Footnotes

• The life ratings of fluorescent lamps are based on 3 hr. burning cycles under specified conditions and with ballast meeting ANSI specifications. If burning cycle is increased, there will be a corresponding increase in the average hours life.
• Recommended to be used on any F32 T8 Instant Start circuit. It is not recommended to be used:(1) with Rapid Start circuits unless the open circuit voltage is greater than 550V, (2) at lamp ambient temperatures below 60 degrees F or in drafty locations, (3) on dimming ballast or (4) inverter operated emergency lighting systems unless any of the above equipment is specifically listed for use with the OCTRON(R) SUPERSAVER(R) 28 or 30 watt, 4 foot or 30W U-bent T8 lamp. Any of the above situations could result in lamp starting and stabilization problems
• Approximate initial lumens after 100 hours operation.
• The 40,000 hour average rated life of OCTRON 800XP, XP/SS and XPS lamps is based on operation at 3 hours per start on a QUICKTRONIC programmed rapid start ballast. Average rated life is 42,000 hours at 12 hours per start on a programmed rapid start ballast. On an instart start ballast, the average rated life is 40,000 hours at 12 hours per start, and 24,000 hours at 3 hours per start.
• SYLVANIA ECOLOGIC fluorescent lamps are designed to pass the Federal Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) criteria for classification as non-hazardous waste in most states. TCLP test results are available upon request. Lamp disposal regulations may vary, check your local & state regulations. For more information, please visit www.lamprecycle.org
• If an operating lamp is exposed to drafts or the ambient temperature falls below 60 degrees F, striation (a rhythmic pulsing pattern of light running down the tube) and/or reduction in lamp brightness may occur. While visually disconcerting, neither behavior is damaging to the lamp and removing the cause (draft or temperature) will return the lamp to normal operation.
