Performance Characteristics of HMI-Type Lamps
This article discusses the various characteristics of HMI lamps, in particular the BriteArc™ and BriteBeam™ versions. Among the items discussed are color temperature and its relationship to color quality, and the beam characteristics of the HMI-type lamps. The changes that take place are described and explained in terms of the arc tube characteristics. Also discussed are such factors as luminaire design, specific ballast use, applied line voltage, color balance, and similar elements.
