Product Overview
The Sylvania 41448 LEDlescent T8 is a high-efficiency Type B retrofit lamp designed to operate without a fluorescent ballast. During installation, the ballast is disconnected from the lamp circuit and line voltage is supplied to opposite ends of the tube using the manufacturer-approved double-ended wiring configuration.
The lamp produces 1,600 lumens from 9.5 watts, providing a manufacturer-listed efficacy of 168 lumens per watt. Its 4100K cool-white output and frosted glass construction support uniform general illumination in compatible commercial, institutional and industrial fixtures.
A built-in safety circuit prevents current from passing through the lamp when only one end is engaged in a socket, reducing potential shock risk during proper installation. The design also works with both shunted and non-shunted G13 lampholders, so a socket replacement is not necessarily required when the existing lampholders are in good condition.
Compatible Applications
- General illumination
- Cove lighting
- High-bay fixtures designed for four-foot T8 lamps
- Parking garages
- Tunnels and underpasses
- Commercial and institutional linear lighting
- Fixtures converted from 32W fluorescent T8 lamps
- Occupancy-sensor-controlled lighting systems
Before Ordering – Verify
- Product number: Confirm Sylvania NAED 41448.
- Ordering abbreviation: Verify LED9.5T8L48/FG/841/BFG2.
- Installation type: This is a Type B ballast-bypass lamp, not a Type A plug-and-play tube.
- Wiring configuration: This lamp uses double-ended wiring. Follow the LEDVANCE installation diagram exactly.
- Ballast removal: The fluorescent ballast must be disconnected from the lamp circuit.
- Voltage: Confirm the branch circuit is within 120–277V.
- Lampholders: Verify the G13 sockets are undamaged and suitable for continued use.
- Shunted sockets: Both shunted and non-shunted sockets are supported for the specified double-ended wiring configuration.
- Dimming: Use only an approved dimmer and follow the manufacturer’s wiring requirements. The datasheet identifies the Lutron NTELV-300 as tested and approved.
- Mixed lamps: Do not install LED and fluorescent lamps in the same fixture.
- Fixture enclosure: The lamp may be used behind a lens or diffuser but is not approved for vapor-tight or sealed luminaires.
- Location: Suitable for dry and damp locations but must not come into direct contact with water.
- Dimensions: Confirm the fixture accepts a tube approximately 47.72 inches long and 1.02 inches in diameter.
- Temperature: Keep operation within -20°C to 45°C.
- Packaging: One lamp per SKU and 25 lamps per case.
Safety and Installation Guidelines
- Ballast-bypass wiring is required. This lamp must be installed according to the LEDVANCE Type B wiring instructions.
- Disconnect and lock out electrical power before inspection, wiring, installation or removal.
- The fluorescent ballast must be disconnected from the lamps.
- If the ballast remains physically inside the fixture, cap all unused ballast wires individually.
- Do not expose wiring to sharp sheet-metal edges or other abrasive surfaces.
- Do not drill or alter open holes in wiring or electrical-component enclosures during installation.
- Do not install LED lamps and fluorescent lamps in the same fixture.
- Verify all lampholders and wiring connections are in good condition.
- Affix the manufacturer-supplied luminaire warning label to the fixture to maintain the retrofit safety identification.
- Confirm the correct double-ended electrical connections before restoring power.
- Use only in dry or damp locations without direct water exposure.
- Do not use in vapor-tight or sealed luminaires.
- Installation should be performed by qualified electrical personnel in accordance with the NEC and applicable codes.
