Linear fluorescent tubes produce a more diffused light and together with their high efficiency levels makes them ideal for applications in large open spaces such as offices, warehouses and public buildings.
Halophosphate or Triphosphor?
Standard fluorescent tubes use a halophosphate coating which is less expensive to produce and therefore is a consideration when a low initial cost is the most important factor. However more and more tubes are now sold with a Triphosphor coating as they provide a higher quality colour rendering and significant energy savings. Both are available from Stearn Electric.
How can the performance of a tube be improved?
The life of a fluorescent tube can be adversely affected by excessive switching, variable temperature conditions and the use of low quality ballast units (electronic ballasts are recommended). Limiting any or all of these conditions will enhance the life and performance of the fluorescent tube.
Features include
• Excellent colour reproduction• Available in a range of white colours from warm white to cool white• Available in a variety of lengths, wattages and diameters from the traditional 11/2 inch (38mm) diameter T12 version, to the current most popular size of 1 inch (26mm) diameter T8 version, through to the new technology 5/8th inch (16mm) diameter T5 range and the 7mm ultra slim T2 range
Stearn Electric are a distributor of many of the leading brands and whilst most are known by the suppliers name e.g Crompton, Sylvania etc there are some brand names used especially with Triphosphor tubes most notably Osram Lumilux and GE Polylux Tubes. If you have abrand specific enquiry please let the Stearn member of staff know and they will endeavour to help.
