HID Basics  
HOW IT WORKS  
The operational concept behind HID lamps  
is very similar to that of fluorescent lamps.  
Electrodes are positioned at either end of a  
tube, whose chamber is filled with gas and  
metals such as mercury. An electrical charge  
passes from one electrode to the other. In  
fluorescent lamps, this charge creates  
ultraviolet (UV) light, which converts to visible  
light once it passes through the phosphors  
on the tube’s interior.  
Arc Tube  
Filled with  
Gasses &  
Metals  
In an HID lamp, the electrical arc, gasses  
and metals are contained in what is known  
as the arc tube. The arc tube is made from  
either quartz (used in mercury vapor and  
metal halide lamps) or transparent ceramic  
(used in high-pressure sodium lamps because of  
their high temperature). All arc tubes are housed  
within a larger outer glass envelope.  
Starting  
Electrode  
(Probe)  
Unlike fluorescent lamps, the arc tube of HID lamps is  
filled with gas at a very high rate of pressure (up to 50  
psi). This allows the electrical arc created by the electrodes to  
operate in the visible part of the spectrum, producing usable light  
without the addition of phosphors.  
Like fluorescents, HID lamps require a ballast to control the electrical current  
in the arc tube. Certain HID lamps also require an ignitor, which produces a  
high voltage to pulse the arc tube, allowing the arc to strike.  
The biggest difference in HID lamps is the fact that they need a start-up time to reach their full brightness. This usually takes  
five to 10 minutes, during which time the lamp will flicker until the metal inside fully vaporizes and the lamp reaches is full  
operating temperature.  
Certain HID lamps have been  
designed to operate in a specific  
Burning  
position to achieve targeted life  
or performance goals. These  
examples illustrate these burning  
New HID lamps require a “burn in” period of  
approximately 100 hours before the lamp will  
reach its true specified color. Until this process is  
completed, lamps can be unstable and vary in  
color.

As HID lamps age, chemical changes occur that  
cause color shifting. The shifts vary depending  
on the lamp type.

FACT:  
lamps tend to shift  
color about twice as  
much as pulse start  
lamps. Results vary  
from lamp to lamp.  
HID lamp color is  
rated in kelvins and  
is reffered to as its

Temperature (CCT).

It is recommended  
to conduct a group  
relamping once it  
is determined that  
a lamp or group of  
lamps is changing  
color or failing. This  
way, the area being  
illuminated will main-  
tain an even balance  
of color and light.

HID Lamps Notes  
Rated Life  
HID Notes  
The rated life of metal halide lamps is based on  
the point when 50% of the lamps have burned out,  
based on a burn cycle of 10 hours per start. Various  
operating conditions affect lamp life. One key factor  
is operating position. Lamps designated universal can  
be operated in any position. However, life expectancy  
and lumen output are sacrificed in certain positions.  
Published “rated life” for universal lamps is based  
on operation in the vertical position. “Rated life” for  
universal lamps operated horizontally is 75% of the  
published rating. Shorter operating cycles also severely  
reduce life. At operating cycles shorter than 10 hours  
per start, life will shorten as follows:  
= Product by a manufacturer other than Satco  
= Product by one of the Primary lamp  
manufacturers  
S
ANSI Codes  
All HID lamps and ballasts are identified by an ANSI  
code. The purpose of these codes are to make sure  
that the lamp from one manufacturer is properly  
matched to any other manufacturers ballast, therefore  
resulting in safe operation, and produce the designed  
light output. Especially with the increasing complexities  
of metal halide product offerings, it is very important  
that the ballast and lamp ANSI codes are matched  
before use. The most recent changes to the ANSI lamp  
codes have added the E, S, and O letter designations.  
For example, a 400 watt probe start metal halide  
lamp will have an ANSI code of M59/E, M59/S, or M59/  
O. This should be used only on a ballast with an ANSI  
code of M59.  
5 hrs per start: Life is approx. 75% of rating  
2.5 hrs per start: Life is approx. 55% of rating  
Initial Lumen Listings  
Rated initial lumens are based on measurements at  
100 hours of use, and are based on specified burning  
position. The measures listed for universal position  
lamps are based on a vertical burning position;  
horizontal usage decreases the output by 25 to  
30%. For specifics on any particular lamp, call Satco  
customer service (800-43-SATCO).  
E - Lamps must be used in enclosed luminaires which  
meet the requirements of UL1598.  
S - Lamps are considered “suitable” for open  
luminaire operation, only if operated in the vertical  
±15° position. Lamps do not meet ANSI criteria for  
containment and must be turned off at least once  
per week for a minimum of 15 minutes if operated  
continuously. In addition these lamps must be group  
relamped before reaching rated lamp life.  
O - Lamps can be operated in open or enclosed  
luminaires within the manufacturer’s specified  
operating position limits. This type meets the ANSI  
criteria for containment rated operation. Special  
exclusionary sockets are available for these lamps to  
ensure that the wrong lamp type is not used.  
Safety Warnings  
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to read all safety  
warnings on the lamp package before use. For more  
information, call Satco customer service (800-43-SATCO).  
Steps to choosing the correct Metal Halide lamp.  
1) Determine the correct wattage.  
2) Determine the base.  
3) Choose the shape. ED and BT style lamps are generally interchangeable  
4) Determine the correct size, some wattages come in multiple sizes. For example, 400w lamps are  
standard ED37, but are also commonly available in an ED28 compact envelope.  
5) Determine burning position, BU, BD, Vertical, Horizontal, or Universal.  
6) Determine Pulse Start, or Probe Start. Pulse Start is standard on lower wattage lamps, (39 through 150 watts).  
Probe Start is standard on higher wattage lamps, (175 through 1500 watts), however Pulse Start  
technology is being used more and more on the higher wattages.  
7) Determine whether the project is calling for the newer Ceramic Arc tube lamps. These lamps offer  
higher color rendering, and Lumen Output than the more traditional Quartz Arc tube lamps.  
8) Determine whether fixture requires an Open Rated (Protected) lamp, or an Enclose Rated lamp.  
9) All Metal Halide lamps and ballasts are identified with an ANSI code. It is best to make sure that the  
ANSI code matches between the ballast and lamp.

