PHILIPS 15V 150W 6423 FO About
The Philips 6423 FO (ANSI code EFR) is a 15 V, 150 W quartz halogen lamp with a built-in dichroic reflector. It directs intense, cool light forward while reflecting 75% of the heat backwards. It features a GZ6.35 bi-pin base and lasts for 50 hours. It provides bright, natural light. This lamp is widely used for: Medical devices: Microscopes, endoscopes, and operating lights. Fiber optic illumination: Cold light sources and scientific equipment. Projection systems: Slide and film projectors.
Precision Illumination for Specialized ApplicationsThe PHILIPS 6423 FO halogen reflector lamp is engineered to offer consistent, high-output lighting in projectors, medical devices, and scientific equipment. Its parabolic reflector ensures an evenly distributed, wide beam, making it an ideal choice for settings that demand accuracy and clarity.
Robust Construction with Optimal PerformanceBuilt with durable hard glass and a C-6 filament, this bulb maintains optimal performance even under intense usage. The GZ6.35 bi-pin base facilitates easy installation and secure electrical connectivity, while the reflective coating maximizes luminous output where it's needed most.
FAQ's of PHILIPS 15V 150W 6423 FO:
Q: How should the PHILIPS 15V 150W 6423 FO lamp be installed for best performance?
A: For best results, insert the lamp into a compatible GZ6.35 bi-pin socket, ensuring it fits securely. Always handle the bulb with clean gloves or a cloth to avoid oil residue, and install it in devices designed for 15V, 150W halogen lamps with universal operating position.
Q: What are the primary applications for the PHILIPS 6423 FO reflector lamp?
A: This lamp is primarily used in projectors, medical instruments, and scientific devices where precise, high-lumen output and a broad, even beam are essential.
Q: When should I expect to replace the 6423 FO lamp?
A: You should anticipate replacing the lamp after approximately 50 hours of operation, as this represents its average rated life under standard usage conditions.
Q: Where is the PHILIPS 6423 FO lamp safe to use?
A: It is intended strictly for indoor, dry environments since it is not IP rated. Always use it in equipment where the lamp is shielded from moisture and dust.
Q: What is the benefit of the wide beam reflector in the 6423 FO?
A: The wide beam provided by the parabolic reflector ensures uniform illumination over a broad area, supporting clear, accurate light projection in both medical and scientific settings.
Q: How does the clear, reflective coating improve lamp performance?
A: The reflective coating enhances luminous efficiency by directing more light outwards, increasing effective brightness while minimizing energy loss within the lamp housing.
