MaxLite

Dec 17 2015

Converting existing linear fluorescent fixtures to LED is a snap with MaxLite DirectFit T5 lamps, the plug-and-play replacement for high output linear fluorescent tubes.

DirectFit T5 Lamps plug into existing 54-watt T5HO ballasts without any extra labour or re-wiring, enabling facility managers to upgrade to the energy- and cost-saving benefits of LED technology in the most effective way. Suitable for use in totally enclosed, bi-pin socketed luminaires, the 27-watt replacement lamps evenly distribute more than 3,100 lumens of high-quality illumination for general commercial and industrial lighting applications. In addition, MaxLite DirectFit T5 lamps carry the ETL Sanitation Mark, indicating they have been tested to NSF International standards and may be used in food processing environments.

The lamps are constructed of glass with a shatter-resistant coating, and rated to a lifetime of 50,000 hours (L70 standards), for maximum durability and longevity. Available in colour temperatures of 4000K and 5000K, DirectFit T5 lamps are backed by a five-year limited warranty and lifetime product support. MaxLite offers a complete portfolio of ballast-compatible DirectFit LED lamps, including T8, U-Bend and PL versions.
