Technical Information No. DO 5646 Edition: 02/09- High Power Metal Halide Lamp valid HMI 24000 W/DXS Supersedes: 11/08 Product description The OSRAM HMI 24000W/DXS is the newest and largest HMI metal halide lamp. With a luminous flux of more than 2.3 million lumens and the daylight-like HMI color (6000K) this lamp type is particularly suitable for film and TV shooting. The new multiple foil sealing system ensures higher performance, especially enhanced thermal rugness in compact design ( same OML as HMI 18kW/DXS). Combined with the reliable XS-Technology, the thermal resistance is up to 450°C pinch temperature with nominal service life of 375 hours.
