OSRAM HMI DIGITAL 800 W - Single-ended G22 HMI lamp with UV-Stop for cinema, TV and stage

OSRAM HMI DIGITAL 800 W - Single-ended G22 HMI lamp with UV-Stop for cinema, TV and stage

The OSRAM HMI DIGITAL 800 W is a single-ended metal halide HMI lamp designed for film, television, and live performance productions requiring stable daylight (≈6,300 K) , high output, and professional reliability. Its G22 base , hot restrike , and optimization for high-frequency electronic ballasts (up to 1,000 Hz or more) make it a solid choice for studio or location shooting and stage fixtures. Integrated UV-Stop (UVS) technology reduces ultraviolet radiation emission and improves safety, while its CRI > 90 ensures natural color reproduction on camera. With a nominal luminous flux of 69,000 lm , a 1,000 h average lifespan , and a universal burn-in position , it offers the flexibility and performance needed in demanding environments.

Main features

• Daylight : approximate color temperature of 6,300 K to match natural lighting.
• High performance : 69,000 lumens with CRI > 90 for true colors.
• Optimized for high speed : operation with high frequency electronic ballasts (≈1,000 Hz or more) to reduce camera flicker.
• Hot restart : Hot start to minimize waiting times on set.
• UV-Stop (UVS) : doped quartz jacket that reduces UV emissions.
• Efficiency : up to 100 lm/W according to the HMI DIGITAL family.
• Robust construction : designed for transport and intensive use.
• Compatibility : G22 socket, single-ended and universal burn position .

Benefits for the professional user

• Consistent image : High color stability and CRI > 90 promote natural skin tones and accurate colors with various cameras and lenses.
• Fewer missed taps : flicker reduction with high-frequency ballasts, even at high-speed .
• Quick start-up : hot restart and compatible dimmer (up to approx. 40% with suitable electronic ballasts) facilitate quick changes.
• Enhanced safety : UV-Stop mitigates exposure to UV radiation when used within suitable light fixtures.
• Versatility : can be used in any orientation and is widely compatible with equipment that uses G22.

Use cases

• Film and television : key light, fill or backlight with a daylight appearance in studio or outdoors.
• Advertising and professional photography : sets with high chromatic demands and flicker control.
• High-speed filming : commercials, tabletop and action with high frame rate cameras.
• Stage and events : dramatic effects and projection of intense beams in theaters and concerts.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is it compatible with any ballast? It is recommended to use high-frequency electronic ballasts certified for 800W HMIs; these provide flicker reduction and more stable attenuation.
• Can it be dimmed? Yes, with compatible electronic ballasts it can be dimmed by approximately 40% while maintaining color stability.
• Can I use it in any position? Yes, the burn position is universal .
• What safety precautions should I take? Always operate in enclosed luminaires designed for HMIs; handle with protective gear due to high internal pressure and UV emission.
• What is its equivalent to other models? It is the single-ended version (G22) within the OSRAM HMI DIGITAL line with UV-Stop; it replaces previous HMI/SE models in many compatible fixtures.

Usage and safety recommendations

• Allow initial warm-up before taking the picture to stabilize color and output.
• Avoid touching the bulb with your hands; any residue can shorten its lifespan.
• Check the electrical (800 W, 95 V, 8.4 A) and thermal compatibility of the projector.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding hot restart and ventilation of the equipment.
