WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for Ceramalux ® High Pressure Sodium Lamps
Warnings, Cautions and Operating Instructions
WARNING: These lamps must be operated in fixtures
designed for use with High Pressure Sodium lamps. The
fixture wattage rating must match the wattage
indicated on the outer glass bulb. Do not scratch the
outer bulb or subject it to pressure as this could cause
the outer bulb to crack or shatter. A partial vacuum in the
outer bulb may cause glass to fly if the glass is struck.
Operating the lamp improperly may result in
PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE,
BURNS AND FIRE.
1. If the outer glass bulb is broken, shut off power
immediately and remove the lamp after it has cooled.
2. Use only auxiliary equipment meeting Philips
and/or ANSI standards. Use within voltage limits
recommended by ballast manufacturer.
A. Operate lamp only within specified limits
of operation.
B. For total supply load refer to ballast manufacturers
electrical data.
3. Protect lamp base, socket and wiring against moisture,
corrosive atmospheres and excessive heat.
4. Replace the lamp if the outer glass bulb has been
scratched, cracked or damaged in any way.
5. If a lamp bulb support is used, be sure to insulate
the support electrically so as to avoid possible
decomposition of the bulb glass.
6. Do not use this lamp in a fixture which redirects a
substantial portion of the energy toward the arc tube
and its immediate vicinity, as this may lead to very early
lamp failure.
7. Take care in handling and disposing of lamps. If arc
tube is broken, avoid skin contact with any of the
contents or fragments.
8. The arc tube of this lamp contains sodium and
mercury. Dispose of in accordance with federal,
state and local requirements.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for Mercury Vapor Lamps
Warnings, Cautions and Operating Instructions
“WARNING: This lamp can cause serious skin
R burn and eye inflammation from shortwave ultraviolet
radiation if outer envelope of the lamp is broken or
punctured. Do not use where people will remain for more
than a few minutes unless adequate shielding or other
safety precautions are used. Lamps that will automatically
extinguish when the outer envelope is broken or punctured
are commercially available.” This lamp complies with FDA
radiation performance standard 21 CFR subchapter J.
(USA:21CFR 1040.30 Canada:SOR/DORS/80-381)
WARNING: The following GOOD LAMP PRACTICES
are recommended to reduce the possibility of an arc tube
rupture and the associated risk of property damage or
personal injury.
1. TURN LAMPS OFF AT LEAST ONCE PER WEEK
FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES, in systems which are
otherwise operating on a continuous basis
(24 hours/day-7 days/week).
2. RELAMP FIXTURES AT OR BEFORE END OF RATED
LIFE. Allowing such lamps to operate until they fail is
not advised and may increase the possibility of inner
arc tube rupture.
3. OPERATE LAMP WITH PROPER CIRCUITS AND
AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION: Electric discharge lamp—use only with
proper circuits and auxiliary equipment designed to
produce established electrical values for this lamp.
Operating the lamp improperly may result in damage to
equipment or personal injury, for which the lamp
manufacturer does not assume any responsibility.
If a lamp bulb support is used, be sure to insulate the
support electrically to avoid possible decomposition
of the bulb glass. Do not scratch the bulb or subject
it to pressure, as it could fail violently. If the outer bulb is
broken, turn off the lamp and replace it promptly.
Do not use this lamp in a fixture which redirects a
substantial portion of the energy toward the arc tube
and its immediate vicinity, as this may lead to very early
lamp failure.
NOTICE: For total supply load, add auxiliary (ballast)
watts to lamp watts.
