Features
MASTERColour CDM Elite 942 lamps are
based on the latest Elite technology and
bring the following improvements compared
to standard CDM 4200K:
visible more and cleaner white
red rendering: visible deeper red
lumen output: +10%...+15%
lumen maintenance: up to +33%
lifetime +25% (= hrs)
new generation Elite lamps fit in existing
luminaires(*) and can run on EM gear
Benefits
Elite 942 brings a unique combination of:
- Excellent quality of light
- Lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
high punch and cool sparkle create
white as you have never seen white before
makes metallic and icy objects look
incredible sparkling
quick market introduction with existing
luminaires is possible
long life and high efficacy make
outdoor applications extra attractive
(*) in some cases existing reflectors might need
some adaption to get maximum LOR and optimal
light distribution.

Frequently asked questions
When will the new lamps be available?
The new Elite 942 lamps will become available from October 1st 2011 onwards.
Will CDM 942 continue to exist?
Yes, we will keep CDM 942 lamps in the portfolio.
Can this new Elite generation also run on Electromagnetic (EM) gear?
Yes, the new CDM-T Elite 942 lamps can run on both EL and EM gear (35W and 70W).
Will performance be different on EM gear?
We foresee less performance on EM gear in lumen maintenance and efficacy when we compare EL with EM gear. So far hrs is proven on EM gear. Target is hrs.
What is the benefit of relamping standard CDM with the new Elite generation?
Elite 942 lamps perform substantially better than normal CDM 942. See table below. Relamping from normal CDM 942 to Elite 942 gives more light (up to +15%) with superior maintenance (up to +33%), longer lifetime (+25%) and makes red look visibly better(*).
Will Elite 942 also become available in the energy saving versions 50W and 100W?
Yes, we are preparing an introduction of Elite W and 100W in 2012.
(*) in some cases existing reflectors might need some adaption to get maximum LOR and
optimal light distribution.
