Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a high-pressure sodium discharge lamp (1) with evacuated outer envelope (3) for operation at low frequency, in particular for higher brightness at a color temperature between 1800 and 2250 K. The higher brightness can be achieved by a wall loading higher than 24 w/cm<2>, which wall loading value can be permitted if the ratio of the discharge gap to the discharge tube inner diameter D/d is less than 5.0. <IMAGE>
