FOREWORD I

2

A substantial part of the great progress made in theart olf photography has been contributed by new andimproved Iight sources - lamps for picture taki n g,picture processin g, pictu re production, reproducti on,picture viewing and projection.Each of the many lamps used in photography

is designed to do one specialized job. A photoflashlamp must deliver a great quantity of light during theexect.spllt second that a camera shutteris open;a projection lamp must pour a, maximum amount of lightthrough a very tiny opening in order to projectthe brightest possible image on the screen; aphotollood lemp must deliver ligkt of exactly the rightcolor in maximum amounts with minimum currentconsumption. Many different types of lamps are neededto meet different requirements and there mustbe a variety of sizes to accommodate a range of needs,To fill the many special needs for lamps in photographyin the best possible way requires experience, skill andextensive resources. General Electric leadership inthe development of better Iight sources forphotography has continued since Edison'sfirs~ lampopened the way to today's achievements.The lamps shown in th.is catalog include only those

types and sizes in greatest general demand andthose required for newer types of equipment or designedto replace older types of lamps. Information onlamps not listed may be obtained from any of theGeneral Electric Lamp Division OFFices listed on theback cover.

ESTING FACILITIES ASSURE HIGHESTENERAL ELECTRIC PHOTOLAMPS

INSPECTIONInspection of projection lamps for source dimen-

sions, axial alignment, and light center length.All General Electric projection lamps are care-fully inspected on equipment similar to this one tomake sure that the filament is properly positionedto insure the highest efficiency in optical systems.

DESIGNThis group of laboratory equi.pment was assembledto provide camera manufacturers with much-needed

answers to many questions regarding the design ofsynchron izers bui It into camera shutters. As withvirtually all such investigations, the object is toachieve photographic equipment designs which areof maximum reliability, convenience, and economyto the ultimate user.

SINTERINGHigh efficiency, precisely formed tungsten fila-

ments are sintered under closely controlled con-ditions of temperature and time to insure goodfilament performance with a minimum of deformation.

"FP" stands for "focal plane"and describes the type of shutterthat is located at the film (focal)plane of certain cameras. For syn-chronized flash photography withsuch shutters it is necessary to uselamps having a special and longerflash duration of the type illus-trated here. For pictures by the"open flash" method any photo-flash lamp appropriate to thereflector equipment can be used.

THE General E lectric Company has always been theleading manufacturer of filam ent lamps for pictureprojection. Its leadership in the developm ent of newand improved light sources has p layed a m ajor partin the advancem ent and developm ent of picture projectionto its present h igh standards of perform ance.Now the General E lectric Company has assum ed a newform of leadership in this im portan t field of lighting. Thevery developm en ts of which it is justly proud haveresulted in a multiplicity of types of projection lamps fargreater than is now needed to serve the varied needs ofold and new projectors. New projectors are beingdesigned for a selected m inimum number of up-la-datelamp sizes. These sam e lamps can often replace oldertypes and thereby enhance the perform ance of olderpro jectors. Th is group of lamps w ill simp] ify the dealer'sstockins problem and make the lamps more readilyava i labl e for re p lace m en! pu rposes. In crea s ed p ro du cti a nof projection lam ps utilizing presen t facilities and furtherquality im provem ents are among the many objectiveswhich are the logical result of standardization.G eneral Electric has, therefore, inaugurated a long-termsimplification program directed tow ards the ultim ateelim ination of obsolescent types and the consolidationof dem and on newer preferred types. There is nothingm andatory about this program . In no instance doesGeneral E lectric propose to im pose any hardship onowners 0 1 p ro je ctio n e qu ip men t. If there is a reasonwhy one of the preferred lamp types should not be used ,General Electric w ill do everyth ing possible to continuesupp lyin~ the type which is required . A ll GeneralE lectric Photo Lamp Dealers are fam iliar w ith this pro-gram , the broad details of which are briefly described Inth e fo llo win g p ara gra ph s.MOST manufacturers of projection equipm ent agreethat, in the fo rseeable futu .re, certain basic lamp wattagesw ill be adequate to m eet their requirem ents. These

