New museum items



OK-2/1 (Polam)

Polish industrial luminaire (production from the late Socialist era or the beginning of the rampant democracy of the 90s).



НСП02-100-Р51-01-У5 (Эпос)

Sorting through the rubble of "very necessary things" near the garage, in a heap of ferrous metal I discovered several interesting objects of the USSR era. Among them there were two fixtures: one with an aluminum body, which looked very decent, and the other with an "iron" one and looked very wretched. As a fan of Soviet artifacts, I decided to give the second fixture a second life. I soaked the locks with WD-liquid, sanded the case, washed the shade, and under the layers of dirt and rust a Soviet industrial fixture NSP-02/P51-01-U5, produced in 1978, was discovered.



ДРИШ 575-4 (Лисма)

DRISH 575 (ДРИШ 575), the Soviet optical metal halide lamp. It was used in light guns and stage effects. Works with forced air cooling only.



CMH-ED 70W/942/ED55 (XGY)

Chinese metal halide lamp manufactured by XGY Light.

A fairly high-quality lamp, both in performance and in work. Of the features, a double getter can be noted.

Was bought from the Chinese at one of the exhibitions dedicated to lighting.



ENRICH 230V 60W (GE)

An interesting and rather rare lamp from GENERAL ELECTRIC. Classic Softone from the 90s with a blue-violet hue that achieves a slight rise in color temperature. The light is soft and looks good in open luminaires.

This sample was purchased from a local electrical store as a flower growing lamp where it was sold only as a pair per pack.



ДРИ 175 (СЭЛЗ)

The 175W metal halide lamp. Color (color temperature) at a rated current is just over 4000K. Nice sample for the collection.



NAV-E 400W (Osram)

The 400W sodium lamp in an ellipsoidal frosted bulb. Thanks to the matte finish, the light does not hit the eyes that hard. The color rendering has not been improved in any way, and therefore it is better to use this lamp only in industrial facilities.



LRJ 400W (Polamp)

The 400W ellipsoidal metal halide lamp. At rated current, the light is very similar to an incandescent halogen lamp, but when operating from a standard choke, this lamp cannot enter the normal mode.



ДРОТ 2000 (Разряд)

Metal halide lamp for irradiation of plants. Notable for the shape of the flask. To power this lamp, you need a 380V supply and an appropriate ballast. I managed to run it at 1/3 of the power from LATR regulated transformer through a choke for DRL 1000 and IZU. To start, I also had to additionally touch a lamp with a plasma ball. It is not very correct to judge the color of the glow in this mode, but it is very pleasing to the eye and is well reproduced in the photo No. 3.



HL2-3,8-400 (Telpod)

Series compensating capacitor manufactured by Telpod. These were put in 2 pieces in parallel, working with the 1UBE80 ballasts.
