Product Overview & Applications

The MEGAMAN Metal Halide Double Ended Tube (YT-MH) RX7s 150W - YT-MH/150W/RX7s delivers high-intensity lighting engineered for applications requiring crisp illumination and color rendering. Operating on a 230V electrical supply, this 150W double-ended discharge tube features an RX7s cap design for secure insertion into compatible HID luminaires.

With a Color Rendering Index (CRI) of ≥90, it reveals true-to-life tones, making it effective for commercial displays, accent lighting, and task-oriented space illumination. Its compact tubular double-ended configuration allows integration into slim floodlights, high-bay setups, and specialized commercial fixtures.

Key Applications:

• Commercial & Retail Display Lighting: Enhances product visibility in shop windows, showrooms, and exhibition spaces where a high CRI of ≥90 provides accurate color fidelity.

• Industrial & Workstation Floodlighting: Provides high-wattage illumination across factory floors, workshops, and warehouse environments.

• Outdoor Area & Architectural Luminaire Setup: Ideal for integration into enclosed outdoor floodlight fixtures for facades, perimeter security, and landscape highlights.

Key Features

• High Color Accuracy (CRI ≥90): Delivers color rendering to reflect the natural appearance of illuminated objects and spaces.

• High-Intensity 150W Power Output: Operates at 150W on 230V systems to illuminate high ceilings and large indoor or outdoor areas.

• Standardized RX7s Double-Ended Cap: Utilizes an RX7s double-ended contact base to fit compatible metal halide fixtures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What are the main specifications of the MEGAMAN YT-MH/150W/RX7s tube?

A: The tube operates at 150W with a 230V rating, features an RX7s double-ended cap, and provides a Color Rendering Index (CRI) of ≥90.

Q2: What does a CRI rating of ≥90 mean for this metal halide light source?

A: A CRI of ≥90 indicates color rendering quality, making colors appear vibrant and accurate under illumination.

Q3: How does a 150W tube compare to lower wattage options like a 12W or 18W bulb?

A: A 150W metal halide tube produces significantly higher intensity output suited for high-ceiling or large-area floodlighting, whereas 12W or 18W lamps are designed for low-power, localized accent lighting.

Q4: Is the MEGAMAN YT-MH/150W/RX7s double-ended tube weatherproof for monsoon environments?

A: Weatherproofing depends on the luminaire enclosure; the tube itself has no standalone IP rating and must be installed inside an appropriately weather-sealed (IP65+) outdoor fixture.

Q5: Does this metal halide tube require a ballast or control gear setup?

A: Yes, HID metal halide tubes require specialized control gear (ballast and ignitor) matched to the 150W 230V specification to ignite and operate safely.

Q6: Can this 150W RX7s tube be dimmed or adjusted?

A: Standard metal halide lamps are non-dimmable and must run at their fixed 150W rating on a dedicated control gear setup.

Q7: How is the double-ended RX7s tube installed into the fixture socket?

A: Turn off main power and allow the fixture to cool, then insert the contacts of the RX7s tube straight into the spring-loaded holder slots until seated securely.

Q8: Can I replace a single-ended screw bulb with this double-ended RX7s tube?

A: No, double-ended RX7s tubes require a specific double-contact socket mechanism and compatible 150W metal halide ballast setup.
