A sodium vapour lamp does not include a capacitor in its construction. Any capacitor associated with this type of fixture will be found where the ballast is located and not in the lamp itself.

Can you use a 70 watt high pressure sodium bulb in a 100 watt ballast?
No. The bulb has to match the ballast wattage exactly. And you can't interchange different lamps (like metal halide) either. The ballast is specific to that wattage and lamp type. The bulb will either burn out quickly or just not work properly at all
If the ballast on a fluorescent light blows will the lamp still work?
If the ballast on a fluorescent light blows the lamp will not work.
What is the catalyst for sodium persulfate?
Hydrogen peroxide will work.
What is function of ignitor in metal halide lamp?
ignitor will work as a tublight stater
How does 4 tube fluorescent work?
A four tube fluorescent luminaire is just 4 separate fluorescent lamp circuits in one fitting. Look up 'how things work' etc to see a fluorescent lamp circuit.
How does ignitor in sodium vapour lamp work?
Similiar to a flourescent light. The ignitor provides a high voltage potential to excite the sodium gas within the bulb.
Will mercury vapour work in a sodium vapour fixture?
no
How can you tell if the halophane light you have is a metal halide or high pressure sodium?
If you have one or more of each type working, it is easy to tell the difference, a metal halide lamp produces a wide spectrum very white light, the high pressure sodium is a narrow spectrum light that is very yellow. If you just have the light fixture, and need to know what kind of lamp it is made for, the lamp type is often mentioned on the ballast nameplate or a small sticker near the lamp socket. If that does not work, a metal halide ballast will usually be two pieces, a transformer with a heavy laminated metal core, and a capacitor in a silver can. The sodium lamp ballast will have these also, but in addition it will have a lamp striker in a second silver can, or a plastic module. In other words Metal Halide ballast: 2 pieces, HPSodium ballast: 3 components.
How could a lamp or water pump work at night using a solar cell?
Anything attached directly to a solar cell will only work when the cell is putting out enough energy - or if the cell is getting enough sunlight. If there is no battery or capacitor attached between the solar cell and the lamp or water pump, for example, they will only work when the solar cell is receiving sunlight.
What if your washing machine capacitor does not work?
YES THERE ARE TWO (2): 1. STARTING CAPACITOR 2. RUNNING CAPACITOR
How much uranium can the flux capacitor hold?
The flux capacitor is now only a phantasy. Flux capacitor will not work with Uranium. It has to be Plutonium.
How does a getter work in a high pressure sodium lamp?
I believe it's there to remove impurities from within the outer glass envelope that would otherwise attack the arctube
Can capacitor work in dc?
Yes.
Can you replace 1.7 microFarad capacitor with 2 microFarad capacitor of capacitor start motor?
It should work okay as long as voltage rating is equal to or greater than the capacitor you are replacing.
Can you replace a 135D capacitor with a 138D capacitor?
its only three different so.......it should work! i think...
How does vapour compression work?
See my answer to~How does air conditiong work~ on this site.
Effect of shorting out the capacitor in a clamping circuit?
Any circuit using a capacitor will not work if the cap is short-circuited.
