LED lamp directly replaces T8 fluorescent tubes

11 May, 2010

Osram has developed a way to replace T8 36 W fluorescent lamps and control gear with LED technology. T8 Substitute externally resembles a fluorescent tube and can be installed without any changes to the luminaire — except replacing the starter — and achieve energy savings up to 50%.

T8 Substitute lamps have an operating life of up to 50 000 h and achieve illumination that is comparable to that of reflector luminaires. These lamps do not contain any mercury, so they are compliant with RoHS.
