Frequently Asked Questions

What fluorescent system does the Sylvania 42346 replace, and how much energy does it save?

The 42346 replaces a 2-lamp F32T8 fixture with a QHE ballast drawing 29W. At 20W and 3200 lumens, it delivers a 31% reduction in energy consumption with no reduction in light output. No new fixture is required.

Can I adjust the color temperature after the bar is installed?

Yes — the 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K CCT is field-selectable and can be changed after installation by accessing the selector on the bar. One SKU covers all three color temperature specifications.

What dimming systems and controls are compatible with the 42346?

The bar uses 0-10V dimming from 20–100% and is compatible with the LEDVANCE EMBB wireless control module (item 61097). The 12V auxiliary output on the driver enables easy addition of wired or wireless occupancy sensors without additional power wiring.

What voltage does this bar require, and can it be used in damp or humid locations?

The 42346 operates on universal 120-347V input, covering virtually all North American commercial wiring configurations. It is cETLus listed for damp locations, making it suitable for humid indoor environments and covered outdoor areas — not direct wet/rain exposure.

Does the Sylvania 42346 qualify for utility rebates, and which driver do I need?

Yes — the 42346 is DLC 5.1 Standard/Premium listed, qualifying it for utility rebate programs in most U.S. states. Check your local utility’s rebate database before purchasing. A compatible LEDVANCE driver is required and sold separately: item 75908 supports 1–3 bars (13/17/20W selectable), item 75909 supports 2–4 bars (20/30/40W selectable).

Our initial order was lost in shipment and Bees Lighting was great to work with on this matter. Great customer service. Will definitely do business with them again when the need arises.
