Energy Efficiency Without
Costly Alterations
Migrate from T8 to T5 without
Changing The Luminary
MORE THAN 50% SAVING ON YOUR
LIGHT BILL
A unique opportunity to contribute to CO2
emissions reduction!
Each Kw/h saved means 300gr (10.5 oz) of CO2 less released to the atmosphere!
Electro-Magnetic Ballast. Uses between 7 and 16 Watts.
Electronic Ballast. Uses approximately 1.2 Watts.
T12 38mm Ø fluorescent tube. First installations in the 1930s.
T8 26mm Ø fluorescent tube. Became more common in the 1980s.
T5 16mm Ø fluorescent tube. As of early 1990s.• But…
It is shorter and needs a new luminary fitting ($ $ $!). It only works with an electronic ballast.
SOME BASIC CONCEPTS
In Europe more than 90% of the more than 3 year old buildings use the T8/T12 illumination systems with electromagnetic ballasts.
Even some new constructions are still done this way!
What is Eco-Tubo®?
IT IS AN ADAPTOR WHICH ALLOWS THE USE OF THE NEW TECHNOLOGY T5
TUBES TO BE USED IN EXISTING FITTINGS (T8/T12).
THE T5 TUBE IS SHORTER THAN THE T8/T12 TUBES AND THEREFORE NEEDS
AN ADAPTOR.
IT INCLUDES THE ELECTRONICS NECESSARY FOR THE NEW
GENERATION T5.
THE COMBINATION OF ADAPTOR + TUBE FULFILS THE SAME FUNCTION IN
FLUORESCENT TUBES AS THE “LOW CONSUMPTION LIGHT BULBS” IN MOST
HOUSE HOLDS.
What does Eco-Tubo® do?
IT REDUCES THE ELECTRIC CONSUMPTION (IN ILLUMINATION) BY HALF.IT REDUCES YOUR CO2 EMISSIONS BY HALF.IT GIVES A BETTER QUALITY OF LIGHT WITH WARM START IGNITION, WITHOUT FLICKERING AND WITHOUT NOISE OR STROBOSCOPIC EFFECT.
An Economical and Ecological Solution
Protection of the environment:
The T5 tubes contain 78% less glass and phosphorous than the
T8 tubes.T5 tubes contain only 3mg
mercury, as opposed to 15mg for the T12.
No harmful rays emission, since electromagnetic discharge has
been eliminated.Lower consumption and higher
efficiency reduce the emission of CO2, SO2 and NO2.
Cost advantages:
Minimal installation costs. No alterations needed.
Work does not need to be interrupted during installation.
Lower maintenance costs due to longer life-span of the T5
tubes. Starter caps costs are
eliminated. More work productivity under
better light. More efficient use of energy.

The lamps included in the Eco-Tubo® combination are available in the following colors: 830 (warm white); 840
(cool white); 865 (day light)
How much do I save, and what is the ROI?
Try out our Savings and ROI calculator, available in “Downloads”. It’s easy!
Eco-Tubo® normally pays off by itself, through your savings, in less than 12 months, so it does not affect your overall yearly budget. LEASE
PURCHASE arrangements also available.
How Reliable is Eco-Tubo®? The adaptor has a standard 2 year warranty period, optionally expandable to 5 years, enquire about conditions. Eco-Tubo® has been sold in the international market since 2006, with over 2 million units installed.Eco-Tubo®’s continuous efforts in Research, Development and Innovation (R+D+i), concentrated on ONE SINGLE PRODUCT (EBM), make our product the most reliable available today. Stringent EU T.U.V. Rheinland Nº CC 50131734, CE, EMC and SABS certifications are all available upon request and currently valid.Each EBM unit is burn-tested for 2 hours before packaging, QA is not done through sampling.
4. Disable the PFC condenser if present in the luminary
Installation Instructions
1. Switch off power for the work zone 2. Remove the old tube 3. Remove the starter cap
5. Insert Eco-Tubo®6. Turn it into position
7. Re-establish power
The whole operation will take you less than 3 minutes!
When you install Eco-Tubo®, you instantly modernize your lighting system from the obsolete T8/T12 to the new
generation T5 system with electronic ballast.
The most economical way to upgrade your lighting
No fittings replacement Your maintenance personnel can perform the replacement Over 50% savings considering energy efficiency and LUX output 2 year warranty on the adaptor (5 Year optional) Longer tube life (30.000 hours) Eco-Tubo® is supplied with the GE LongLast™ T5 tube included
