Sylvania LEDlescent T8 Ballast-Free lamps provide a CCT selectable feature that allows for selecting a desired color temperature ranging from 3000K to 6500K. These lamps are an energy saving alternative, designed to replace traditional fluorescent T8/T12 lamps by bypassing the existing ballast. They contain no mercury, provide instant light and a uniform light distribution. Engineered to operate directly on 120-277V, these lamps minimize labor and recycling costs. These lamps can be used with occupancy and vacancy sensors for enhanced energy savings.
When installing the LEDlescent T8 lamps, the UL rating of the existing fixture is not voided (even when it is electrically modified) since Sylvania LEDlescent T8 lamp is UL Classified (as a luminaire conversion retrofit kit) under UL standard 1598C. UL 1598C is
the standard covering LED retrofits intended for an existing UL rated fixture. Since the user is retrofitting with a UL 1598C classified LED kit, the installer must follow the installation instructions included with the lamps for the modified fixture to retain its UL rating.
