Professional Daylight Source

The OSRAM HMI 575w SEL G22 is a metal halide discharge lamp built for film, television and stage professionals who require accurate daylight simulation. Its 6000K colour temperature matches natural daylight, while a colour rendering index of 90 ensures faithful colour reproduction for camera work.

Thermal and Power Characteristics

The lamp draws 575 watts and produces 49000 lumens from a compact arc tube containing a mercury and metal halide blend. Rated life is 1000 hours, and the design supports reliable hot restarts after brief power interruptions during production.

Upgrade Considerations

This unit replaces lower-output HMI lamps or tungsten fixtures where daylight balance and high efficacy are required. The jump is worthwhile when a production needs consistent 6000K output with strong colour fidelity for large-screen projection or exterior lighting setups.

Questions about this item

How do I install the G22 base without damaging the arc tube?

Align the two pins with the socket slots, press straight in until the ceramic base seats fully, then twist a quarter-turn to lock; forcing it at an angle cracks the arc tube.

When will the lamp need replacement?

Plan on a new lamp after 1000 operating hours; output drops noticeably and hot-restart reliability falls off near that point.

What limits output during a long show?

The 575 watt rating and 1000 hour life mean colour shift and lumen loss appear first during sustained use.
