Product Overview
The Sylvania 41035 LED17HIDRA21UNV500MED is a Type B ballast-bypass LED lamp designed to directly replace a 50w hid metal halide / 100w incandescent lamp in bollard, post top, and indoor low bay fixtures. The existing fixture must be rewired to bypass the ballast — this lamp operates directly on line voltage (120-277VAC) once bypass wiring is complete, eliminating ongoing ballast maintenance and replacement costs.
This lamp delivers instant-on operation with full light output and stable color from the moment it’s energized, unlike HID sources which require a warm-up period to reach full brightness and can take several minutes to restrike after a power interruption. The passive cooling design (no internal fan) is intended to improve long-term reliability versus actively-cooled LED HID replacements, since there’s no fan component subject to mechanical wear. The 360° omnidirectional beam closely matches the light pattern of the traditional A-line HID lamp it replaces, supporting compatibility with existing fixture reflectors and optics.
This lamp is rated for use in both open and enclosed fixtures, and is built for outdoor exposure to temperature extremes within its rated ambient range — though it should not be directly exposed to water despite its IP64 rating.
Compatible Applications
- Bollard lighting — Outdoor pathway and landscape bollard fixtures using A-line HID lamps.
- Post top fixtures — Decorative and area post-top luminaires using HID or incandescent A-line lamps.
- Indoor low bay lighting — Commercial and industrial low-bay fixtures where omnidirectional output and instant-on operation are beneficial.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Ballast Bypass Required: The existing fixture must be rewired to bypass the ballast — this is a Type B lamp, not a plug-and-play ballast-compatible retrofit.
- Input Voltage: Confirm your circuit falls within 120–277V.
- Existing Lamp Wattage: Confirm you are replacing a 50w hid metal halide / 100w incandescent lamp.
- Color Temperature: Confirm 5000K is correct — this 17W/A21 lamp is currently offered only in 5000K per the manufacturer ordering guide — no 3000K or 4000K version of item 41035 exists in this wattage/shape.
- Dimming: This lamp is not dimmable — do not connect to any dimming control.
- Physical Fit: Verify fixture size before installation.
- Water Exposure: Should not be directly exposed to water despite IP64 rating; confirm fixture provides adequate weather protection for your specific installation.
- Case Quantity: Minimum order quantity is 6 units (1 case).
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Disconnect power before installing or servicing.
- Ballast Bypass Wiring Required: Fixture must be rewired to bypass the ballast per the included installation manual — see manual for wiring options.
- Not for Use with Dimmers: Do not connect to any dimming circuit.
- Water Exposure: Should not be directly exposed to water.
- Lamp Holder Condition: Ensure lamp holders/sockets are in good operating condition before installation; replace if any defects are detected.
- Code Compliance: Install and operate in compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), UL requirements, and all applicable codes and regulations.
- Do Not Alter Enclosures: Do not make or alter any open holes in wiring or electrical component enclosures during installation.
Compliance
- cULus Listed, RoHS compliant, complies with FCC Part 15 (Class B).
- Lead-free and mercury-free — no mercury-related state shipping restrictions apply.
- 5-year limited warranty.
