Product Overview
The Sylvania 64274 Metalarc Pro-Tech Powerball is a premium Ceramic Metal Halide PAR30LN reflector lamp combining the efficacy and long life of pulse-start Metal Halide technology with the superior color consistency and CRI of a ceramic arc tube. At CRI 95, this lamp produces near-natural 3000K warm white illumination — one of the highest color rendering ratings available in a PAR30LN CMH format — making it the preferred choice for color-critical retail, gallery, and display applications.
Unlike conventional quartz metal halide lamps, the ceramic arc tube design delivers significantly less color variation from lamp to lamp and maintains color temperature stability over lamp life. The PAR30LN form factor with 30° flood beam spread and 12,000 MBCP allows direct installation into standard PAR30 track heads and recessed fixtures with E26 sockets. The E-type rating qualifies this lamp for use in both open and enclosed fixtures — confirm your fixture is rated for the lamp type before ordering.
Compatible Applications
- Luxury retail and boutique lighting — CRI 95 for accurate rendering of apparel, jewelry, and high-end merchandise displays.
- Art galleries and museums — Near-natural 3000K warm white for artwork and exhibit illumination requiring maximum color fidelity.
- Commercial track and accent lighting — Standard PAR30LN track heads and recessed fixtures in retail, hospitality, and office environments.
- Architectural accent and landscape lighting — Versatile open or enclosed fixture compatibility for exterior and interior architectural applications.
Before Ordering — Verify
- ANSI Code: Confirm the existing ballast is rated C139/E (70W pulse-start CMH). This lamp requires a CMH pulse-start ballast — it will not operate on probe-start MH, HPS, or standard Metal Halide ballasts.
- Wattage: Confirm the fixture and ballast are rated for 70W.
- Base Type: Confirm the socket matches E26 Medium Screw.
- Beam Spread: Confirm 30° flood is appropriate for your application.
- Physical Fit: Confirm 4.76" MOL and 3.75" diameter fit within your fixture.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- UV Radiation Warning: These lamps can cause serious skin burn and eye inflammation from short-wave ultraviolet radiation if the outer envelope is broken or punctured. Do not use where people will remain for more than a few minutes unless adequate shielding or other safety precautions are used. This lamp complies with FDA radiation performance standard 21 CFR 1040.30 (USA) and SOR/DORS/80-381 (Canada).
- Do not operate with broken outer envelope — the inner arc tube emits intense UV radiation without the protective outer lamp envelope.
- Pulse-Start CMH Ballast Required: Use only with a compatible CMH pulse-start ballast rated for ANSI C139/E.
- Mercury Content: Contains mercury. Do not dispose of in regular trash. Recycle through an approved lamp recycling program in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
- Allow Cooling: Allow the lamp to cool fully before handling or removal.
Compliance
- Complies with FDA radiation performance standard 21 CFR Subchapter J, 21 CFR 1040.30 (USA) and SOR/DORS/80-381 (Canada).
- Contains mercury — subject to applicable lamp recycling and disposal regulations. California, Washington, and other states may have mandatory take-back or handling fee requirements.
- Verify RoHS compliance status with the Sylvania manufacturer specification sheet prior to use in regulated installations.
