The difference between the sintered electrodes and traditional spiral electrodes:
- The spiral electrode, which is traditionally used in lamps, is composed of a tungsten core with the tungsten wire reeled around it, and has the emitter placed between the wire coils.
- The sintered electrode is composed of a tungsten core on which, with the use of unique innovative technology, the emitter mix and a tungsten powder are fixed.
- This results in the sintered electrodes containing 10-15 times the emitter quantity of a standard spiral electrode of identical size.
Advantages of using sintered electrodes:
- The service life of a lamp is increased 1.4 times or more.
- The decrease in luminous flux during service life of the lamp is significantly decreased.
