Description
New item introduced within the past year.
Item will be discontinued when inventory is depleted.
QUICK60+
Rating given for 200mA operation.
This fluorescent lamp generates radiant energy which is most beneficial for plant propagation and enhances vegetative and reproductive
growth of many plants for home and commercial use.
This lamp or ballast meets minimum Federal efficiency standards.
This ECOLOGIC
ulations may vary; check local and state regulations.
This lamp is a High Color Rendering Lamp
Product is Canadian Standards Association approved for the Canadian market
Product is Underwriters Laboratories listed
Description
Approximate initial lumens after 100 hours operation.
The life ratings of fluorescent lamps are based on 3 hr. burning cycles under specified conditions and with ballast meeting ANSI specifica-
tions. If burning cycle is increased, there will be a corresponding increase in the average hours life.
Rule of Thumb for Compact Fluorescent Lamps: Divide wattage of incandescent lamp by 4 to determine approximate wattage of compact flu-
orescent lamp that will provide similar light output.
Minimum starting temperature: CF5: -22 degrees F; CF7: -4 degrees F; CF9: 14 degrees F; CF13DS: 14 degrees F; CF13DD: -4 degrees F;
CF18DD: 5 degrees F; CF18DT: -4 degrees F; CF26: 14 degrees F.
2 pin CF lamps should never be installed in 4 pin sockets regardless if lamp will fit.

CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 1 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
0.3 meters (12 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.2m (8 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
Minimum starting temperature is a function of the ballast; consult the ballast manufacturer.
There is a NEMA supported, industry issue where T2, T4, and T5 fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps operated on high frequency bal-
lasts may experience an abnormal end-of-life phenomenon. This end-of-life phenomenon can result in one or both of the following: 1. Bulb
wall cracking near the lamp base. 2. The lamp can overheat in the base area and possibly melt the base and socket. NEMA recommends that
high frequency compact fluorescent ballasts have an end-of-life shutdown circuit which will safely and reliably shut down the system in the
rare event of an abnormal end-of-life failure mode described above. The final requirements of this system are yet to be defined by ANSI. For
additional information refer to NEMA papers on their WEBSITE at www.NEMA.org.
This 4-pin DULUX
This lamp was designed for use with high frequency ballasts that do not have their own end-of-life (lamp) sensing circuits, but it is also com-
patible with high frequency ballasts that have their own end-of-life (lamp) sensing circuits.
Lumen output and life rated on high frequency operation.
Amalgam compact fluorescent lamps provide at least 90% light output from 40-140 degrees F. Non-amalgam compact fluorescent lamps
provide at least 90% light output from 60-100 degrees F in the base up position, the temperature range is narrower for horizontal or base
down.
These lamps may also be operated on rapid start circuits. On rapid start circuits the 24 watt lamp operates at 27 watts and the 36 watt lamp
operated at 39 watts. Rated lamp life is unchanged.
Lumen output rated on high frequency operation. 60 HZ operation would result in lower lumen output.
