Energy efficiency

Which fluorescent replacement should I choose?

Replacement For T5

Fixture lumen & power stated for medium beam angle for Indline.
Note that you should replace with the same beam angle and IP rating as the existing luminaire has.
Columns referring to mA indicate the product’s system power and fixture lumen at the specified DIP-Switch Power. This is set on the product’s driver.

(1) We have applied the following standard additions to the total power of the light sources to account for driver losses:
T5 HF ballast +10%  |  T8 conventional ballast +30%
(The total power consumption of a luminaire is called system power, i.e. the luminaire’s total power incl. driver losses.)
(2) We have assumed that the fluorescent luminaire has 70% efficiency to calculate fixture lumen based on light source lumen
(3) Provides slightly less light (ok to mark with stars down to 10% less light; beyond that it is not a replacement)
(4) Replacement luminaire 1500 mm long  | 
(5) Replacement luminaire 1800 mm long
(6) Note that this is an insert mounted in an existing fluorescent luminaire by a qualified electrician

Replacement For Compact Fluorescent

Hide-a-lite replacements
Fixture lumen & power stated for 3000K
Note that you should replace with the same beam angle and IP rating as the existing luminaire.
Columns referring to mA indicate the product’s system power and fixture lumen at the specified DIP-Switch Power. This is set on the product’s driver.

(1) We have assumed that the compact fluorescent luminaire has 80% efficiency to calculate fixture lumen based on light source lumen.
(2) We report the luminaire’s system power by applying a standard addition to the total power of the light sources to account for driver losses:
Compact fluorescent: HF ballast +10%
(3) Provides slightly less light.
