Introduction
Improved colour
Lamps that feature superior colour rendering are an
art form. Quality of light is specific to GE lamps.
Objects and colours actually appear more vivid and
lively thanks to the extraordinary colour rendering
feature of GE lamps.
CMH SuperMini – “halogen-like” light that provides
dramatic accents and highlights with excellent colour
rendering. Lamp to lamp colour conformity and con-
sistent colour over life.

Introduction
Reduced energy
These lighting products conserve energy use and
efficiency while improving the quality of light.
Reduce your energy consumption whilst providing
improved quality of light, lamp life, colour rendering
and energy efficiency.
LucaloxTM XO
This type of High Pressure Sodium lamp pro-
vides 20% more light compared to standard
Lucalox lamps.

Introduction
Longer life
Extended life means lower costs for lamp
replacement and maintenance. GE lamps
offer you long life coupled with all the
advantages of quality lighting.

Introduction
System solution
GE Lamps and Ballasts are the perfect combination
for superior light output and long life. Energy savings,
superior performance and quality light, are features
of GE’s new electronic ballast and lamp
systems, which enables the creation of a new,
environmental-friendly solution for both luminaire
manufacturers and lighting designers.
CMH Electronic Ballasts – Coupling
ConstantColorTM CMH lamps with dedicated
GE electronic ballasts will ensure further
enhanced performance throughout a long
lamp life. All CMH ballasts offered by GE are
electronic, giving important advantages over
conventional electromagnetic circuits.

– Long life
– Outstanding colour reproduction
– Excellent light output over life
– Reduced mercury content
Cov-R-Guard ™ lamps
are wrapped in a casing of polycarbonate plastic that
effectively contains glass fragments and phosphor if the
lamp is broken. The casing allows for maximum protec-
tion with minimum light loss – keeping your installation
bright and safe. Both the casing and the lamp are fully
recyclable, once separated.

Initial lumen values and Rated Average Life based on vertical orientation for Universal types. Multi-Vapor™ lamps must operated in fully enclosed fixtures except those marked *when used VBU or VBD +/-15°.
For lamps requiring enclosed fixtures, lens/diffuser material must be able to contain fragments of hot quartz or glass (up to 1100 °C)
Lamps operated in the vertical position that are not designated “Enclosed Fixtures only” lamp may be used in an open or enclosed lighting fixture depending upon the application and operating environment.
For example, if the lamp is located near combustible material or in an area which is unoccupied for extended periods, an enclosed fixture which can contain fragments of hot quartz or glass is recommended.
For more information contact your fixture manufacturer.

High intensity discharge lamps
• GE’s SOX lamps produce light at wavelengths close to the peak sensitivity of the human eye and so provide one of the
most efficient types of artificial light.
• Particularly suitable where long operating hours are demanded such as lighting roads, tunnels and pathways, where SOX
lamps’ remarkably low-energy/high output characteristics make them a cost-effective choice.
GE’s SOX lamps offer outstanding performance and reliability throughout their rated life.
Outstanding energy – efficiency Long-term reliability
producing up to 4060 lumens from just 26 watts. with lamp survival rates of up to 80% at 12,000 hours.
Long-life Long-term performance
16.000 hours rated average life. offering 80% lumen maintenance at maximum rated life.
