Product Overview

The Philips Ceramalux Dual Arc-Tube series is designed to eliminate the long "cool down" periods associated with standard HID lamps. By utilizing two arc tubes in parallel, one tube provides light immediately upon power restoration while the other cools. This technology is vital for safety-sensitive areas where sudden darkness could pose a risk. Operating at a warm 2100K color temperature, this HPS lamp delivers the characteristic golden-white light preferred for outdoor security and roadway visibility. The nickel-plated E39 mogul base ensures a corrosion-resistant connection, while the heat-resistant glass envelope allows for dependable performance in extreme environmental conditions.

Instant Restrike Capability: Provides immediate light after a power dip, eliminating the standard 5-15 minute wait time for HID restrikes.
Superior Maintenance Cycles: A 40,000-hour rated life significantly reduces the frequency of high-altitude relamping, lowering total maintenance costs.
Rapid Warm-up: Reaches 80% of full light output within 1-2 minutes of initial startup.
Rugged Construction: Features a reinforced internal mount and nickel-plated base to withstand vibration and outdoor elements.