include the 75 , 1 SO, and 300-w att sizes in the T-B andT-872 bu lbs w ith bayonet bases, and the 300, 500, 750,and 1000-watt sizes in T-10 and T-12 bulbs. In thoseinstances where the T-20 bulb is requ ired, the preferredsizes are 1000 and 1500 watts. The choice of the com-bination of watts and bulb size depends upon the typeof equipm ent and the ventilation available in the variousdevices.In most in stances, natural ventilation is adequate for1 SO watts in the T-8 bulb and 300 walls in the T-1 a bulb.W here higher wattages are desired in these bulb sizes,som e type of forced ventilation is required . to m aintainthe bulb and base temperatu res w ith in soilfe operatinglim its. The highest w attage bayonet base lamp w idely usedin m in iature slide projectors w ith w ell-designed forcedventilation is the 30D-w all, T -872 bulb pro jection lamp.Si m i larl y , w hen we II-desi gn ed forced venti Iation isprovided in the more pow erful slide pro jectors and the Band 16-mm motion picture projectors, the higher w attagemedium prefocus base 500, 750, and 1000-watt sizes inthe T -10 and T -12 bulbs are used.U sually one of the preferred watta.ges can be used w ithadvan tage in existing equipments, For instance, the75-watt projection lamp gives distinctly superior resu ltsin most devices which form erly used 50-w att lam ps.The SOO-wait, T -10 bulb projection lamp is favored asa replacem ent for the 400-watt size in m any older modelequipments. .Of course this does no t m ean that lamps can be substi-tuted w ithout regard for dim ensional and other lim itations.A few projectors, unfortunately , have space lim itationsor special light center length requ irem ents which canonly be satisfjed w ith specific lamp types. To aid you inthe selection of the proper lamp, consult your G eneralE lectric Photo Lam p Dealer, the pro jecto r m anufacturer,or the sales representatives o f the G eneral E lectricL am p D ivision.

G ...E Lamps designed for picture projection arecharacterized by the most advanced and exactin g tech.niques of lamp manufacture. In every type the dimensionsand form of the Ii g ht source are chosen to fi t the particularrequirements of some specific optical system or group ofsystems. For every type of projector, lamps o f highestpossible light output from a small source in a bulb ofminimum size are required, To th is end lamps aredesigned up to the safe limits of the materials involvedI t is only by the closest attention to materials and fabri.cation that the superior performance at this rna ximumefficiency is achieved.

PH "20A~' ' ' ' 9

The superlative quality of General Electric Projectionlamps is confirmed not only in laboratory tests but alsoby projector manu factu rers' preference.

The lamps with bayonet bases are used pri'ncipally inminiature slide projectors in the horne and srne Iler class-rooms with screen sizes up to four or five feet. The higherwattage lamps in this group should be used in equipmentproviding forced cooling to protect the slides and tomaintain safe operating limits for the bulb and base.

Where hi gher wattages are required, medium prefocusbase types are eveilab]e in the T.1 0 and T-12 bulbs. Suchlamps are used for the larger min ia:ture sl ide projectors,some lantern sl ide projectors, and 16mm motion pictureequipment. A high degree of forced venti!ation isimportant in this type of equipment in order to mainteintemperatures a.t " safe operating level for the base and bulb.Additional blower or fan cooling is desirable for slidessince they are exposed to high illumination levels formuch longer periods. than are pictures on motionpicture film.

For lantern slides, the T-20 bulb lamps - SOO-wattsin the short bulb and 1000-watts in the long bulb-are used when only natural ventilation is available.

General Electric also hasdv"il"ble a limit~d line oflamps for 35-mm motion picture projection. These specialsources ranging from 1000- to 2100watts are genera Ilyused for small theater projection and are not shown inthis catalog.

The General Electric Bulletin LD164 "Lamps fo rPicture Projectors," I ists the proper ;Iamp or lamps for usein all Iypesand makes of picture projectors.
