They have built-in filament windings that energize the low-voltage cathodes in rapid start lamps. Because electrodes are continuously heated, less voltage is required to strike an arc through a rapid start lamp than a slimline one. • Slimline Ballasts Our slimline models are designed for use with single-pin slimline lamps. They do not require the use of starters. These ballasts deliver a high starting voltage to the lamps, enabling an arc to strike through the tube without preheating the lamp cathodes (which are specially constructed to withstand the shock). • Circline Ballasts These products are available in 430mA rapid start and preheat types, designed for use with circline and conventional lamps. All circline socket wires are fully sleeved. • Trigger-Start Ballasts These ballasts are designed for use with general fluorescent lamps and do not require the use of starters. They contain preheat windings which allow regular lamp filaments to be heated in one second. However, they require a higher open-circuit voltage than rapid start ballasts. • Preheat Ballasts These units are designed for use with general fluorescent lamps and require the use of starters. These ballasts deliver an open-circuit voltage high enough to activate the starter to preheat lamp filaments to a temperature approximately 1750ºF. After a few seconds the starter opens the filament circuit. This provides an additional power surge to enable an electrical arc to strike through the lamp and ignite it. Lamp current is then limited by the ballast to an operating level proper for the lamp. • Export (50/60Hz) Ballasts Our export product offering consists of a variety of one and two-lamp models for rapid start, preheat, high output, slimline, and 1500mA lamps. Included in this product line are ballasts for 50 and 60Hz applications, including 110, 120, 127, 220, 230, 240, and 277 volts. Many of these models are available with resetting thermal applications.

Traditionally 2-pin lamps are designed for magnetic ballasts. Class B An operating temperature classification for electrical components established by UL. Class B allows operation up to 130ºC. Grounding The connection on an electrical conductor with the earth, so that the electricity passed off into it. Ballast cases must be grounded. Auto-Transformer A transformer in which the primary and secondary coils are electrically connected together. Most ballasts use this circuit to make them smaller, less costly, and more efficient. Class H An operating temperature classification for electrical components established by UL. Class H allows operation up to 180ºC. Harmonic Distortion Distortion of an AC waveform caused by multiples of the fundamental frequency (harmonics). Odd triplen harmonics (thirds, ninths, etc.) may result in large currents on the neutral line in a four wire Wye three-phase system. Ballast Factor (Light Output) A measure of the light produced by a lamp operated by a ballast compared to the light produced by a laboratory standard lamp operated by a reference ballast. Expressed as a percentage. Class P The UL classification for thermally protected ballasts. Indoor fluorescent fixtures are required to have thermally protected ballasts. Internal thermal protector removes input power whenever specified temperature limits are exceeded, about 100-110ºC. Ballast Losses This is the wattage loss internal to the ballast and is power not used for producing light. These losses are dissipated as heat. Ballast losses account for most of the difference between lamp efficiency and system efficiency. Compact Fluorescent A family of single-ended fluorescent lamps that are self-supporting. They are usually arranged in twin, quad, or hex shapes with a variety of base arrangements. BEF (Ballast Efficiency Factor) This is the ratio of ballast light output to the input power. Used to compare different ballasts on a light output to power consumption basis. BEF = % light output / input power (watts) Case Temperature The hottest spot on the outside of the ballast case. Cathode Heat The voltage or power supplied to the lamp cathodes (electrodes) in rapid start and preheat start circuits. This voltage brings the cathodes to the proper operating temperature. In rapid start circuits, the cathode heat voltage is nominally 3.6V. Circuit Interrupting Lampholder (Disconnect Lampholder) A safety device required by UL when certain voltage limits are exceeded. Consists of a lampholder that incorporates a switch that opens and closes when lamps are inserted or removed from the lampholder. Input power is removed from the ballast whenever a lampend is out of a socket. Crest Factor A function of the ballast, it is the ratio of the peak current value divided by the RMS current value. May be voltage or current crest factor. Usually high current crest factors result in reduced performance and ballast life. Efficiency As a measure of the ability to produce light, it is lumens per watt (LPW). True efficiency as a measure of its power pass-through would be the power delivered to the load divided by the total input power. Electrode (Cathode) Metal filaments that emit electrons in a fluorescent lamp. Negatively charged free electrons emitted by one electrode are attracted to the positive electrode (anode), creating an electric current and arc between electrodes. Electromagnetic Ballast A ballast that operates principally through the use of current carrying copper or aluminum coils assembled on a magnetic steel core, instead of electronic components, to operate lamps. HO (High Output) A family of rapid start lamps and ballasts which run at 800mA nominal current. HPF (High Power Factor) Power factors that are greater than 90% and have been corrected above 90%. Indoor A usage or application classification of ballasts by UL. An indoor ballast is only acceptable for use indoors, and will start lamps down to 50ºF (60ºF for energy saving lamps). Instant Start Method of starting lamps by applying an initial high voltage to break down the arc tube and initiate the flow of current. During the starting the cathode should establish the hot spot in 15 to 30 milliseconds. Usually identified by the single pin base. No preheating of the filament is required. Also a line of ballasts and lamps that utilize instant start usually T12 at 425mA, but also T8 and T6 at 300mA, 2’-8’ with single pin bases. Life The rated life of a ballast is defined as the time to failure for the 50th percentile (the time for half of a large population of ballasts to fail). Some ballasts will fail before the rated life and some will continue to operate beyond the rated life. Standard electromagnetic ballasts have a life of approximately 40,000 to 60,000 hours. Life of a ballast is inversely related to the operating temperature. For each 10ºC change in case temperature causes a 2 times change in life.

