Larson Electronics has developed a new 23 watt dimmable LED tube lamp that is an excellent choice for upgrading existing T8 dimming fluorescent lamp fixtures as well as a direct replacement for our own LED light fixtures.
LEDT8-48-D 23 watt T-series Dimmable LED tube lamp
The LEDT8-48-D 23 watt T-series LED bulb works with any T8 fluorescent light fixture and requires no ballast for operation. Power for this dimmable LED tube is single ended, meaning line and neutral voltage are applied to the same end. Internally, the operator simply brings the black wire to one pin and the white wire to the other. When installing this tube in a fluorescent light fixture, the operator must bypass the ballast and wire the power directly to one end of the LED tube. This feature makes the tubes an ideal upgrade for four foot fixtures with failed ballasts. This LED lamp features rotating pins, allowing operators to adjust the direction of light dispersion after installation. The polycarbonate lens diffuses the light and makes this bulb ideal for food safe environments as there is no glass. The aluminum housing serves as a heat sink and provides rigidity and strength for the bulb. This dimming LED tube uses electronic silicon control dimming and has been tested on all Lutron and Leviton electronic dimmers. When using electronic dimmer switches, the bulb will dim from 0% up to 100%. These multi-voltage LED bulbs run directly off any voltage ranging from 90 volts to 132 volts AC. This lamp will not work on any voltage outside of the 90-132V AC range and internal damage may occur if higher voltage is applied to the lamp.
“These new tubes were designed for our explosion proof light fixtures, but may be used as replacements in standard fluorescent light fixtures,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larsonelectronics.com. “By simply bypassing the ballast in a fluorescent fixture, installation is very simple.”
