For Long Burn Applications: UltraMax Instant-Start Electronic Ballasts"p" Intended for long burn cycle applications, and offers a lower cost option when switched less than five times per day. These ballasts can virtually 'read' voltage, and exceed 90 percent efficiency. Our patented instant-start electronic ballasts transform the power of light into efficiency and savings from store shelves to the installation site. Offered in dedicated or multi-volt (120-277V), these high- performance T8 instant-start ballasts also meet minimum efficiency requirements as established with the NEMA Premium ballast program. These ballasts are offered in ballast factors: low wattage (.77), normal light (.87), and high (gt;1.15). |
For Frequently Switched Applications: UltraStart Programmed Start Electronic BallastsUltraStart ballasts deliver longer life in frequently switched applications, such as those used with sensors. Our patented programmed-start electronic ballasts transform the power of light into efficiency and savings from store shelves to the installation site. An UltraStart ballast is ideal for extending lamp life, and provides over 100,000 starts before 50 percent lamp failure, while standard Instant start ballasts provide 7,000-13,000 starts before 50% lamp failure. UltraStart ballasts provide the same energy savings and convenience of instant start ballasts, but with the longer lamp life offered in a programmed start ballast. These ballasts are offered in ballast factors: programmed start x-low wattage (XL) (.60), low wattage (.71), normal light (.87), and high (gt;1.15). |
Understanding Fluorescent SystemsGE introduced the first practical fluorescent lamp in 1938. All fluorescent lamps operate on electrical control gear called a ballast. Today, electronic ballasts have continued to replace the magnetic designs that were common previously. The 4-foot T8 lamp on an electronic ballast is the most common system. The generic version of this lamp is called the F32T8 and in recent years, energy saving reduced wattage lamps like the F28T8 and the F32T8/25W have become popular. These lamps typically operate on Instant Start (IS) or Programmed Rapid Start (PRS) ballasts and both types of ballasts are available in a variety of ballast factors ranging from 0.60 to 1.18. |
