Product Overview
The Sylvania 54265 is a metal halide lamp in the HMI Metal Halide family, built for professional applications where this exact ordering code, wattage, and voltage are specified by the fixture or equipment manufacturer. Metal halide lamps of this type are precision components – the arc gap, base configuration, and operating position requirements are engineered for a specific fixture design and are not generally interchangeable with other wattages or ordering codes in the same family.
Operating position for this lamp is specified as p30. Rated for 500 hours of average life, this lamp should only be installed in equipment that explicitly calls for the Sylvania 54265 or its HMI 2500 W/DXS ordering abbreviation.
Compatible Applications
- Professional fixtures and equipment specified for the Sylvania 54265 (HMI 2500 W/DXS)
- HMI Metal Halide applications requiring 2500W at 115V
- Replacement in existing installations that call for this exact ordering code
Before Ordering – Verify
- Confirm your equipment specifies the Sylvania 54265, ordering abbreviation HMI 2500 W/DXS
- Confirm supply voltage is 115V and current type match your equipment
- Confirm operating position is rated for p30 – short-arc and metal halide lamps are position-sensitive and can fail prematurely or unsafely if mounted incorrectly
- Confirm the base connection (SFa21) matches your fixture's socket
Safety and Handling Guidelines
