Fluorescent lamps
The first choice for long-term lighting
Did you know that in Europe more than 90 % of the demand for artificial light is covered by discharge lamps? And this primarily means tubular fluorescent lamps. However, discharge lamps consume just a little more than 30 % of the energy required for lighting. If we had to rely exclusively on ordinary incandescent light bulbs for all our lighting we would have to increase the output from our power stations five times over. Depending on the type and the way in which they work, the average life of fluorescent lamps is between 5,000 and 45,000 hours, whereas a light bulb lasts only for about 1,000 hours.
Innovative fluorescent lamps such as LUMILUX from OSRAM with their new shapes are opening up even more options for lighting design. Operation with electronic control gear such as QUICKTRONIC from OSRAM ensures maximum economy and long life.
Why fluorescent lamps?
Tubular fluorescent lamps are the most widespread light sources throughout the world because they produce a ot of light and consume very little energy.
