CMH 150W/830 RX7S GE ConstantColor Lamp

The GE Lighting CMH 150W/830 RX7S discharge lamp is a metal halide light source designed for technical lighting and professional applications that require high color rendering and consistent luminous flux.

Technical Lighting and Commercial Environments

This discharge lamp is ideally suited for lighting systems in showrooms, galleries, and retail spaces where light quality and color accuracy are essential. The 3000K color temperature provides a warm white light that enhances the products on display, while the color rendering index (CRI) of over 80 ensures accurate color reproduction. The high luminous flux of 14,500 lm allows for the efficient illumination of large spaces.

Applications in Public and Professional Settings

Thanks to its robustness and long service life, the CMH light source is suitable for lighting offices, museums, and hotels where continuous illumination and consistent light quality over time are required. The RX7S base allows for quick installation in fixtures specifically designed for this type of light source.

Design Features and Reliability

The tubular design, featuring a compact diameter and short length, facilitates integration into technical lighting fixtures, spotlights, and indoor and outdoor floodlights. Metal halide technology ensures stable luminous flux and flicker-free operation—essential characteristics for sensitive environments such as photography studios and television sets.

Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

Although it belongs to energy class G, this discharge lamp maintains a competitive lumen-per-watt ratio for applications that prioritize light quality over minimal energy consumption. The estimated lifespan of 15,000 hours reduces replacement frequency, limiting maintenance costs and the environmental impact associated with replacements.

Compatibility and Installation

The RX7S base is a well-established standard for medium-power discharge lamps, ensuring a wide availability of compatible fixtures. The lamp is not dimmable; therefore, it is recommended to use it with power supplies and control systems specifically designed for discharge lamps, which ensure proper ignition and circuit protection.
