Slash operational costs and eliminate frequent bulb replacements with a lighting solution engineered for sustained performance and energy efficiency. The Sylvania 20914 PENTRON? ECOLOGIC Fluorescent Lamp delivers a precise 4100 Kelvin neutral white light while consuming only 14 watts, directly translating to lower electricity bills and a reduced carbon footprint for your facility.
This is not a generic tube; it is a specific tool for demanding commercial and institutional environments. Its design prioritizes measurable returns: a 25,000-hour average rated life at 3 hours per start means maintenance teams spend significantly less time on ladder work and inventory. Even with longer burn cycles of 12 hours per start, the life extends to 28,000 hours, ensuring years of reliable service in applications like office buildings, retail spaces, hospitals, and schools.
- Energy-Efficient Performance: At a nominal 14 watts, this T5 lamp provides a high initial lumen output of 1200 lumens. This 86 lumens-per-watt efficacy means you get brilliant illumination without the power draw of older T8 or T12 systems, offering immediate and ongoing savings on energy expenditures.
- Superior Color Rendering for Visual Tasks: A Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 85 ensures colors appear true and vibrant. This is critical for environments where color judgment is essential—such as graphic design studios, fabric stores, medical examination rooms, and art galleries—enhancing visual acuity and reducing eye strain.
- Optimized Light Consistency: The mean lumen output of 1140 at 25°C indicates excellent lumen maintenance over the lamp’s life. The light output stays consistently bright, preventing the dim, yellowing effect common in inferior fluorescents and maintaining a professionally lit space for the long term.
- Seamless Retrofit Compatibility: Featuring a standard Mini Bi-Pin (G5) base and a 24-inch nominal T5 shape, this lamp is a direct replacement for countless existing fixtures. No costly fixture modifications are required; simply swap the old tube for an instant upgrade in efficiency and light quality.
- Stable Color Temperature: The 4100K color temperature provides a cool, neutral white light that promotes alertness and focus. It is the industry standard for task lighting in offices and commercial applications, creating an environment that supports productivity without the harshness of higher Kelvin temperatures.
- Case of 40 for Operational Efficiency: Purchasing as a sealed case (SKU: XG944) simplifies procurement and inventory management for facility managers. The case dimensions (Length: 1.95 in, Width: 0.64 in, Height: 0.29 in) and total weight (5.234 lbs) are optimized for storage and distribution, reducing handling overhead.
The technical specification, Ordering Abbreviation FP14/841/ECO, encodes its core identity: a 14-watt, 4100K, ECOLOGIC lamp. This designation signals compliance with environmental standards and Sylvania’s commitment to sustainable manufacturing. The physical package—a case of 40—is priced at $585.48, establishing a clear per-lamp cost that facilitates budget forecasting and total cost of ownership analysis.
Specify this lamp for new construction or system overhauls where long-term reliability is non-negotiable. Its performance profile makes it indispensable for 24/7 operations like airports, hospitals, and manufacturing floors, where every hour of downtime or subpar illumination carries a tangible cost. The combination of high CRI and neutral white light also serves retail environments where merchandise must be displayed accurately to drive sales.
Choose the Sylvania 20914 PENTRON? ECOLOGIC for a quantifiable investment in your building’s operational efficiency. It delivers a specific, data-backed package of energy savings, minimized maintenance, and consistent, high-quality illumination that generic alternatives cannot match. This is a component designed to work quietly and effectively for years, allowing you to direct resources toward your core business, not your lighting maintenance.
