Safety & Compliance
This lamp must be operated in enclosed fixtures only, per ANSI M47 requirements. Do not use beyond rated life — beyond rated life, light output diminishes while energy consumption and risk of lamp rupture increases. Turn lamp off at least once for 15 minutes per week. Allow lamp to cool before handling. Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling. Dispose of lamp in a closed container per applicable regulations.
