OSRAM HSR & HSD
The perfect stage for your creativity

The rugged and compact design of the lamp and the thermal and mechanical stability of the internal components ensure simple handling and safe operation, even under difficult conditions. A patented filling system is used for the HSD® 575/72 and HSD® 250/78 which considerably reduces devitrification. A newcomer to this family is the HSD® 250/80. It has a colour temperature of 8000 K and provides a cool bluish white light.

The HSR® 575/60, HSR® 575/72 and HSD® 575/72 have all been upgraded with improved cold start properties. These lamps require a starting pulse of only 1.5 kV so they will start reliably even with weak igniters. HSR® and HSD® from OSRAM are single-ended, non-hot restrikeable metal halide lamps with outer bulbs for creative effect and architecture lighting.

The stage is set for HSR® and HSD®. HSR® and HSD® provide the right special effects for night clubs, TV studios, pop concerts, musicals and theatre productions and also for illuminating architectural features.


Ideal for entertainment:
HSR® with extra high luminous efficacy

• Extra high luminous efficacy of up to 90 lm/W
• Low devitrification of the discharge bulb wall
• Constant luminous intensity and colour temperature throughout the life of the lamp
• Daylight character (6000 K) and “bright light” character (7200 K)
• Can be operated on ECGs or chokes
• Simple and reliable cold starting
• Four wattages from 400 to 1200 W


Ideal for architainment:
HSD® with extra long life

• Extra long average life of 2000 to 3000 hours
• Low devitrification of the discharge bulb wall
• Constant luminous intensity and colour temperature throughout the life of the lamp
• Daylight character (6000 K) and “bright light” character
(7000 K – 8000 K)
• Can be operated on ECGs or chokes
• Simple and reliable cold starting
• Four wattages from 150 to 575 W
• Fewer luminaires for the sameamount of light, resulting in
reduced costs
• G 12 base: compatible with standard 150 W ceramic lamps
• Can be used as upgrades in existing luminaires: the design, dimensions and electrical data are compatible with standard single-ended ceramic lamps


Your benefit:
Special features of the HSD® 150/70:
• “Bright light” character at 7000 K
• Innovative short-arc technology with an electrode gap of only 5.5 mm
• High luminance of 15,000 cd/cm2: particularly effective  in luminaires with optical systems (e.g. condenser lenses)
• High efficiency: more light for the same power consumption
• UV filter quartz: reduced material stresses, greater operational safety
• Universal operating position: luminaires can be positioned and moved without restriction; ideal for moving-head spotlights
• Long average life, typical of HSD® lamps, of 3000 hours (if operated on an ECG)
• Simple operation with standard electronic or conventional control gear: Optimum system operation with POWERTRONIC® PTU 150/220-240 electronic control gear from OSRAM
