Model: FGT3U20W
2 Test Method
2.1 Photometric and Electrical Measurement (Integrated Sphere Method)
Total light output (luminous flux) for the 25 1 ambient temperature conditions is measured
using a 2.0m 4 geometry integrating sphere. The sphere's coating reflectance is 98%. Selfabsorption connection is conducted in testing. Temperature is measured at a position inside the
sphere. Spectral radiant flux measurements are made using Lab sphere to the detector port of the
integrating sphere. Each lamp is operated at rated voltage in its designated orientation. Each tamp
should be stable before measurements are made. The determining method of stable as follows:
Step 1 Take 6 measurements of the lamp intensity at 1 minute interval (total time=5mintues.) This
time period is in addition to the recommended pre-burning time.
Step 2 Calculate the percent difference between the maximum measured value and the minimum
measured value for the three consecutive measurements.
Step 3 if the value calculated in Step 2 does not exceed 1 percent, the lamp is considered stable.
Luminous flux, chromaticity coordinates, correlated color temperature and color rendering index
for each lamp are calculated from the spectral radiant flux measurements taken at 2 nm intervals
over the range 380 to780 nm. Lamp efficacy (lumen per watts) for each lamp model is computed
based on the revised luminous flux result. Electrical measurements including voltage, current,
power and power factor are measured using the digital power Meter.
2.2 Deviation from standard operating procedure

None.
