Satco Lighting S9553 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What incandescent MR16 does this 3W Satco LED replace, and how much light does it put out?
It replaces a 20W halogen MR16 and produces 330 lumens at 3 watts. The color is 5000K, a cool daylight white, so if the rest of your fixtures are 20W halogen at roughly 2700K the S9553 will read noticeably bluer next to them. Plan on changing a whole run at once if appearance matters.
2) Can this MR16 go in a sealed or enclosed recessed can?
Yes. The S9553 is an enclosed rated lamp, so trapped heat in a sealed recessed housing or a closed decorative fixture will not void its use. It also carries a damp location rating, which covers covered porches, soffits and bathrooms, but not direct exposure to rain or submersion.
3) Is the Satco S9553 MR16 dimmable?
Yes, it is a dimmable lamp. On a low-voltage system the dimming performance depends on the transformer as much as the lamp, so an electronic low-voltage transformer paired with a matching ELV dimmer is the usual setup for smooth control.
4) Is a 40 degree beam spread right for retail display or accent lighting?
Forty degrees is a flood beam. It washes a wide area evenly, which suits general downlighting, cove work and lighting a shelf face or a broad display. If you want a tight pool on a single piece of art or a product hero, you want a narrow spot in the 15 to 25 degree range instead. At 330 lumens spread across 40 degrees, this is accent-level output, not a workhorse downlight.
5) Is the color rendering good enough to use this MR16 in a hotel lobby or retail space?
CRI is 80, which is the standard commercial benchmark and fine for circulation space, lobbies, corridors and general retail. For spaces where color accuracy sells the product, such as apparel, cosmetics, food or gallery work, specify a 90+ CRI lamp instead. The clear lens and silver housing on this one give a crisp, specular look in an open track head.
6) Does this Satco MR16 meet Buy American requirements for a federal job?
No. The S9553 is not BAA compliant, so it will not satisfy a Build America, Buy America procurement clause. It is also not DLC listed, which rules it out of utility rebate programs that require a DLC qualified product. It is FCC compliant.
7) Can I mount the Satco S9553 base-up in a recessed can or does it have to point down?
Burning position is universal, so base-up, base-down, or horizontal in a track head all work with no effect on rated life. Rated average life is 25,000 hours.
8) Is the Satco S9553 a color-selectable or three-way lamp?
Neither. It is fixed at 5000K with no CCT selector switch, and it is not a three-way lamp. If you are standardizing a property on one color temperature, that fixed output is an advantage since every lamp out of the carton matches.
