OSRAM 93526 FXL - MR16 410W 82V GY5.3 Dichroic Lamp for Projectors and AV

OSRAM 93526 FXL - MR16 410W 82V GY5.3 Dichroic Lamp for Projectors and AV

The OSRAM 93526 (ANSI FXL) is a halogen lamp with an MR16 dichroic reflector designed for projection equipment and audiovisual applications requiring stable performance and accurate color. With a 2-pin GY5.3 base, 410W power rating, and 82V operating voltage, it offers a nominal luminous flux of 640 lm and a CRI of 100 , ensuring natural and consistent color reproduction throughout its lifespan. Its precision optics, thermal control of the dichroic reflector, and high-quality filament provide instant start-up, consistent light output, and compatibility with traditional dimming, all in a compact 51mm diameter (MR16) and 45mm length .

OSRAM manufactures this lamp to tight tolerances for integration into overhead projectors (OHP), presentation equipment, studio spotlights, and photo/optical applications. In addition to the standard model, an equivalent XENOPHOT/HLX variant (FXL/HL or FXL/HLX) is available, which uses xenon gas as the fill gas, achieving up to 10% more luminous flux with the same energy consumption compared to standard halogen lamps (availability depends on distribution channel and stock).

Main features

• MR16 (50.8 mm) dichroic reflector for better thermal management and useful light output.
• Power/Voltage: 410 W / 82 V.
• Base: GY5.3 (2 flat pins) for secure and precise mounting.
• Nominal luminous flux: 640 lm.
• Color Rendering Index (CRI): 100.
• Nominal service life: 75 hours (nominal conditions).
• Total length: 45 mm; diameter: 51 mm.
• Dimmable: Yes, with the typical halogen "amber shift".
• Ignition: instantaneous; almost constant flow throughout the lamp's life.
• Applications: AV projection, OHP, photography and stage/studio environments.

Product benefits

• Consistent color and brightness thanks to the quality of the filament and the alignment of the reflector.
• Precision optics that concentrate the light on the useful area of ​​the projector.
• High color fidelity (CRI 100) for content with graphics, text and photography.
• FXL standard format widely supported by classic projector manufacturers.
• Easy maintenance : direct replacement in GY5.3 lamp holder.

Use cases

• Overhead projectors in educational centers and training rooms.
• Classic office presentation and rear projection equipment.
• Spot lighting in studios, sets and technical photography using FXL lamps.
• Fiber optic equipment and instrumentation that accept MR16 FXL 82 V / 410 W.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is it compatible with my equipment? Check the manual or the original lamp to ensure the ANSI code is FXL , the base is GY5.3 , and the specifications are 82V/410W . If they match, it's compatible.
• What is the actual lifespan? The nominal lifespan is 75 hours under correct voltage and ventilation conditions. Overvoltage or insufficient cooling will reduce the lifespan.
• What is the color temperature? In this family of projection lamps, it is approximately 3300 K according to specialist distributors.
• Is there a "brighter" version? Yes, the HLX/XENOPHOT variant (when available) uses xenon gas and can offer up to +10% flow with the same consumption.
• Installation tip: Do not touch the glass with your fingers; use gloves or a lint-free cloth and clean any fingerprints with isopropyl alcohol.
• Common equivalents: GE 21613 FXL, Philips 23030-0 FXL, Ushio 1000636 FXL, among others (always check 82 V / 410 W and GY5.3 base).

Good usage and safety practices

• Install only in luminaires/equipment designed for halogens with adequate protection and ventilation.
• Do not exceed the nominal voltage (82 V). Overvoltage significantly shortens the service life.
• Avoid vibrations and shocks; fix correctly in the GY5.3 lamp holder.
• Do not look directly at the lit lamp and keep flammable materials away.
