Energy Saving

SYLVANIAs lighting solutions provide

opportunities for you to significantly reduce your

power consumption. How significant? For your

museum where lights may be on 24 hours a day,

seven days a week, the percentage of electricity

used for lighting can be as high as 50 percent!

ECOLOGIC

All lamps in the ECOLOGIC family feature

standard or higher performance and reduction or

elimination of heavy metals. They are designed to

pass the current Federal TCLP test for hazardous

waste determination.

SYLVANIA SAFELINE

SYLVANIA SAFELINE Products help protect

the workplace and the environment without

sacrificing life or color performance. Improving

light quality can also impact the safety of

employees.

SYLVANIA TRU-COLOR

SYLVANIA TRU-COLOR lamps provide high

color rendering properties (80-100CRI) and

stable, reliable color over the life of the lamps.

Well-lit rooms, corridors, lobbies, and exhibit

areas give everything in your museum a brighter,

more natural and appealing look.

Long Life/Maintenance

Cost Savings

With long lasting SYLVANIA lighting solutions, youll

have fewer lamp and system replacements, which

means operating and maintenance savings. Burnedout lamps are unsightly and cause visitor and

employee dissatisfaction.

In every successful museum, proper lighting is a crucial element of effective exhibition design. Lighting

enhances the presentationmaximizing the viewers experience of a work of art. SYLVANIA lighting

solutions can help you achieve your aesthetic goals while delivering high performance and dramatic

energy savings.

Understanding the importance of balancing visual pleasure for the visitor and preservation of artwork from

overexposure to light, we have developed a range of lighting solutions specifically designed for museum

lighting applications. Especially important for museum lighting is the need to control light sources with the

use of dimmers, timers and occupancy sensors.

This guide was created to help you take advantage of the variety of SYLVANIA lighting solutions available

to you. When lighting a museum, here are the key areas to consider: Color Excellence, Energy Savings,

Long Life/Maintenance Cost Savings, ECOLOGIC Compatibility and Safety. Discover how SYLVANIA

lighting solutions can help your museum enjoy The Fine Art of Lighting.

A well-lit, well-maintained museum helps create

an atmosphere of comfort and well being. In

addition, studies have shown that comfortable staff are more

productive. Equally important, visitors who feel comfortable are

more likely to return. Proper lighting contributes to comfort in

significant ways. SYLVANIA TRU-COLOR lamps provide high

color rendering properties (80-100CRI) and stable, reliable color

over the life of the lamps. Well-lit lobbies, hallways, and exhibit

areas give your museum a bright, natural, friendlier appearance.
