Direct replacement for CAX-coded projectors
The Ushio CAX/130V lamp matches the ANSI CAX/130V code and fits fixtures that require a BA15d double-contact bayonet base. It operates at 130 volts and draws 50 watts, making it a direct replacement for projectors and specialised lighting equipment specifying this exact ANSI designation.
Fits BA15d sockets with 3.100-inch clearance
The T-8 envelope measures .984 inches in diameter and 3.100 inches in overall length, with a light centre length of 1.400 inches. These dimensions determine whether the lamp seats properly in the optical path and clears the housing. Verify the fixture accepts a BA15d base and provides at least 3.100 inches of axial space before installation.
Rated for 100 hours at full output
The incandescent filament delivers rated output for an average of 100 hours before replacement is needed. Plan for periodic change-out in continuous-use installations such as projection systems or stage lighting. The 50-watt draw at 130 volts remains steady throughout the rated life, so output does not shift during the service interval.

Questions about this item
How long will the 100-hour rated life last under continuous daily use?
The bulb carries an average rated life of 100 hours, so continuous operation will require replacement after approximately that many hours.
What heat or noise should I expect when the 50 W incandescent lamp runs all day?
As a 50 watt incandescent lamp it generates noticeable heat during extended use; no fan or moving parts means it operates silently.
Which fixture or socket must I already have for the BA15d base to work?
You need a socket that accepts a BA15d double-contact bayonet base, rated for 130 V operation.
