Osram FO32/835/ECO T8 Fluorescent Lamp 32W 48 Inch 3500K

Product Description

The OSRAM FO32/835/ECO is a 32-watt T8 fluorescent lamp built for energy-efficient general and commercial lighting applications. Part of the Octron 800 series with rare earth phosphor technology, it delivers an initial output of 2975 lumens and a mean output of 2750 lumens, both measured at 25 degrees C. The lamp operates at 3500K color temperature with a Color Rendering Index of 85, giving it accurate, neutral-white light suited for work environments. It uses an instant-start and programmed rapid start ballast type and carries a rated lamp life of 30,000 hours. The medium bi-pin base fits standard commercial T8 sockets. It is RoHS compliant, lead-free, and meets ANSI C78.81 and TCLP standards. Made in the USA.

This lamp is specified for commercial and residential lighting fixtures including recessed troffers, strip lights, cove lighting, and valance fixtures. It is compatible with OSRAM QUICKTRONIC electronic ballasts and the QUICK 60+ system, making it a direct fit for facilities already running OSRAM ballast infrastructure. The 48-inch nominal length and T8 form factor align with the most common commercial fluorescent fixture configurations. Electricians and lighting maintenance technicians typically specify this lamp for office, retail, and light industrial environments where color quality and long lamp life reduce maintenance cycles.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the fixture and verify the ballast is rated for instant-start or programmed rapid start T8 lamps before installing. Handle the glass envelope with care and avoid touching the lamp surface with bare hands, as skin oils can affect lamp performance. Dispose of spent lamps according to local regulations; TCLP compliance supports standard disposal pathways in most jurisdictions.
