALTO is a 5-foot T8 used in high-traffic commercial spaces. The previous listing notes an 85 CRI for better color vibrancy than standard 700-series T8 lamps, and Energy Star qualification.
ALTO lamps use Philips' low-mercury design and are TCLP compliant. Philips rates life at up to 42,000 hours depending on the ballast type and starting cycle.
T8 lamps have a 1-inch (26 mm) tube. T8 and T12 lamps share the same G13 base, so the base alone will not tell you which type your fixture uses; match the wattage, length and lamp code printed on the end of the lamp you are replacing.
