OSRAM Baby SharXS HTI 250 W/D5/80 - SFc10-4 Short Arc Metal Halide Lamp for Shows

OSRAM Baby SharXS HTI 250 W/D5/80 - SFc10-4 Short Arc Metal Halide Lamp for Shows

The OSRAM Baby SharXS HTI 250 W/D5/80 is a short-arc HID lamp designed for professional entertainment lighting applications: concerts , clubs and discos , stage and theater , studio/TV/film, and architectural lighting . Its compact burner generates very high luminance (≈30,000 cd/cm²) and a focused beam with a luminous flux of 19,000 lm , a color temperature of 8,000 K , and a CRI > 85. It operates on 95 V AC at 3.3 A , supports hot-restart , and requires forced cooling to ensure stability and a long lifespan. The Baby SharXS format (93 mm) and SFc10-4 base facilitate integration into moving heads and compact projectors; the "Any" burn-in position allows for installation in any orientation.

Main features

• Short arc with a 5.0 mm gap for maximum luminance and high-impact effects.
• Output and color : 19,000 lm , 8,000 K , CRI > 85 ; "cool daylight" appearance light.
• Electrical : 250 W , 95 V , 3.3 A ; ignition 2.0 kVp (cold) / 20 kVp (hot) .
• XS Construction : eXtreme Seal technology that withstands up to 450°C in pinching.
• Compact dimensions : Ø 16 mm , length 93 mm , LCL 35 mm , weight 26 g .
• Professional operation : forced cooling , burn position: Any , nominal life 3,000 h .
• Precise installation : SFc10-4 base pre-focused for correct positioning in the optics.

Product benefits

• Maximum brightness on stage thanks to the very high luminance of the short arc.
• Consistent color throughout lifespan, suitable for mixing with LEDs and other sources.
• Easy integration into compact luminaires (93 mm Baby SharXS format) and free orientation.
• Availability : hot re-ignition and robust design with XS sealing.

Use cases

• Concerts and tours : intense beams, defined gobos and long-range effects.
• Club/disco : dynamic effects with high brightness requirements.
• Theatre, TV and cinema : high performance spot/beam/wash luminaires.
• Architecture and architainment : accent lighting and texture projection in public spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is it dimmable? Dimming HID lamps is generally not recommended; level control is achieved with the luminaire's shutter. Always follow the equipment manual.
• Does it need ventilation? Yes, forced cooling (fan) to keep the clamping within thermal limits.
• How is it installed? With a pre-focused SFc10-4 base; handle by the base and avoid touching the bulb.
• Does it generate UV? Yes. It must only be operated in enclosed housings with UV filters and appropriate protection.
