The new HMI 24000W/DXS displays its strengths especially in large-scale location shots. The double-base HMI 24000W/DXS owes its high performance of more than two million lumens to the recently developed sealing foil system with four molybdenum foils, which is also implemented in the current HMI 18000W/DXS. Together with OSRAM's eXtreme Seal technology the lamp's thermal resistance is especially impressive: the maximum permitted pinch temperature in the lamp is 450?C. The average lifespan of the HMI 24000W/DXS is around 375 hours.
The Single-base OSRAM HMI 1800W/SE XS are suitable for use as spotlights in TV and photo studios as well as in stagecraft. With the robust G38 base it enables new higher performance and compact spotlights to be developed with considerable efficiency in this power class. The eXtreme Seal technology in the HMI 1800W/SE XS also provides for a maximum permitted pinch temperature of 450?C.
