The MASTER PL-C 2-pin range of lamps forms part of
the compact fluorescent nonintegrated family of lamps.
Compact long-arc low-pressure mercury discharge lamp with
a clear glass envelope consisting of four parallel narrow
fluorescent tubes welded together at the bottom and near
the ends.
It has a two-pin base with a housing incorporating
the special instant starter and capacitor.
It is equipped with two preheated tungsten electrodes and filled
with a mixture of saturated mercury vapour and an inert buffer gas.
For operation on AC mains supply via a conventional ballast.
Dimming is not possible.
The lamp characteristics are influenced by
operating conditions and control gear used.
A radio-interference suppression capacitor is installed.
The lamp performance is strongly governed by
the temperature of the coolest spot, which is influenced by
the lamp position.
MASTER PL-C is a breakthrough in compact fluorescent lighting.
By making use of the unique Philips-invented bridge technology,
light output has been optimised for the relatively high temperatures inside
the luminaire, providing up to 6 % higher system light output.
Furthermore the advanced coating technologies result in 12 % lumen
maintenance improvement at average rated life.
MASTER PL-C lamps contain only 3 mg of mercury.
- General or supplementary lighting in
professional environments or the home.
- Residential and public outdoor lighting,
recessed or surfacemounted downlighters,
wall units, pendant lamps and table lamps.
