C3 Cold Cathode Compact
Fluorescent Lamps
The next generation compact
fluorescent lamps
Cold cathode
lamps have been used for years in laptop
displays, copiers and cell phones. Even some
of the new fl at panel LCD television
screens and monitors utilize cold cathode
technology because the technology is proven
and reliable.
Recently, the technology has been adapted
and applied to
general illumination products that have an
average life rating of
25,000 hours and are dimmable. These energy
saving lamps
replace higher wattage incandescent lamps
making them ideal
for applications where reduced maintenance
and energy costs
are desired.
The soft starting of the cathodes ensures
long lamp life and
unparalleled performance under difficult
ambient conditions.

OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS
DIMMING:
USHIO's dimmable Cold Cathode Compact Fluorescent lamps should only be used on modern analog dimmers. They will not work on digital dimming systems, which although uncommon, may still be found in certain new commercial installations.
Unlike their incandescent counterparts, CCFL's will not dim to 0%. This can be attributed to the differences in the lamp designs and technologies. A
cold cathode lamp functions similarly to a linear fluorescent lamp, which requires that an arc be maintained between the cathodes / electrodes. A certain amount of power is required to maintain this arc. There is also power that is consumed in the operation of the ballast. Due to the power consumed by these two items, a dimmable CCFL has a much more restricted dimming range than incandescent lamps. C3
Cold Cathode lamps have a dimming range of 100% - 30%. Depending on the brand and type of dimmer used, you may experience flickering or shutdown with C3
Cold Cathode lamps when dimmed below 30% of the lamp's power.
ENVIRONMENT
The ideal ambient operating temperature for the C3 Cold
Cathode lamps is 25C (77F). These lamps will operate in ambient temperatures between -15C (5F) and 50C (122F).
The 3W, 5W and 8W C3 lamps are suitable for use indoors or outdoors. The 13W and 18W C3 lamps are for indoor use only.
