GE Linear Fluorescent Products A choice of lamps that feature top performance, offering you excellent opportunities to upgrade your lighting for higher light output, high color rendering and
shatter protection.
High Output Lamps produce about 45% more initial lumens than Slimline lamps of the same size.
SP lamps provide higher light output and improved color.
GE T8 High Output Lamps use 38% fewer watts than standard F96CW/HO systems while providing
92% of the light output. With a 2-lamp system, you save $171.00 in energy costs (@ .10 per KWH).
50% longer life extends the relamping cycle, reducing lamp replacement and maintenance costs.
GE Very High Output Lamps are used for even higher light output in cold weather.
GE All Weather Lamps offer top performance in outdoor applications. Where severe
or continued low temperatures (down to -20F/29C) and/or high winds are common, use
T10 or T10J (Jacketed) lamps for better light output than T12 or T12 J.
In still air environments, T12 and T12J products offer equal or superior lumen performance.
GE Cov-R-Guard fluorescent lamps are wrapped in a full 15-mil thick casing of polycarbonate
plastic, which effectively contains the glass fragments and phosphors if the lamp is broken.
GE offers a complete line of High Output Ballasts which start down to -20F (0F
for T8 systems). See GE Ballast Catalogs for more information.
