Mullins, South Carolina, March 3, 2006 The world's largest passenger airliner, the Airbus A380, has begun international commercial service equipped with SLi Lighting's T-5 fluorescent lamps. The A380 uses a variety of wattages of SLi T-5s in both 3000 and 4000 Kelvin color temperatures. The selection of SLi Lighting was made after extensive evaluation to ensure that the lamp selected for the A380 met the latest onboard engineering standards and specifications.
SLi T-5 lamps, including those used on the A380, have been available in the United States for more that four years. They are widely used in a variety of general lighting applications including new construction projects and energy saving retrofit installations. Size, operating efficiency, and color performance makes SLi T-5s an ideal choice for much OEM applications as well.
The T5 lamp is a new generation of triphosphor high efficiency slim linear fluorescent tubes offering superior colorimetric, photometric and lumen maintenance, making it particularly suitable for use in low profile recessed and suspended luminaires and modular systems.
With high lamp efficacy up to 104 lm/W and energy savings up to 25% compared to T8 lamps in appropriate luminaries, the SLi T5 delivers almost constant lumen maintenance throughout the entire life of the lamp due to tri-phosphor technology. The lamp has a high color rendering of 85 CRI and an average rated life up to 20,000 hours. Its optimized ambient operating temperature at 35 degree C (maximum lumen output) allows compact luminaire designs.
