Satco Lighting S11654 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I drop the Satco S11654 T5 LED into my existing fluorescent fixture without touching the wiring?
No. The S11654 is a Type B ballast bypass lamp, so the fluorescent ballast has to be removed or bypassed and line voltage wired direct to the sockets. Drop it into a ballasted fixture as-is and it will not light. It accepts either single-ended or double-ended wiring, so it works with most common bypass conversions.
2) How do I set the color temperature on the Satco S11654 T5 LED, and what are the choices?
It is CCT selectable across five settings: 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, 5000K and 6500K. That lets a property manager stock one lamp and match warm 3000K corridors or 5000K shop and back-of-house areas from the same box. Output shifts slightly with the setting: 2000 lumens at the first setting, then 2075, 2100, 2150 and 2050 lumens.
3) Will this T5 LED fit my existing G5 miniature bi-pin sockets?
Yes. The lamp uses a G5 miniature bi-pin base, the same base as a standard 3 foot T5 fluorescent tube, so it seats in the existing lampholders. What changes is the wiring behind them, since this is a bypass lamp and the ballast has to come out.
4) Can I use this LED tube in a closed wraparound or gasketed fixture?
Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so sealed lenses, wraps and vaportight housings are fair game. It is rated for damp locations and indoor use, which covers parking garages, covered walkways and kitchens, but not direct wet exposure.
5) What voltage can I run a 3 foot T5 ballast bypass LED tube on?
The Satco 16W T5 runs on any line voltage from 120V to 277V at 50/60Hz, so the same lamp covers residential 120V and commercial 277V lighting circuits. Current draw runs 0.133A at the low end of the voltage range down to 0.058A at the high end.
6) Can a 16W LED tube really replace the T5 fluorescent I have now?
Satco rates the 16W T5 as a 100W incandescent equivalent, putting out up to 2150 lumens depending on the CCT setting, with an 82 CRI and a 160 degree beam spread for even coverage down the length of the fixture. Rated life is 50,000 hours.
7) Does the Satco S11654 meet California Title 24?
Yes, the 16W 3 foot T5 LED is listed as Title 24 compliant, and it is FCC compliant as well. That matters on California retrofit work where the lamp has to be on an approved list for the project to pass.
8) Can I put this LED tube on a dimmer or a 3-way circuit?
No. The Satco 16W T5 is not a three-way lamp, and it is a ballast bypass tube wired to line voltage. Run it on a straight switched circuit. For dimmed zones, spec a lamp or driver rated for that control.
9) Is the Satco 3 foot T5 LED glass or plastic?
The tube is glass with a frosted lens to diffuse the diodes, and the end caps are plastic. The housing finish is white.
