Application
· For use in indoor applications with room temperatures above 20 °C (which implies temperature around the lamp of over 25-35 °C)
· Primary focus on offices, schools and hospitals; secondary focus on retail, industry, supermarkets
· Not recommended under the following conditions:
with air flow around the lamps
in luminaires with active air handling (lamp temperature will not be the required 25-35 °C, but room temperature)
in open luminaires/battens very close to air conditioning outlets or cold air flows
in space above freezers (temperature may easily drop below 20 °C)
in combination with VRUs (voltage reduction units)
