Product Overview
Osram HQI-R 150 W/NDL/FO POWERSTAR Metal Halide Focusing Reflector Lamp - 150W 95V, 4200K CRI 85, 2-Pin Base, 9,000hr Life, For Enclosed Fiber-Optic Light Guide Luminaires
The Osram HQI-R 150 W/NDL/FO is an Osram POWERSTAR HQI-R metal halide lamp with an integral focusing reflector, built for fiber-optic light guide systems. It is rated at 150W / 95V, runs at 4200K neutral white (NDL) with a CRI (Ra) of 85, and is rated for 9,000 hours average life.
This lamp should be selected by matching the Osram product code, wattage, base type, and burning position to the installed fiber-optic illuminator or fixture. Per Osram’s datasheet, this lamp is intended for enclosed luminaires (see Safety & Installation Guidelines below for an important flag on this point) — confirm compatibility before ordering.

Product Overview
Osram’s POWERSTAR HQI-R lamps combine quartz metal halide technology with a compact integral reflector optimized for coupling into fiber-optic light guides and small-aperture optical systems. The UV filter keeps UV output significantly below the IEC 61167 permitted threshold, and the design allows simple relamping with optimum optical adjustment and low thermal load on the light guide.

Key Features
- POWERSTAR quartz metal halide technology with an integral focusing reflector for compact, high-efficiency optical systems.
- 4200K neutral white (NDL) light color at CRI (Ra) 85.
- UV output significantly below the IEC 61167 permitted threshold, thanks to an integrated UV filter.
- Low thermal load on the light guide, with simple relamping and optimum optical adjustment.
Compatible Applications
- Fiber-optic light guide systems (confirmed area of application per Osram datasheet)
- Compact optical/illuminator systems requiring a focusing reflector lamp
- General illustrative uses for this lamp type include retail displays, foyers/reception areas, and museum/exhibition accent lighting — these are not listed on this specific Osram datasheet and should be confirmed against the fixture manufacturer’s documentation.
Before Ordering Verify
- Lamp Designation: Confirm the fixture calls for Osram HQI-R 150 W/NDL/FO specifically (not the single-ended HQI-SE family, which is a different lamp type).
- Wattage & Voltage: Confirm the illuminator/ballast is rated for 150W at 95V.
- Base Type: This datasheet specifies only a "2 pins" base designation — confirm the exact pin/socket type (e.g. G12 or a specific connector) against the existing lamp or fixture documentation before ordering.
- Burning Position: Confirm the fixture orientation matches the rated p15 burning position.
- Enclosed Luminaire Requirement: See the flagged note in Safety & Installation Guidelines below regarding an inconsistency in Osram’s own datasheet on this point — verify with Osram or the fixture manufacturer before installing in a non-enclosed fixture.
Safety & Installation Guidelines
- Enclosed Luminaire Flag: This Osram datasheet is internally inconsistent on enclosure requirements: its "Areas of application" section states "Approved only for use in enclosed luminaires," while its Capabilities table separately states "Enclosed luminaire required: No." Both statements are reported here exactly as printed. Confirm the correct requirement with Osram or the fixture manufacturer before installation — this is a safety/compliance matter, not just a spec preference.
- Outdoor Use: Per the datasheet, outdoor applications are permitted only in suitable luminaires rated for outdoor/enclosed use.
- Mercury Content: Contains 23.0 mg mercury — dispose of per local regulations (www.lamprecycle.org or 1-800-555-0050).
- UV Exposure: Use only in fixtures with adequate shielding; a damaged or broken outer envelope should not be operated.
- Qualified Installation: Install and service only with power disconnected, following applicable electrical codes.
