e GE is . . . Sports Lighting! Technical Description ★ Sport floodlight’s optical Luminaire Construction—Ultra★ reflectors and electrical components are enclosed and protected in integral, but thermally isolated, heavy-duty aluminum housings. Rear Reflector Housing—The Rear/Primary reflector is housed in a non-corrosive high pressure die-cast aluminum cover hinged to the main housing ring and held shut by four corrosion resistant fasteners.
e Ultra✭Sport Floodlight TM Beam Efficiency = 53% Total Efficiency = 86% Photometric Performance—Traditional sports lighting systems use metal halide lamps with large bulb jackets and mogul base sockets located in the axial center-line of the optical. This lamp design impedes optical efficiency by producing inefficient symmetrical light distributions with too much light in the upper beam.
e GE is . . . Sports Lighting! ★ Sport floodlight Lamp Specification—The Ultra★ takes advantage of metal halide lamp technology, proven by decades of use in all types of lighting application. It uses an advanced generation of lamps specifically designed for use in sports lighting. Offered in a choice of 2000, 1500 or 1000 watts, these white light sources feature a double-ended design without an outer bulb, and provide an average rated life of 3000, 6000 and 10,000 hours, respectively.
e Ultra✭Sport Floodlight TM ★ Sport floodlights feature the new Ballast System—All Ultra★ compact GE AccuwattTM ballast system in which the ballast is direct mounted to the aluminum housing with a thermal wedge for optimum heat transfer. GE AccuwattTM 2000, 1500 and 1000 watt auto-regulator circuits are designed to start and stabilize their respective double-ended metal halide lamps at their design center. Ballast dielectric material is rated for a 200 degree C maximum operating temperature.
