GE G23 Stick Shape CFL Bulb, 7 W, 4000K, Cool White Colour Tone

Biax™ S compact fluorescent lamps can provide savings of up to 73% in energy costs compared to incandescent lamps. Available in 5, 7, 9 and 11 watt ratings, low wattage Biax™ S lamps are ideal for new installations or to replace existing incandescent lamps. These lamps are available in 2700, 3000, 3500, 4000, 5000 and 6500K colour temperatures. The Biax™ S lamps have built-in internal starters. They have a rated average life of 10,000 hours, which results in fewer lamp changes and a reduction in maintenance costs over the life of an installation. The Biax™ S/E lamps are available in 5, 7, 9 and 11 watt ratings. However, the Biax™ S/E lamps have 4-pin caps without built-in capacitors and starters, they are therefore suitable for operation with electronic control gear and can be used for dimming and emergency lighting applications.

The use of separate electronic ballasts makes them suitable for almost every kind of energy supply: high and low voltages, accumulators, batteries, solar cells and systems that can be dimmed.

Typical applications include:
Wall & ceiling luminaires
In hotels, motels, office buildings, apartments
Building, public areas
Ideal for task light applications also
Emergency lighting
Enclosed outdoor fixtures

Flat and compact
High luminous efficacy
Up to 73% energy-saving compared to incandescent lamps
10 times the lamp life of incandescent lamps
Pleasant light, excellent colour rendering.

When the new fluorescent lamp is installed into dimming system, it is advised to operate lamps for period of 100 hours at full light output.

Biax™ S lamps comply with the relevant clauses of all applicable safety and performance specifications including IEC 61199, IEC 60901.
