High Pressure Sodium Lamp Lifespan

Clear tubular outer bulb.

High pressure sodium lamp lifespan.

Robust construction is vibration and shock resistant leading to a reliable life. A sodium vapor lamp is a gas discharge lamp that uses sodium in an excited state to produce light at a characteristic wavelength near 589 nm. The heat generated by the arc then vaporizes the mercury and sodium. They also do have great lifespans around 24 000 hours though this is significantly less than leds.

The mercury vapor raises the gas pressure and operating. From the general electric 1999 lamp catalogue p 3 15 the rated life is 24 000 hours which means that at 24 000 hours the testing ended with two thirds of the lamps still burning.

Low pressure and high pressure low pressure sodium lamps are highly efficient electrical light sources but their yellow light restricts applications to outdoor lighting such as street lamps where they are widely used. The xenon gas which is easily ionized facilitates striking the arc when voltage is applied across the electrodes.

Two varieties of such lamps exist. We also offer special conversion metal halide bulbs that can be used with fixtures intended for high pressure sodium light bulbs. Benefits of high pressure sodium the main benefit of using hps is that they are the only light source with a similar efficiency to leds and maintain luminescence fairy well. In a high pressure sodium lamp a compact arc tube contains a mixture of xenon sodium and mercury.

Son t is a cost efficient and reliable solution in high pressure sodium. High pressure sodium hps lamps are not sensitive to burning position.
