Application Notes
TITAN
• The best choice when constant
crisp white light is required.
• Hard dichroic coating makes
these lamps ideal for heat
sensitive merchandising.
• UV-control capsule reduces
fading on UV-sensitive
merchandising and art.
TITAN XP
• Same technical performance of
TRU-AIM Titan but with superior
6000-hour lamp life.
IR
• MR16 IR lamps offer a reduction
in energy consumption or
significantly higher luminous
intensity.
• All the technical advantages
and performance of the 50W
TRU-AIM Titan for only 37 watts.
The 50W Tru-Aim IR lamp is a
replacement for 65W or 71W
consistent color reflector lamps.
BRILLIANT
• Prevents fixtures overheating,
short transformer life and socket
problems.
• At a 5-foot distance the
temperature of the beam is the
same as dichroic coated lamps.
• UV-control capsule reduces
fading on UV-sensitive
merchandising and art.
MR11/STANDARD
• A cost competitive product that
provides a smooth, even beam
• UV-control capsule reduces
fading on UV-sensitive
merchandising and art.

Voltage %
This chart shows that increasing the operating
voltage above the rated value increases the light
output but significantly reduces lamp life.
On the other hand, reducing operating voltage
increases lamp life, but reduces light output and
energy efficacy.
The UV-control quartz capsule in TRU-AIM
lamps reduces UV radiation.
