How to use
Step 1: Switch off and isolate the fitting before replacing the lamp. Allow the old lamp to cool fully before handling.
Step 2: Remove the old lamp by releasing it from the R7s holders at each end.
Step 3: Handle the new lamp with a clean cloth or gloves. Do not touch the glass tube with bare hands. Skin oils can cause hot spots and premature failure.
Step 4: Insert the new lamp into the R7s holders at both ends. Ensure it is firmly seated before restoring power.

Safety
230V only. Not compatible with 110V supply. Switch off and allow to cool before handling. Do not touch the glass tube with bare hands, use a clean cloth or gloves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What cap type does this lamp have?
A: R7s double-ended. The two ceramic end caps push into a compatible R7s lamp holder at each end of the fitting. It is not compatible with B22 bayonet, E27 Edison screw, or any other cap type.
Q: What voltage does it run on?
A: 230V. For use on standard UK mains supply. Not compatible with 110V site supply.
Q: Why should I not touch the glass tube with bare hands?
A: Oils from skin contaminate the quartz glass surface. Under the heat of operation, this creates localised hot spots that cause premature failure and can lead to the tube cracking. Always handle with a clean cloth or gloves.
Q: What fittings is this compatible with?
A: Any 230V fitting designed to accept a double-ended R7s halogen linear lamp at 500W. Check the wattage and cap type of your fitting before ordering.
Q: Is this compatible with 110V site fittings?
A: No. This lamp is rated for 230V only. For 110V site lighting, see the CMT range of 110V LED work lights and tripod lights.
