SYMBOLS & FOOTNOTES FOR FLUORESCENT LAMPS
Footnote Description
108 Average life rating at 12 hours operation per start is 15,000 hours.
109 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 2 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
0.75 meters (30 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.55m (22 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
110 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 2 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
1.0 meters (39 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.64m (24 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
111 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 2 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
0.6 meters (24 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.45m (18 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
112 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 2 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
0.8 meters (31 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.55m (22 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
113 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 2 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
2.0 meters (79 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 1.4m (55 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
114 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 1 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
0.3 meters (12 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.2m (8 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
115 CAUTION: This lamp emits ultraviolet (UV) power during operation and is in Risk Group 1 per ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-96. Exposure at less than
0.3 meters (12 inches) should be limited; for example exposure at 0.15m (6 inches) should not exceed 4 hours in an 8 hour interval (see
ANSI/IESNA RP-27.1-96). Certain medications and chemicals can increase an individual's sensitivity. Consult your physician for specific
information. Protective eyewear should be worn in occupational situations involving long term exposure in close proximity to the lamp. This
lamp is not intended and should not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
116 A fluorescent jacketed lamp consists of a T12 (1 1/2" diameter) lamp enclosed inside a T14.5 (1 13/16" diameter) glass jacket. A jacketed flu-
orescent lamp operates efficiently over a wide range of climatic conditions, including extremes of cold and strong wind in which an unjacket-
ed (bare) lamp would be inefficient or inoperable. The jacket size provides the clearance necessary to minimize damaging lamp-jacket con-
tact; narrow bands of rubber placed between the lamp and the jacket further prevent contact. A weather-tight seal is formed by neoprene rub-
ber end caps.
117 Mean lumens at 7,200 hours (40% of 18,000 hour average rated life) equal 4,371. For comparison to an F72T12 Slimline lamp with an aver-
age rated life of 12,000 hours use a mean lumen value of 4418 based on 95% lumen maintenance at 4,800 hours,(40% of 12,000 hours).
118 Use only with electronic ballasts which have been specifically designed to operate T2 miniature fluorescent lamps and to reliably and safely
control all lamp operating modes including end-of-lamp-life sensing circuitry. If a non-conforming ballast is used, very high temperatures
(350 degrees C typical) may be generated at the ends of the lamp especially during end-of-lamp-life operation, causing the lamp to crack and
resulting in potential fire, electrical shock, or burn hazards.
119 The life rating of FO32/700/ECO OCTRON® lamps operated on rapid start ballasts is 25,000 hours. The life rating of FO32/700/ECO OCTRON
lamps operated on instant start ballasts is 24,000 hours.
