Part of the Ontario Hydro Collection. This collection was acquired by the CSTM in 1992. It documents the material culture of the history of electricity and its uses. Fait partie de la collection Hydro-Ontario. Cette collection acquise par le musée des sciences et de la technologie du Canada en 1992 documente la culture matérielle de l’histoire de l’électricité et ses usages.
Function
To cover the packaging of a lamp bulb and to identify its manufacturer and model. Couvrir l’emballage d’une ampoule et identifier son fabricant et son modèle.
Technical
Lighting produced by an electric arc obtained with metallic sodium. The first sodium bulb was invented by Westinghouse in 1920. OSRAM improved the quality of the glass used in 1931, however Philips began commercial production in 1932. This bulb was made with new glass developed by Philips in 1955 that improved the resistance to sodium vapour. Previous to this, sodium bulbs discoloured quickly. This change was a great improvement, but the bulbs needed to be installed correctly in order to avoid the sodium travelling through the tube and depositing a mirrored finish on the inside, reducing light transmission. Light obtained was orange in colour, which was less harsh than white light. Éclairage produit par un arc électrique obtenu avec du sodium métallique. La première ampoule au sodium a été inventée par Westinghouse en 1920. OSRAM améliora la qualité du verre en 1931. Toutefois, la compagnie Philips en fit la production commerciale à compter de 1932. Cette ampoule est faite du nouveau verre mis au point par Philips en 1955 qui améliorait la résistance à la vapeur de sodium. Avant, les ampoules au sodium se ternissaient rapidement. Ce changement était une belle amélioration mais l’ampoule devait être installée correctement afin d’éviter que le sodium voyage dans le tube et ne forme une surface miroitante qui réduisait l’efficacité d’éclairage. L’éclairage obtenu de couleur orange, est moins difficile pour la vision que la lumière blanche.
