70W high-pressure sodium lamp with an E27 Edison Screw base and elliptical outer bulb. Producing approximately 5,800 lumens of warm amber 2000K illumination, this HID lamp is ideal for security lighting, street lighting, small industrial sites, warehouses, agricultural buildings, and commercial outdoor applications.
What it is
The 70W E27 Elliptical High-Pressure Sodium Lamp is a high-intensity discharge (HID) lamp designed to provide efficient, long-life illumination for commercial, municipal, agricultural, and industrial lighting applications.
Its coated elliptical outer bulb delivers a softer and more evenly distributed light than a clear tubular lamp, while the E27 Edison Screw (ES) base allows installation into compatible HID luminaires designed for lower-wattage HPS systems. Producing approximately 5,800 lumens of characteristic amber 2000K illumination, this lamp is ideal where energy efficiency, long service life, and reliable outdoor lighting are more important than colour accuracy.
Unlike standard household lamps, this HPS lamp requires compatible 70W HID control gear, including a ballast and ignitor, for safe and correct operation.
Use Cases / Applications
Ideal for commercial, municipal, agricultural, and industrial lighting applications, including:
- Security lighting
- Street and roadway lighting
- Car parks
- Warehouse exteriors
- Industrial yards
- Agricultural buildings
- Farm security lighting
- Loading bays
- Building perimeter lighting
- Commercial outdoor lighting
- Municipal lighting
- Existing luminaires designed for a 70W E27 HPS lamp
Key Benefits
- Produces approximately 5,800 lumens
- High luminous efficacy of approximately 83 lm/W
- Long rated life of approximately 20,000–24,000 hours
- Suitable for prolonged nightly operation
- Opal elliptical bulb provides softer, more diffused illumination
- E27 Edison Screw base suits compatible low-wattage HPS luminaires
- Cost-effective replacement for existing HID installations
- Proven technology for roadway, security, municipal, and industrial lighting
High-pressure sodium lamps generate light through an electrical discharge inside a sodium-filled ceramic arc tube. This technology produces the familiar amber-gold illumination associated with conventional street lighting while delivering excellent efficiency and long operating life.
Safety Compliance
- Requires compatible 70W HPS control gear
- Requires a compatible ballast and ignitor
- Must not be connected directly to mains voltage
- Allow sufficient warm-up time before reaching full brightness
- Hot restrike may require a cooling period before restarting
- Install only in luminaires designed for 70W HPS lamps
- Isolate power before installation or replacement
- Dispose of responsibly through an approved HID lamp recycling programme
- Requires compatible 70W ballast and ignitor
- Replace only with the same wattage, base type, lamp type, and compatible control gear to ensure safe operation and optimum performance.
