The Norman Lamps PFA-150BT15/H/SW is a 150W BT15 halogen infrared heat lamp built for warming, food service, and industrial heating applications. Operating at 120V with an E26 medium screw base, it delivers 2800 lumens of soft white output and is rated for 3000 life hours of dependable performance. The BT15 bulged tubular shape measures 4.25 inches in length and 1.88 inches in diameter, making it a compact yet powerful halogen heat source suited to a wide range of commercial and food service fixtures.

This halogen lamp features a JTT-type double-envelope halogen capsule operating at high temperature, which is the basis of its infrared heat output. Its highest radiant power peaks fall in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, between 770 nm and 1 mm, meaning the lamp is designed primarily to deliver heat rather than illumination. At 150W, it meets the rated wattage threshold that classifies it as an infrared lamp under applicable definitions, and it is excluded from the U.S. Department of Energy General Service Incandescent Lamp (GSIL) regulation as a result of its infrared lamp designation.

The Tuff-Coat shatter-resistant treatment is a high-temperature PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) polymer coating applied directly to the glass envelope. This protective layer holds glass fragments together if the lamp is broken due to impact, thermal shock, or end-of-life failure, preventing shards from dispersing into food, products, or the surrounding work area. This makes the lamp well suited for food processing lines, commercial kitchens, warming stations, pharmaceutical manufacturing environments, and any other setting where glass contamination poses a safety or regulatory concern.

The halogen BT15 lamp operates at 1.25A on a standard 120V circuit and supports full dimming compatibility when used with a compatible dimmer switch. It reaches full brightness instantly with no warm-up period and maintains consistent output throughout its rated life. Available in a case quantity of 25 for ongoing commercial or institutional supply needs.
