Product Overview
The Sylvania 20198 is part of the PENTRON HO XL High Output Extended Life ECOLOGIC lineup, built on the 5/8" diameter T5 miniature bi-pin platform. ECOLOGIC® designates Sylvania's reduced-mercury-dose fluorescent formulation, and this lamp is rated at 45,000 hours average life on 3-hour starts (up to 60,000 hours on 12-hour starts), with 4100K color temperature and 85 CRI for consistent, accurate color rendering.
Lumen output is rated at two ambient temperatures – 4,450 lumens at 25°C/77°F and 5,000 lumens at 35°C/95°F – since T5 fluorescent output varies with the operating temperature inside the fixture. Use the 35°C figure for enclosed or high-ambient-temperature fixtures.
