Product Overview

The Philips SDW-T 100W/LV is part of the WhiteSON family of high-pressure sodium lamps. Unlike conventional high-pressure sodium lamps that produce a strongly amber-colored light, the SDW system is intended to provide a warmer white appearance with improved color rendering.

The lamp produces a nominal 5,000 initial lumens at 2550K with a CRI of 83 according to the supplied listing information. Its light characteristics may be appropriate for compatible retail and commercial lighting systems where warm light and improved product-color appearance are required.

This is not a standard high-pressure sodium replacement lamp. The SDW-T lamp requires control gear and an ignitor specifically designed for the correct Philips SDW system. Matching only the wattage, base, or physical size does not establish electrical compatibility.

Compatible Applications

Retail fixtures specifically designed for Philips SDW-T 100W/LV lamps
Commercial display lighting using compatible WhiteSON control gear
Specialty interior HID fixtures requiring a PG12 base
Maintenance replacement where ANSI S105 or SDW-T 100W/LV is specified
Professional lighting systems requiring approximately 2550K output and improved color rendering

Before Ordering – Verify

Complete lamp designation: Confirm the required lamp is Philips SDW-T 100W/LV.
Product reference: Verify Philips reference 30228-1.
ANSI code: Confirm the fixture or equipment documentation specifies S105.
Wattage: Verify the fixture and control gear are rated for a 100W SDW lamp.
Base: Confirm the socket is designed for a PG12 base.
Control gear: Use only with a ballast and ignitor specifically approved for the SDW-T 100W/LV system.
Do not substitute by wattage: A standard 100W high-pressure sodium, metal-halide, or ceramic metal-halide lamp is not automatically compatible.
Color characteristics: Confirm the application requires approximately 2550K light and an 83 CRI.
Dimensions: Verify the fixture accepts a lamp approximately 5.88 inches long and 1.25 inches in diameter.
Burn position: The supplied listing identifies universal operation, but the fixture and control-gear instructions must still be followed.
Warm-up and restrike: Confirm that HID warm-up and restart delays are acceptable for the application.
