Satco Lighting S11976 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I drop the Satco S11976 T8 LED tube into my existing fluorescent fixture without rewiring it?
Yes. The S11976 is a dual mode hybrid Type A/B lamp, so it will run on an existing compatible fluorescent ballast (Type A) or you can bypass the ballast and wire line voltage directly to the sockets (Type B). That means you can relamp now and convert to direct wire later when the ballast fails, without buying a different tube.
2) Does this 48 inch LED tube fit standard T8 bi-pin sockets?
It uses a G13 medium bi-pin base in a 48 inch T8 shape, the same lampholder spacing as a standard 4 foot F32T8 fluorescent tube, so it seats in existing T8 tombstones. For Type B operation those sockets get rewired to line voltage, but the lamp itself needs no socket change.
3) Can this T8 LED tube go in an enclosed or gasketed wraparound fixture?
Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so sealed lensed wraps and gasketed fixtures are fine, where many LED tubes are not. Location rating is damp and indoor only, which covers parking garages, covered walkways, and laundry or utility rooms, but not direct wet exposure.
4) What voltage can this Satco T8 LED tube run on for a 277V commercial panel?
The S11976 accepts 120V through 277V at 50/60Hz, drawing 0.100 to 0.043A depending on where in that range you land. The same lamp works on 120V residential circuits and 277V commercial lighting branch circuits.
5) Is this tube dimmable or three-way?
No. The S11976 is not a three-way lamp, and as a hybrid Type A/B tube it is built for straight on/off operation on either a fluorescent ballast or direct line voltage. If the space needs dimming, specify a dimmable LED tube with a matched driver or dimming ballast instead.
6) Can I mount this tube vertically in a stairwell fixture?
Burning position is universal, so the lamp can be installed horizontally, vertically, or at any angle without affecting rated performance. That makes it usable in stairwell and wall-mounted strip fixtures as well as standard overhead troffers.
7) Is the lens on this Satco LED tube glass or plastic, and will it glare?
The tube has a frosted glass lens over a white housing, and the frost diffuses the diodes so you see a soft line of light rather than individual points. Beam spread is 210 degrees, so light wraps well past straight-down and fills a reflector-style troffer.
