High Pressure Sodium lamps are one of the most efficient HID sources available<br />
today. <strong>The</strong>se lamps are used for general lighting applications where high<br />
efficiency <strong>and</strong> long life are desired while color rendering is not critical. Typical<br />
applications include street lighting, parking lot lighting, building floodlighting<br />
<strong>and</strong> general area lighting.<br />
LUMALUX PLUS ® / ECO ® AND LUMALUX PLUS ® — <strong>The</strong>se environmentally<br />
friendlier lamps contain significantly less Mercury than st<strong>and</strong>ard high pressure<br />
sodium lamps. <strong>The</strong>y will not cycle at the end of life <strong>and</strong> are rated for 30,000<br />
hours life. All lamps operate on existing high pressure sodium ballasts.<br />
LUMALUX Plus / ECO lamps are designed with lead-free bases <strong>and</strong> they pass<br />
the existing Federal TCLP limits.*<br />

LUMALUX ® AND LUMALUX / ECO — Available in a broad range of wattages, in<br />
both clear <strong>and</strong> coated configurations, LUMALUX <strong>and</strong> LUMALUX / ECO lamps<br />
are ideal for a variety of applications. LUMALUX medium based lamps are<br />
available in wattages ranging from 35-150 watts while mogul based lamps are<br />
offered in 50-1000 watts. <strong>The</strong> mogul based LUMALUX / ECO lamps operate<br />
on st<strong>and</strong>ard high pressure sodium ballasts <strong>and</strong> pass the Federal TCLP test.*<br />
LUMALUX STANDBY — <strong>The</strong>se lamps are designed with two arc tubes to provide<br />
instant restrike capability in the event of a momentary power interruption.<br />
With almost twice the life of st<strong>and</strong>ard high pressure sodium lamps, LUMALUX<br />
St<strong>and</strong>by lamps are a great way to reduce maintenance costs.<br />

WARNING<br />
LUMALUX, LUMALUX / ECO, LUMALUX PLUS / ECO, AND LUMALUX STANDBY LAMPS<br />
THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE COMPLIED WITH TO AVOID RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE AND POOR LAMP PERFORMANCE.<br />
I. OPERATE WITH COMPATIBLE BALLAST AND FIXTURE ONLY:<br />
This lamp must be operated in a fixture <strong>and</strong> ballast which has an ANSI designation identical to that found on the lamp outer glass bulb. (with the exception of the<br />
LU/PLUS on Cooper ignitor 220C173G11, which may have compatibility issues).<br />
II.<br />
ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND BURN HAZARD:<br />
Do not remove or insert lamp when power is on. If outer glass bulb is broken, shut off power immediately <strong>and</strong> remove lamp after it has cooled.<br />
III. INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:<br />
See catalog for specific operating parameters.<br />
1. A specially designed socket which is electrically rated to withst<strong>and</strong> a 4000 volt pulse is required for all High Pressure Sodium lamps except for the 750 <strong>and</strong><br />
1000 watt lamps which require a socket rated to withst<strong>and</strong> a 5000 volt pulse.<br />
2. <strong>The</strong>se lamps have a vacuum jacket <strong>and</strong> may implode if broken. For added safety, wear safety glasses <strong>and</strong> gloves when installing or removing lamps.<br />
3. To avoid burn injury, allow lamp to cool before removing from fixture.<br />
4. Screw lamp firmly but not forcibly into socket to avoid breakage.<br />
5. Replace lamps at or before end of rated life. (See catalog for rated life.)<br />
6. Never install it into an ordinary household socket.<br />
7. This lamp may be operated in any position.<br />
IV. PROPER CARE AND MAINTENANCE:<br />
To reduce the possibility of a rupture <strong>and</strong> premature lamp failure:<br />
1. Do not use with luminaires which would cause an excessive increase in arc-tube operating voltage.<br />
2. Do not expose operating lamp to moisture (such as, rain, sleet or snow).<br />
3. Replace lamp if outer glass bulb has been scratched, cracked, or damaged in any way.<br />
4. Electrically insulate any metal support in contact with the outer glass bulb to avoid glass decomposition.<br />
V. BROKEN ARC-TUBE: Take care in h<strong>and</strong>ling <strong>and</strong> disposing of this lamp. If arc-tube is broken, avoid skin contact with any of the contents <strong>and</strong> fragments. See<br />
Product Safety Data Sheet for further details.<br />
