Note:
Best practice suggests grow lamps to be replaced at maximum
40% of their rated average life in order to maintain same level of
growth-light on plants over time.
* The micromol value expresses the amount of light particles (pho-
tons) between 400 and 700 nm that are sent out by a light source
(=Photosynthetic Photon Flux) per second.The amount that the plant
absorbs determines the rate of photosynthesis and as a result the
rate of plant growth.Therefore, the micromol value is also called
“growth-light.” In general, an increase of 22% in growth-light means an
increase of 22% in plant growth.
1) 97% Lumen maintenance at 10% of rated average life. 93% lumen
maintenance at 40% of rated average life.
2) Rated average life is the life obtained, on average, from large
representative groups of lamps in laboratory tests under controlled
conditions at 10 or more operating hours per start. It is based on
survival of at least 50% of the lamps and allows for individual lamps
or groups of lamps to vary considerably from the average.
3) Measured at 100 hrs. life. Approximate lumen values listed are for
vertical and horizontal operation of the lamp.
4) Approximate lumen output at 40% of lamp rated average life.
5) Electrically insulated support for bulb may be required, especially in
horizontal and nearly horizontal operating positions.
6) Follow fixture manufacturer recommendations regarding proximity
of ballast to bulb.
7) This lamp should be shielded from moisture to prevent breakage.
8) Fixtures should be designed so that sockets and wiring withstand
starting pulse up to 5000 volts for 1000 watts and WHITE SON
®
types and 4000 volts for other sizes.
9) For use in fixtures which do not redirect a substantial portion of the
energy toward the arc tube; otherwise very early failure is anticipated.
10) Operates at rated output on ANSI 430W S145 SON AGRO ballasts.
11) UV filtered design (FadeBlock
™
).
12) Nickel plated brass base.
13) Heat resisting glass bulb.

There are several ways in which artificial light can be used to improve and accelerate growth and extend
the growing season of commercial crops:
1
To supplement natural daylight and raise growth light levels in order to enhance photosynthesis and
thereby improve growth and quality of plants in greenhouses (supplemental growth light)
2
To control the light period by extending the natural day length with artificial light (photoperiodic lighting)
3
To totally replace daylight with artificial light for ultimate climate control (cultivation without daylight)