Typically an uncorrected power factor is 40-60%. Parallel Circuit A type of circuit in which the electrical path splits to permit the current flow in both paths simultaneously. This operates each lamp independently, allowing one lamp to operate if the other one fails. Potting Compound The solid material that fills the inside of the ballast, usually a mixture of asphalt and silica used to dampen sound and dissipate heat. Power Factor A measure of how efficiently the ballast utilizes the input amps to generate the power delivered to the lamps, ie. the relationship between AC source voltage and current. A high power factor (HPF) ballast uses less amps than a normal power factor (NPF) ballast for the same load. Technically, the power factor is the ratio of the real power to the apparent power. Real power is in watts, as measured with a wattmeter. Apparent power is input volts times input amps, measured with voltmeters and ammeters. It is expressed as a percent or a number from 0 to1. Power factor is a concern because using a NPF ballast in place of a HPF ballast may overload some circuits. Also, some power companies charge a penalty for users with normal power factor. Preheat Start A circuit where the lamp electrodes are heated by a switch, glow bottle starter, or electronic circuit prior to operating the lamp. When the filaments have heated up, the starter opens and the ballast then provides a suitable voltage to light the lamp and limits the current flow to the proper value. Several seconds are required to complete the starting operation. Preheat lamps must use preheat ballasts. Rapid Start A circuit where the electrode heating voltage and the starting voltage are applied to the lamp simultaneously through small, low-voltage filament windings. The open circuit voltage of the ballast is adequate to start the lamp only after the filaments have heated to emission temperature, and the lamps light when the electrodes have reached the proper temperature. The electrode heat remains on all the time the lamps are burning (continuous cathode heat). Also a family of lamps and ballasts that utilize continuous electrode heat. The family may contain the F40 line, which runs at 430mA, the HO line, which runs at 800mA, and the PG/VHO/SHO line, which runs at 1500mA. RJ (Rear Junction box) A configuration with crew studs mounted on the base plate or bottom of the ballast. The screws are 3/8" long with a #8-32 thread size. They are mounted on a 2" center. The studs are usually used to mount the ballast directly onto a junction box plate. Because metal can ballasts are usually larger than the junction box plate, the studs are used to mount the ballast directly to the junction box plate. Side Exit A configuration with leads exiting either one or both sides of the ballast. Side exit ballasts are usually preferred for use in wall sconces and surface mount fixtures. Slimline A family of ballasts and lamps that use the instant start circuitry. The lamps have single pin bases and is most often T12, T8, and T6. Starter May be a fluorescent or HID starter. A fluorescent starter is used to heat the lamp electrodes prior to starting. The metal of a fixture is a starting aid when grounded properly. T12 lamps with 40W or less must be mounted within 1/2" of a grounded metal surface. T8 lamps must be mounted within 5/8" of a grounded metal surface. All other lamps must be mounted within 1" of a grounded metal surface. T6, T8, T10, T12 The designation used to describe different fluorescent lamps by their outside diameter. This alphanumeric portion of the designation refers to the lamp’s diameter in 1/8" increments. (T12 = 12 x 1/8" = 1 1/2") Temperature Rise A means of measuring the operating temperatures in a ballast, usually specifying a temperature rise above a given ambient temperature. Another method of specifying temperature is absolute, used when a certain maximum temperature, irrespective of ambient should not be exceeded. THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) The combined effect of harmonic distortion on the AC waveform produced by a ballast or other device. Expressed as a percentage. Excessive levels of THD can create large currents on the neutral line of a four-wire Wye threephase system. Thermal Protector A device inside of the ballast, which senses the temperature and will disconnect the input power whenever the limit is exceeded. This usually consists of a bimetal switch. This protection guards against excessive temperatures, which may be caused by abnormal voltage. Thermal protection may be of two varieties, automatic resetting or nonresetting (like a fuse). When a nonresetting protector operates, the ballast may be permanently inoperable, and must be replaced. If the thermal protector meets certain UL specifications, the ballast can be classified as "Class P". Trigger Start A variation of the preheat start circuit, the ballast operates preheat lamps in a rapid start manner by suppling continuous voltage to the electrodes to heat them to the proper temperature. Upon starting, the electrode voltage is reduced about one half to reduce the losses. UL (Underwriters Laboratories Inc) Laboratory that sets safety standards for building materials, electrical appliances and other products.

Metal case ballasts are generally larger than plastic case ballasts and use a potting compound to dissipate heat and sound. These ballasts are grounded once they are mounted to the fixture. They meet safety codes, some of which do no allow plastic in open plenum areas.