HID Lamps Notes  
Measured vs Perceived Light  
Metal Halide 2005 NEC Changes  
The 2005 update to the National Electrical Code (NEC)  
includes two changes that affect the manufacture  
and installation of metal halide luminaires. Both  
changes address methods for preventing risk when  
metal halide lamps are used.  
Levels of HID Lamp  
Studies on nighttime visibility demonstrate experimentally  
that the human eyes is sensitive to different colors of  
light based on various lighting levels, thus impacting  
the “true” or “effective” lumen output of a lamp. Recent  
research shows that the color of a light source has a  
significant effect on nighttime visibility, which is important  
since most road accidents happen at night. It is also well  
known that the eye responds to color differently based  
on the amount of light available.  
The purpose of these changes is to prevent possible  
injury and property damage. Metal halide lamps can  
explode, shooting hot glass out of the luminaire, or  
fixture. In an open luminaire - one that does not have  
a lens - this can result in a fire, personal injury, and  
property damage. Although violent failure is a rare  
occurrence (about three incidents per year), the NEC  
has included these changes to help eliminate the  
hazard.  
While lumens are the standard measurement of light  
output, light is actually defined as energy evaluated by  
the eye. Standard lumen measurements are based on  
the light output response of a person only during high  
light levels (photopic light), typical of daylight and interior  
lighting. Light meters measure photopic light as seen  
by the central region of the eye. When light levels are  
very low, like starlight, the viewing conditions are referred  
to as scotopic. Under these conditions, the eyes visual  
response changes dramatically. Sensitivity to yellow and  
red light is greatly reduced, while response to blue light is  
vastly increased. Since lamp lumen measurements have  
been determined using photopic measurements, the  
lumen values do not accurately measure the effective  
light output as perceived by the human eye.  
In sports facilities, particularly in schools, athletic  
activity can break the outer jacket of a metal  
halide lamp used in an open luminaire. When this  
happens, the arc tube can continue to operate with a  
damaged or missing outer jacket. This leads to reports  
of UV over-exposure, including sunburn and a burning  
sensation around the eyes. The NEC change requires  
complete lamp enclosure in these facilities, which  
will provide mechanical protection to reduce the  
possibility of damage to the outer lamp jacket.  
Since the value of a lamp’s lumen output is different  
when considering the shifting color sensitivity of the eye  
at low levels, the effective lumens will be different from  
the measurable photopic lumens. As light diminishes  
from photopic to scotopic conditions, the effective  
lumens of yellow sodium light sources are reduced, and  
the effective lumens of the whiter metal halide sources  
increase. This effect is most dramatic for low pressure  
sodium (SOX) lamps. Almost all energy output from SOX  
lamps is yellow, resulting in an artificially high photopic  
lumen output, yet a very low perceived light output in  
low light level applications.  
NEC changes for open luminaires  
The NEC change regarding open luminaires is the  
new section 410.73(F)(5) that states, “Metal Halide  
Lamp Containment. Luminaires (fixtures) that use a  
metal halide lamp other than a thick-glass parabolic  
reflector lamp (PAR) shall be provided with a  
containment barrier that encloses the lamp, or shall  
be provided with a physical means that only allows  
the use of a lamp that is Type O.”  
Typical metal halide lamps have strong light output  
in the blue, green and yellow areas, resulting in high  
lumen output at all light levels. The blue light output  
of metal halide is in the high sensitivity region of the  
eye for low light levels. This means that the effective  
lumens actually increase for a metal halide lamp as  
the light level reduces and the eye shifts to a blue/  
green peak sensitivity. The ability to detect fine contrast  
is also significantly better under metal halide sources  
than sodium, making it a more effective light source in  
warehouse and retail applications. Studies have shown  
that metal halide lighting, in some circumstances, can  
be up to six times as effective as HPS. This can make a  
difference in peripheral viewing and dark areas where  
hidden hazards may be present.  
Therefore, to meet the 2005 NEC requirements,  
luminaires that use metal halide lamps must either:  
• Be enclosed to provide a containment barrier.  
• Use a special lampholder that will only accept an  
ANSI Type O rated metal halide lamp.  
NEC 2005 changes for sporting facilities  
The NEC change regarding open luminaires is the  
new section 410.4(E) that states, “Luminaires (fixtures)  
subject to physical damage, using a mercury vapor or  
metal halide lamp, installed in playing and spectator  
seating areas of indoor sports, mixed-use, or all-  
purpose facilities shall be of the type that protects  
the lamp with a glass or plastic lens. Such luminaires  
(fixtures) shall be permitted to have an additional  
guard.”
