Product information
T5 LongLast™ lamps are triphosphor fluorescent lamps with
16mm outer diameter (5/8 of an inch). These lamps feature
“Starcoat™ Technology” that delivers high quality triphosphor
performance. GE produces two ranges of T5 LongLast™
lamps in 4 different lengths:
• High Efficiency offering high lumens per watt
• High Output offering improved lumen package

High Efficiency lamps


The High Efficiency range of T5 LongLast™ brings lumen
efficacy up to 105 lm/W. Combined with an extremely Features
long service life, this range of lamps is ideally suited for
• High efficiency – up to 105 lumens per watt – for ongoing
commercial and retail application in both direct and
cost savings
combined direct/indirect luminaires.
• High lumen output – up to 7,000 lumens – for improved
system efficacy and reduced number of fittings
High Output lamps • Very long and reliable product life – up to 36,000 hours

Influence of ambient air temperature on light output


T5 LongLast™ lamps are designed to reach their maximum luminous flux at an ambient air temperature of 35°C under reference
conditions. The light output and the electrical characteristics of a low-pressure mercury vapour lamp are determined by the
saturated mercury vapour pressure inside the tube. As the cold spot is near the metal cap, the cap temperature is a good
indication how close the Hg vapour pressure is to the optimum. A cap temperature of approx. 43-45°C corresponds to conditions
resulting in maximum light output in a stabilized T5 lamp. The mercury vapour pressure is related to the temperature of the so
called cold spot, the coldest part of the lamp where the excess liquid mercury is deposited. The cold spot is behind the electrode
on the monogrammed side in a T5 lamp. The diagram below shows the typical relative luminous output of a long T5 lamp as
function of ambient air temperature in horizontal burning position under reference conditions. Please note, burning position, air
flow, radiating heat sources, characteristics of the control gear, etc. also affect the thermal conditions.

Lamp life and lumen maintenance


Cathodes of a fluorescent lamp lose their electron-emissivity during life due to various degradation processes like evaporation
and sputtering. When the deterioration reaches a certain level, the cathode fails. Typical lifetime characteristics given below
are based on GE Lighting’s data. The declared lamp life is the median life defined by the time when 50% of the lamps from
a large sample batch would have failed. Real lifetime figures may depend on the actual application. For instance improper
cathode preheat, too high operating current, or too low operating current without additional cathode heating might reduce the
expected life. The lumen maintenance graph below shows the luminous output throughout life. The main causes of the light
depreciation are deterioration of phosphor coating and lamp blackening due to the deposition of evaporated emission mixture
on the glass tube. These effects are unavoidable. Service life is reached when the light level in an installation drops down to
80% of the initial value. The service life curve is drawn as the product of the survival and the lumen maintenance curves.

Recommendations for measuring T5 LongLast™ lamps


For initial readings, the lamps shall be aged for 100 hours. Before measurement, conditioning is also required. Conditioning is
completed when the excess mercury has been collected at the cold spot. Such conditioning may take up to 20 hours which
can be part of the 100 hour aging. Avoid touching the hot glass surface, rotating or shaking the lamp. During handling and
transportation keep the cold chamber (monogrammed side) at the lowest point. If the lamps are switched off for more than
12 hours, they shall be burnt for at least 4 additional hours with cold chamber down. Place the lamp into the test system in
horizontal position.
Before measuring the luminous flux, the lamp shall be continuously burnt for one hour. Stability shall be checked by monitoring the
luminous flux. The measured luminous flux can be considered stable if the relative change is less than 0.5% over a 5 minute period.

5
Dimming
Dimming is done by the control of the discharge current. In dimming mode, the optimum cathode temperature shall be
maintained by additional cathode heating current. All GE T5 lamps are given a seasoning burn-in at the end of the
assembly line. This is sufficient cathode preparation for dimming, no additional burn-in at full power is required before using
the lamp for the first time.
Please note that after transportation and installation, the mercury is scattered in the tube. For stabilized operation, the excess
mercury should be migrated to the cold spot. This may take up to 20 hours of full-power operation. The stabilization time
becomes even longer if the lamps are dimmed.

Emergency operation
In emergency operation, lamps are typically underdriven running at low power. To save battery life, emergency inverters may
not apply additional cathode heating which would be necessary to maintain the proper cathode temperature.
Such unfavourable conditions result in accelerated blackening and shorter life over a longer period in emergency mode.
In a typical application, the emergency lighting system is tested for a short period on a regular basis. The cummulative impact
on lamp life can generally be considered low.
