SATCO Lighting S9622 9.5W, BR30 LED, 105 degree Beam Angle, 4000K, Medium Base, 120V, Dimmable

No. The S9622 is an open rated lamp, so it should only be used in fixtures that are open to air. Putting it in a sealed or airtight enclosure traps heat around the driver and shortens lamp life well short of the 25,000 hour rating. For enclosed cans you need a lamp specifically marked enclosed rated.

It is rated for damp locations and listed for indoor use, so a bathroom, a shower area outside the direct spray, or a covered porch soffit protected from rain is within its rating. Anywhere it can be hit by driving rain or standing water needs a wet location lamp instead.

No. The S9622 is flagged non-compliant for California Title 20. Satco lists S8492 as the Title 20 alternate substitute for California work, so specify that part number on those jobs.

4000K is a neutral white, cleaner and less yellow than the 2700K incandescent look most residential units are lit with. It reads well in corridors, lobbies, laundry rooms, garages, stairwells and back of house, and it is a common standardization point for commercial and multi-family common areas. If you are matching existing warm lamps in tenant units, 4000K will look visibly bluer beside them.

At 105 degrees this is a wide flood, not a spot. The frosted lens spreads 750 lumens broadly for general room and corridor washing rather than accenting artwork or merchandise. Spaced on typical ceiling layouts the pools overlap well; if you need a defined beam on a target, use a narrow PAR lamp instead.

No. The S9622 is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify under utility programs that require a DesignLights Consortium listing. It is FCC compliant for electromagnetic interference.

Each lamp draws 0.079 amps at 120 volts, so the lamp load itself is minimal, a fraction of an amp for a dozen fixtures. In practice the limit is the fixture and dimmer minimum load rating and local code derating, not the lamps.

Burning position is universal, so base-up in a recessed downlight, base-down in a pendant, or horizontal in a track head are all acceptable with no derating.

CRI is 80, which is the standard commercial grade for corridors, offices, back of house and general multi-family lighting. For retail merchandising, exam rooms, or anywhere color judgment matters, specify a 90+ CRI lamp instead.

No, this is a fixed 4000K lamp with no CCT selection switch. For a mixed building where you want one part number to cover both warm tenant spaces and neutral common areas, you need a selectable CCT lamp.
