SharXS HTI – this modular family of lamps unites two technologies, which transform a performance into an extraordinary experience. First, short-arc technology means that the electrodes in these double-ended HTI metal halide lamps are closer together. This makes them considerably higher in luminance than traditional metal halide lamps of the same wattage and results in a better overall system efficiency. Second, the XS (eXtreme Seal) technology has distinct advantages. The heat-sensitive areas within the pinch seals are covered by a protective layer, which means that the need for cooling – and thereby the noise output of the fixture – is significantly reduced. All this allows for simpler, more compact solutions that keep background noise at a minimal level. The standard SharXS lamps utilize the SFc10-4 base and are standardized at a 136mm overall length, whereas the Baby SharXS with the same base are 93mm in length. The Maxi SharXS with a length of 220mm utilizes the SFc15.5 base design. The SharXS Brilliant versions offer CRI> 90.
