Overview of the characteristics of DNaT sodium lamps

The abbreviation for DNaT lamps is as follows: “D” - arc, “N” - sodium, “T” - tubular. These light sources are in great demand both in domestic and industrial applications. Next, we will talk about where sodium bulbs are used, and we will also bring to your attention the most important technical characteristics of DNaT lamps.

Application area

So, as we have said, sodium bulbs can be used not only in everyday life, but also for industrial purposes. As for home conditions, DNaT lamps are used for growing plants in greenhouses and sometimes even for street lighting. Nevertheless, the first use case is more common, which is associated with the technical characteristics of the products, which we will talk about later.

In addition to living conditions, sodium lamps can be used to illuminate gyms, underground passages and even streets. However, at the same time, the use of these light sources for high-quality lighting of certain areas is a very controversial issue, because bulbs have a very small color rendering index and a high ripple.

So, now we will consider in the tables the main technical characteristics of the most popular models of DNaT bulbs, namely: 70, 100, 150, 250, 400, 1000. To begin with, to make it clear to you, let's talk a little about all the most important data, and then collect some of these are listed in a handy table.

operating temperature from -30^aboutC to +40^aboutWITH;
service life (service life) from 6 to 25 thousand hours;
cap type threaded E27 or E40;
coefficient of performance (COP) - 30%;
power (energy consumption) from 70 to 1000 W (indicated by a number after letter marking, for example, a DNaT 150 lamp);
lamp voltage from 100 to 120 volts;
luminous flux from 3700 to 130,000 lm;
light output from 80 to 130 Lm / W;
wavelength from 550-640 nm;
color temperature 2000 K;
color rendition of 20-30 Ra;
pulsation of a light stream to 70%;
inclusion time from 6 to 10 min;

So we have provided general information about the technical characteristics of DNaT sodium lamps. Now we suggest that you familiarize yourself in more detail with a description of all the most important parameters of existing models:

Overview of the main parameters of popular models

In the tables, we even provided the dimensions of the cylindrical tubes so that you can take them into account when calculating the lighting for plants. As for weight, it can be different and this technical parameter is not always indicated by the manufacturer. So that you are roughly oriented in value, you can only say that the weight of the DNaT 250 lamp is 0.23 kg, and models with a power of 400 W - 0.4 kg.

That's all I wanted to tell you about the characteristics of sodium light bulbs. We hope that the provided general information with the tables was useful for you and useful in the calculation work!
