Philips metal-halide bulb 20167615 73 W 3000 K 6400 lm

The Philips metal-halide bulb 20167615 delivers powerful, warm-white illumination with a rated power of 73 W, a colour temperature of 3000 K and a luminous flux of 6400 lm. Designed for use in compatible fixtures, this compact lamp produces stable light output suitable for commercial and architectural applications where high lumen density and warm colour rendering are required. The lamp operates at 1400 mA and contains a small amount of mercury in accordance with industry standards for metal-halide technology.

Advantages

This metal-halide bulb provides a high lumen output relative to its power consumption, producing bright, warm-white light that enhances visibility and colour perception in illuminated spaces. The lamp offers consistent light output over its operating life and is suitable for fixtures designed for high-intensity discharge lamps. The warm 3000 K colour temperature reduces harshness compared with cooler metal-halide options while maintaining substantial luminous efficacy.

Suitable for

• Indoor commercial lighting in retail spaces, showrooms, or halls
• Architectural accent lighting and facade illumination
• High-ceiling fixtures such as warehouses and gymnasiums (in compatible fittings)
• Applications requiring bright, warm-white light with good lumen output

Key specifications

• Rated power: 73 W
• Colour temperature: 3000 K (warm white)
• Luminous flux: 6400 lm
• Operating current: 1400 mA
• Contains mercury: approximately 4.5 mg

How to use

Install the lamp only in fixtures specified for metal-halide or high-intensity discharge lamps and ensure the fixture provides the correct electrical supply and ballast for 1400 mA operation. Allow the bulb to reach full operating temperature after ignition to achieve rated luminous flux and colour temperature. Do not use the lamp in enclosed luminaires that are not rated for metal-halide lamps unless the fixture manufacturer states compatibility.

Recommendations

For safe operation and long service life, use the bulb with a compatible ballast and proper fixture ventilation, avoid frequent on/off cycling, and follow local regulations for disposal or recycling due to the mercury content.
