Fluorescent tube Osram LUMILUX T8 16 W G13, 1250 lm, CRI 80, 20000 h

Osram LUMILUX T8 16 W is a fluorescent linear tube with a G13 bi-pin base that provides 1250 lm of luminous flux and a colour rendering index (CRI) of 80. With a rated lifetime of 20,000 hours and proven lamp technology, this T8 tube is designed for general-purpose white illumination in commercial and utility environments. The lamp uses top-quality three-band phosphor to ensure stable light output and good colour rendering throughout its service life.

Advantages

The LUMILUX T8 offers good energy economy through efficient light output at 16 W and maintains approximately 90% of its initial lumen output over the rated lifetime. It belongs to a good colour rendering group (Ra 80–89) suitable for general lighting tasks and is available in various correlated colour temperatures for matching different installation requirements. The tube is dimmable and built on established fluorescent technology for predictable performance.

Suitable for

• Office lighting and public buildings

How to use

Install the tube into a compatible luminaire with a G13 socket according to the luminaire and ballast requirements. Ensure power is switched off before fitting or replacing the lamp. If the luminaire uses an external ballast, verify compatibility with fluorescent T8 tubes and the dimming system if dimming functionality is required. For outdoor or humid locations use only in luminaires specified for such environments.

Usage recommendations

For consistent light quality and lifetime performance, match the tube’s correlated colour temperature with the application and replace used lamps in groups when maintained illuminance is required. When planning installations, consider appropriate ballasts and mounting orientation per the luminaire manufacturer’s instructions.
