FAQs

What type of lighting fixture is this lamp for?

This lamp is specifically designed for disco lighting effects and other specialized projectors that require a 100W bulb with a dichroic reflector and a 12 VAC @ 50 Hz power input.

Can I use this lamp with a standard 120V or 240V outlet?

No, this lamp requires a specialized 12 VAC @ 50 Hz power supply. Using it with standard household voltage will damage the lamp and potentially the fixture.

How often should I replace this lamp?

The lifespan of the lamp depends on usage hours and operating conditions. For intensive use in professional settings, regular inspection and replacement based on performance degradation are recommended. Consult the fixture's manual for estimated lamp life.

What does 'dichroic reflector' mean?

A dichroic reflector is a type of reflector that uses thin-film interference to reflect certain wavelengths of light while allowing others to pass through. For this lamp, it helps to efficiently direct and shape the light, improving brightness and color accuracy.

Is this lamp suitable for home or office lighting?

No, this lamp is intended for specialized lighting effects and projector applications, not for general ambient lighting in homes or offices.

How do I handle the lamp during installation?

Always handle the lamp by its base to avoid transferring oils from your skin to the glass or reflector, which can cause hot spots and reduce its lifespan. Ensure the fixture is powered off and unplugged.

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not illuminate

Verify that the power source is connected and providing 12 VAC @ 50 Hz. Ensure the lamp is correctly seated in its socket. Check the fixture's fuse or circuit breaker.

Flickering light output

Inspect the power connections for looseness. Ensure the power supply is stable and within specifications. The lamp itself may be nearing the end of its lifespan.

Reduced brightness or color distortion

Check if the dichroic reflector is clean and free of dust or debris. The lamp may be aging and require replacement. Ensure the power input is stable and correct.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the projector or lighting fixture is powered off and unplugged before installation. Carefully remove the old lamp and insert the FX Lab Projector Lamp, ensuring it is seated correctly in its socket. Do not force the lamp. Reconnect power only after the lamp is securely in place.

Compatibility: This lamp is designed to work with lighting fixtures that specifically require a 12 VAC @ 50 Hz power input and utilize the A1/231 bulb type. Always consult your lighting fixture's manual to confirm compatibility before purchase. Using this lamp with incompatible power sources or fixtures can result in damage or malfunction.

Care: Handle the lamp by its base to avoid touching the glass or reflector, as oils from your skin can affect performance and lifespan. Store the lamp in its original packaging in a cool, dry place when not in use. Periodically check for dust accumulation on the reflector and clean gently with a soft, dry cloth if necessary.
