46-inch T5 High Output tube

This 46-inch T5 fluorescent tube delivers 54 watts of high-output light at 3500K colour temperature. It is sold as a case of 40 tubes for commercial or industrial lighting projects. The Ecolux SPX35 phosphor provides 5000 lumens per tube. Buyers needing a different colour temperature or lower output should select another model.

Nominal length 45.2 inches

The critical specification is the 45.2-inch nominal length that determines fixture compatibility. Each tube is rated 54 watts and 5000 lumens with a 3500K CCT. Verify that the ballast and fixture are designed for F54W/T5/835/ECO lamps before ordering. Installing in an incompatible fixture will prevent operation.

Simple two-pin installation

Installation requires aligning the two-pin ends with the lampholders and rotating until seated. The most common issue is using a ballast not rated for 54-watt T5 high-output lamps, which causes flickering or failure to start. Ensure power is off and the ballast matches the F54W/T5/835/ECO specification. Handle tubes by the ends to avoid phosphor damage.

Questions about this item

How bright will each 54 W tube actually be once installed?

Each tube delivers 5000 lumens at 3500 K, giving a neutral-white high-output glow suited to commercial fixtures.

What does the T5 High Output designation mean for the electrical connection?

It requires a T5 HO electronic ballast; the lamp will not strike on standard T5 or T8 gear.

Will the 46 inch nominal length fit my existing troffer slots?

The lamp measures 45.2 inches end-to-end, so verify your fixture accepts that exact pin-to-pin dimension.
