1 GE Lighting Biax L DATA SHEET Compact Fluorescent Lamps Non-Integrated 18W, 24W, 34W, 36W, 4W, 55W Product information Biax L covers a range of single ended compact fluorescent lamps with high lumen output and are available in a wide range: 18, 24, 34, 36, 4, 55 watt versions. The single ended design is less than half the length of standard fluorescent lamps. This makes Biax L the ideal choice for modular luminaires. The range is available in colours of 27, 3, 35, 4K and 65K allowing use in most environments. All Biax L lamps have a CRI of 82. The family of Biax L lamps offers a rated life of 15, hours for 18W to 36W and 22,5 hours for 4 and 55W. The 4 and 55W versions are for use on high-frequency electronic gear only. Features Compact, wide range of wattages High lumen package Increased surface brightness enabling improved optical control Excellent colour rendering 82Ra Lamps can be used with dimmable electronic gear and emergency modules Low mercury content Application areas Compact size is ideal for modular luminaries in commercial premises, shops, offices and hotels. Alternative use in non-general lighting applications such as task lights and sign lights. The 34W lamp offers an economical alternative to the 4W from an installation point of view while having the same physical dimensions. It is essential to use suitable electronic gear, or electronic starter when operating the 34W lamp with conventional gear. The 4 watt lamp has been specifically designed for optimum performance when used with high-frequency control gear. The 55 watt lamp offers 4,8 lumens in the same overall length as the 4 watt, ideal for use where higher lumens are required.

Lamp can start and operate at 1% below the rated supply voltage when the correct control gear is used. However, in order to maximise lamp survival, lumen maintenance and colour uniformity the supply voltage and ballast design voltage should be within ±3%. Supply variations of ±5% are permissible for short periods only. This may be achieved by measuring mean supply voltage at the installation and selecting ballasts with appropriate settings Hours/switching Effects of supply voltage variations 12% 11% % 9% Lamp current % 8% Lamp wattage % Operating Voltage % 7% Luminois Flux % 6% 9% 95% % 15% 11% 3

4 Run-up curve Run up curves show the relative light output as the function of time. By definition, warm-up time indicates that time when the luminous output of a lamp reaches 8% of its steady state value. Relative luminous output 14% 12% % 8% 6% 4% 2% % Run-up curve after ignition for 55W lamp Luminous intensity distribution The luminous intensity distribution curve shows the vertical light intensity of Biax L lamps. Emergency application Biax L lamps may be used in suitable emergency applications. They are not recommended for use in applications where the lamp current contains a DC component due to the low mercury content of these lamps. It is essential that emergency lighting luminaries be relamped in accordance with the lamp information supplied with the luminaries and avoid using amalgam lamps unless they are identified as suitable on the label. Effects of temperature changes When installed in a luminaire, the temperature of the air surrounding the lamp cap changes and this can affect the light output of the lamp (cold spot is in the base). The effects of changes in ambient temperature for a typical lamp is plotted on the graph.
