70W double-ended metal halide lamp with an Rx7s base. Producing approximately 6,800 lumens of natural daylight 4000K illumination, this HID lamp is ideal for floodlights, retail display lighting, architectural lighting, showrooms, galleries, and commercial outdoor applications.
What it is
The 70W Rx7s Double-Ended Metal Halide Lamp is a compact high-intensity discharge (HID) lamp designed to deliver bright, natural daylight illumination with excellent colour rendering for commercial, architectural, and display lighting applications.
Its compact double-ended quartz construction maximises reflector efficiency and provides precise optical control, while the Rx7s base ensures secure installation in compatible double-ended metal halide luminaires. Producing approximately 6,800 lumens at 4000K, this lamp delivers crisp, natural white light that offers significantly better colour rendering than high-pressure sodium lamps, making it ideal for applications where visibility and colour accuracy are essential.
Unlike self-ballasted lamps, this metal halide lamp requires compatible HID control gear, including a ballast and ignitor, for safe and correct operation.
Use Cases / Applications
Ideal for commercial, industrial, and architectural lighting applications, including:
- Floodlights
- Retail display lighting
- Shopfronts
- Showrooms
- Museums
- Art galleries
- Exhibition halls
- Architectural lighting
- Building façade lighting
- Security lighting
- Commercial outdoor lighting
- Existing luminaires designed for 70W Rx7s Double-Ended Metal Halide lamps
Key Benefits
- Produces approximately 6,800 lumens
- Natural daylight 4000K illumination
- Excellent colour rendering (CRI ≥90)
- Compact double-ended design maximises reflector efficiency
- Rated life of approximately 12,000 hours
- Rx7s base provides secure installation
- Excellent replacement for commercial floodlights and display lighting
- Ideal where colour recognition and presentation are important
Metal halide lamps generate light through an electrical discharge inside a metal halide arc tube. Compared with high-pressure sodium lamps, they produce a whiter, more natural light with significantly improved colour rendering, making them well suited to floodlighting, retail, industrial, and architectural applications.
Safety Compliance
- Requires compatible 70W metal halide 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 Rx7s metal halide lamps
- Operate only in enclosed luminaires where specified by the manufacturer
- Isolate power before installation or replacement
- Dispose of responsibly through an approved HID lamp recycling programme due to its mercury content
