| Lamp coating contains broken glass and vapours Shat-R-Shield relaunched its line of T5 fluorescent lamps with the new coating. T5 lamps are suitable for industrial sites because of their relatively low energy use. However such lamps give off more heat and UV rays than other high output fluorescents. Such conditions usually cause safety coatings to deteriorate quickly, increasing the risks in the event of breakage. The coating has additional strength that allows it to stay intact even under high heat and UV output conditions. Shat-R-Shield said it has developed a new mix of tetrafluorethylene and hexafluoroproylene coPolymer that remains intact, containing virtually all glass and vapors when broken. The new T5 HO lamps are easier to maintain because they do not need shatterproof sleeves, which can also reduce lumen output. In the event of breakage, one person can replace the lamp. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
