Sealed Beam Lamps – PAR36 Emergency Light Bulbs for Egress Fixtures

Sealed beam lamps (PAR36) are the classic, hard-working replacement bulbs used in many PAR36 remote emergency lighting heads and commercial emergency light fixtures. Available in 6V, 12V, and 24V with spot or flood beam patterns, these halogen or LED sealed beams feature screw posts/spade terminals for fast swaps—perfect for keeping battery backup emergency lights ready for code-required operation.

PAR36 Form Factor 6V / 12V / 24V Spot or Flood Halogen or LED Screw Terminals Wet-Head Compatible*

Use sealed beam replacements to maintain legacy halogen systems or upgrade to LED sealed beam PAR36 for lower power draw and reduced relamping. Typical wattages include 6V 7W/9W, 12V 12W/18W, and 24V 12W, plus LED equivalents. Match lamp voltage and wattage to your fixture’s nameplate to protect batteries and ensure the required 90-minute emergency illumination in UL 924 luminaires.

How to Choose the Right PAR36 Sealed Beam

  • Voltage: Match 6V/12V/24V to the fixture or remote-capable emergency light power source.
  • Wattage / LED Equivalent: Follow the spec for runtime and spacing; LED versions reduce load and heat.
  • Beam Pattern: Spot for long, narrow throws (tall spaces); Flood for wide corridor coverage.
  • Lens / Face: Clear or patterned glass for desired distribution and glare control.
  • Terminals: Ensure screw post/spade terminals match your head style.

Working in tough environments? Pair sealed beams with wet-location emergency lights or NEMA-rated emergency fixtures that use gasketed PAR36 heads. For broader relamping needs, see our full emergency light bulbs and exit sign lamps selection.

💡 What is a sealed beam lamp?
A PAR36 “sealed beam” integrates the bulb, reflector, and lens in a single, rugged glass unit—ideal for emergency lighting heads that demand fast service, stable optics, and durable construction.

*Compatibility varies by head/fixture. Always verify lamp voltage, wattage, and terminal style against your unit’s nameplate or submittal.
