Technical Specifications

Product Overview

The Osram Powerball HCI-T 150W is a high-efficacy ceramic metal halide lamp using Powerball ceramic arc tube technology to deliver very high luminous efficacy (103 lm/W) alongside good to excellent color rendering (CRI 88). The 4200K natural daylight color temperature provides crisp, energizing illumination suited to retail, museum, exhibition, and industrial environments where visual clarity and color accuracy both matter.

UV filter technology reduces ultraviolet output to levels significantly below the maximum thresholds permitted under IEC 61167 — an important safety and product-protection feature for retail display and museum/exhibition applications where UV exposure can damage merchandise, artwork, and textiles over time. Very good color stability over lamp life ensures consistent appearance across multi-lamp installations, which is critical in retail and exhibition spaces using many fixtures in the same visual field.

Compatible Applications

• Shop interiors and shop windows — High-efficacy daylight illumination for retail merchandising.
• Shopping arcades — General commercial area lighting with high color rendering.
• Foyers and reception areas — Daylight CCT for welcoming, high-clarity entrance lighting.
• Museums and exhibitions — UV-filtered output protects sensitive artwork and artifacts while delivering excellent color accuracy.
• Exhibition halls and trade fairs — High-efficacy lighting for large commercial event spaces.
• Factories and workshops — High-efficacy daylight illumination for industrial work environments.

Before Ordering — Verify

• Wattage: Confirm your ballast is rated for 150W CMH operation matching this lamp's ANSI/IEC designation.
• Base Type: Confirm fixture socket accepts G12 Bipin.
• Ballast Compatibility: This lamp requires a CMH ballast specifically matched to its wattage and ANSI code — confirm compatibility before ordering.
• Color Temperature: Confirm 4200K natural daylight is appropriate for your application.
• Order Quantity: Sold 12 per case — call ADL Supply to order less than a full case.

Safety and Handling Guidelines

• CMH Ballast Required: Use only with a compatible ceramic metal halide ballast matched to this lamp's wattage and ANSI code.
• UV and High-Pressure Arc: CMH lamps operate under high internal pressure with UV output, though UV filter technology reduces this significantly. Do not operate if the outer envelope is damaged.
• Allow Warm-Up and Restrike Time: Allow several minutes for full output after starting; allow a cooling period before hot restrike.
• Mercury Content: Contains mercury. Do not dispose of in regular trash. Recycle through an approved lamp recycling program. Visit lamprecycle.org for local options.

Compliance

• UV output significantly below IEC 61167 maximum permitted thresholds.
• Contains mercury — subject to applicable lamp recycling and disposal regulations. This product cannot be shipped to CA, CO, HI, ME, MN, OR, RI, or VT due to state mercury lamp regulations.
• Verify RoHS compliance status with the Osram manufacturer specification sheet prior to use in regulated installations.
