Product Overview
The 18 Watt 4 Foot T8 LED Tube is designed for efficient lighting in commercial and office environments. Delivering 2160 lumens at a color temperature of 5000K, this tube provides bright, clear illumination suitable for various workspace settings. It operates within a voltage range of 100-277V, making it versatile for different electrical systems. This LED tube is an ideal replacement for 32-watt fluorescent tubes, offering energy savings and reduced maintenance costs over time.Core Performance and Output
This LED tube offers a lumen output of 2160 lumens with an efficiency of 120 lumens per watt. The beam angle of 140° ensures wide light distribution, suitable for general lighting applications. The tube operates at a frequency of 50/60 Hz with a power factor of 0.95, ensuring stable performance. While the tube is effective for standard ceiling heights, excessive output may occur if used in low-ceiling applications, potentially leading to glare.Adjustability and Control Options
This LED tube does not support dimming, which simplifies installation and reduces compatibility issues with existing dimming systems. It offers three installation options: removing the fluorescent ballast, connecting using single-ended power, or connecting using double-ended power. These options provide flexibility for various retrofit scenarios.Longevity and Reliability
With a lifespan of 50,000 hours, this LED tube significantly reduces the frequency of replacements compared to traditional fluorescent tubes. Its robust design ensures consistent performance over time, minimizing disruptions in lighting quality. The tube's low total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 15% contributes to its reliable operation.Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The tube measures 4 feet in length and weighs 1 pound, making it easy to handle during installation. Its clear lens design enhances light output while maintaining durability. The product is ETL certified and rebate eligible, ensuring compliance with industry standards and potential cost savings through energy efficiency programs.Where This Product Fits Best
This LED tube is well-suited for environments requiring consistent and efficient lighting. It is commonly used in settings where energy efficiency and long-term reliability are priorities.- office lighting retrofit
- classroom lighting retrofit
- retail lighting retrofit
- utility area lighting retrofit
- healthcare support lighting retrofit
- corridor lighting retrofit
Installation and Long-Term Use
Installation is straightforward, with options to suit different retrofit needs. The tube can be installed by removing the existing fluorescent ballast or using single or double-ended power connections. For optimal performance, ensure the tube is installed at appropriate heights to prevent glare. Regular maintenance is minimal, primarily involving occasional cleaning to maintain light quality.How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
This LED tube is typically mounted in standard ceiling fixtures, providing uniform lighting across office spaces, classrooms, and retail environments. Spacing and layout depend on the specific lighting requirements of the area, with higher output reducing the number of fixtures needed but potentially increasing glare if not properly managed.Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
The tube is ETL certified, ensuring it meets safety and performance standards. It is also rebate eligible, offering potential cost savings through energy efficiency programs. The product comes with a warranty that covers manufacturing defects, providing peace of mind for long-term use.Frequently Asked Questions
