How Sylvania's Liteline Grou p Relamping Flan Can Bring You lmportant Savings on Your Total Gost of Lighting
If you've ever stopped to analyze your TCL (Total Cost of Lighting), you know that it generally breaks down into Cost of Lamp 10/o, Cost of
Maintenance Labor 20% and, Cost of Power 70/o.

As you've undoubtedly experienced, it takes 20 to 30 minutes to replace a dead lamp with a new one. The cost of replacing that lamp often exceeds the lamp price itself. Plant production and office work slump . . . sales are interrupted. For, as you know, as soon as maintenance men appear with ladders, workers stop to watch.

Here's how Sylvania's Group Relamping Plan, using the revolutionary new 9000-hour" Li.feli,ne Fluorescent Lamp in its unique new Cuddy-pack can bring you substantial new savings on your TCL savings that can add up to hundreds or thousands of dollars depending upon the size of your installation. What's more, Sylvania backs up the Lifeline lamp with its exclusive money-back Certifi,ed Performance Policy. These four factors make up Sylvania's 4-Point Lifeline Program for Extra-Value Fluorescent Lightinc . . give you more lighting value than you've ever had before . . . al no extra cost.

tematically replace all the lamps at the same time just before they start to burn out with increasing frequency, cutting replacement time to only 3 minutes per lamp or a cost of only about 15d per lamp.

Lifeline give you all this extra lighting at no extra cost, but it actually consumes approximately 1.2 watts less electricity than competitive 40-watt lamps. In fact, through 9000 hours of operation, this amounts to 10.8 KWH less power consumed or a 3/o wattage saving per lamp. Based on the average industrial rate of 1.51 per KWH, this gives you a wattage saving of 161 per lamp.

A simplified time schedule for Sylvania group relamping intervals for typical applications is listed in Table II "Typical Group Replacement Intervals." For budgetary purposes, most modern maintenance people determine the group relamping interval (in years) which applies to their specific usage. These intervals may vary in different locations throughout your operation due to varied usage conditions such as manufacturing area, office area. However, they may be modified to meet your installation needs . . . or a specific group relamping program can be developed for you.

the group relamping interval established under the plan you have selected, as listed in Table II. Where the lighting system has been operating for some time, with 20% or more of the lamps having burned out, you should group relamp. Save 20/o of the best-looking lamps for spot replacements. Future group relamping would be as scheduled in Table II under the plan you have selected. For example, under the Lifeline Group Replacement Plan at 85% rated.life, you would group relamp one-shift areas every 31/2 lears, two-shift areas
every 2t/2 years. If your installation has a mixture of old and new lamps, and some ready to go dead, it is most economical to group relamp one area, one section or one floor at a time. Save 20/o of the best-looking lamps for spot replacement in the remaining areas, sections or floors. Each month, group relamp another area, section or floor, in each case saving 20% of the best appearing lamps for spot replacements. This way your entire installation will be converted to a group relamping schedule and at no big initial outlay of capital.
