Product Overview
The Sylvania F24T12/CW is a T12 Slimline fluorescent lamp for instant start fluorescent fixtures. The Slimline designation indicates a single-pin base — this lamp requires a compatible instant start ballast and will not operate in preheat or rapid start fixtures with bi-pin sockets. At 4200K cool white with 1,150 initial lumens and 7,500-hour rated life, it is well suited for general commercial, industrial, and utility lighting applications where standard output and long service intervals are the priority.
Compatible Applications
- Commercial and industrial fluorescent fixtures — Direct replacement in 2-foot T12 Slimline single-pin instant start fixtures.
- Retail, warehouse, and utility lighting — General-purpose commercial lighting in fixtures designed for T12 Slimline lamps.
- Retrofit and maintenance replacement — Verify single-pin base type and instant start ballast compatibility before ordering.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Base Type: Confirm the fixture uses a single-pin Slimline base — not the standard bi-pin (G13) base used in most T12 lamps. Slimline and standard T12 bases are not interchangeable.
- Wattage: Confirm the fixture and ballast are rated for 21W.
- Ballast Compatibility: This lamp requires a compatible instant start ballast rated for T12 Slimline lamps.
- Physical Fit: Confirm 22" MOL and 1.5" T12 diameter fit your fixture.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Correct Ballast Required: Use only with a compatible instant start T12 Slimline ballast. Incorrect ballast type will cause lamp failure.
- Allow Cooling: Allow lamps and fixtures to cool before servicing or relamping.
- Mercury Content: Contains mercury. Do not dispose of in regular trash. Recycle through an approved lamp recycling program in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
Compliance
- Contains mercury — subject to applicable lamp recycling and disposal regulations. California, Washington, and other states may have mandatory take-back or handling fee requirements.
- Verify RoHS compliance status and additional certifications with the Sylvania manufacturer specification sheet prior to use in regulated installations.
