The Metal Halide
Innovator
Applying a systems approach to metal halide
development has generated a number of
breakthrough innovations. Venture’s Uni-Form®
pulse start systems begin with our exclusive
tipless formed body arc tube, sculpted to
follow the actual shape of the light-producing
arc producing a nearly perfect thermal
profile. Our patented weldless lamp mount
construction is stronger than standard welds.
Designing high intensity discharge lighting
for use on high frequency electronic ballasts
has opened the door for more efficiency and
more capabilities. Venture has invented most
of the metal halide lamp types used around the
world.

INTRODUCTION INFORMATION
Advancements in Lamp Technology
The Venture Advantage
A major advantage in metal halide lighting was
the introduction of Venture’s revolutionary
Uni-Form pulse start system. This second
generation technology holds the future for
metal halide. Uni-Form systems offer up to
50% more lumens per system watt than do
standard metal halide lamps and ballasts. Its
capabilities continue to improve. Recently,
Venture became the only manufacturer to offer
Uni-Form lamps optimized for horizontal
operation in a compact tubular configuration.
New developments will soon bring better
lumen maintenance and even more wattage
options for specifiers.

Advantage
Metal Halide:
A Light Above The Rest
Specifying Venture® product is easy when there is a
broad range of types and wattages for almost any
application indoor or outdoor. Metal halide lighting can be
used for industrial, commercial, retail and municipal spaces.
• MH vs. Incandescent: MH lamps lasts up to 20 times
longer and have a lower operating cost over life
• MH vs. Mercury Vapor: MH lamps are more energy
efficient. Mercury Vapor lamps produce lower
lumens per watt and with lower CRI than MH
• MH vs. HPS: MH lamps produce better light quality.
HPS lamps deliver a strong yellow light with poor
CRI of only 20 - 25
• MH vs. Fluorescent: The size of a fluorescent lamp
makes it hard to direct light. One 100 watt MH
lamp produces the same total light as three 32
watt T8 fluorescent lamps but can be focused better,
deliverly light where it is needed. MH lamps are not
affected by temperature unlike fluorescent lamps.

Longer Life
Uni-Form® pulse start systems
offer up to 100% longer lamp
life along with improved lumen
maintenance. This directly
benefits end-users by reducing
lifetime operating costs. While
50% of standard metal halide
lamps survive to the end of
their rated life, 70% of
Uni-Form lamps will still be
operating on magnetic ballasts.
On HF electronic ballasts, 80%
of Uni-Form lamps will still be
operating at the end of rated life.

o save energy, a manufacturer of commercial jet airliners was
shutting down alternating rows of high bay lighting at two
Southern California facilities. While this reduced costs, it also
limited visibility for employees in many of the plants’ work areas.
The plants utilized standard 1000 watt metal halide fixtures that were
generating approximately 30 foot-candles of light. The company
researched for a long-term lighting solution that would use less
electricity but not decrease, and perhaps even enhance, lighting levels.
T
Working with several electrical product distributors, two innovative
solutions were considered: T5HO (high output) fluorescent silhouette
lamps with electronic ballasts; and Venture’s 450 watt Uni-Form® lamp
on a state-of-the-art electronic ballast. Eight samples of each
of the proposals were installed and tested in the Long Beach facility.
The Uni-Form lamp was chosen over the T5HO fluorescent.
The T5HO lamps generated 38-40 foot-candles of light and a 50
percent reduction in energy usage. However, Venture’s 450 watt
Uni-Form lamp with the high-frequency electronic ballast resulted in
50 foot-candles and approximately a 60 percent reduction in electricity
usage. Additionally, since fluorescent light fixture optics were not
precise enough for the high-bay application, the light patterns of the
T5HO solution were too wide and did not meet the minimum light
necessary for the facility. The solution utilizing Venture’s product had
optics capable of focusing the light at the workspace, providing more
light where the workers needed it.
Also available, Venture’s e-Lamp™ product which has deep dimming
capabilities, delivering tremendous energy savings. Deep dimming
helps with load shedding during peak demand periods and, thus, can
eliminate paying very high peak demand charges from utilities which
can be many times more than standard electricity charges.
The result of replacing the existing system was an increased light
output of 20 foot candles, allowing the plant to use 20 percent fewer
fixtures to maintain identical light levels. According to the
company, 100 percent of the costs of the new fixtures and lamps
were recouped in less than two years.

W
Venture’s 70, 100 and 150 watt Uni-Form® lamps are used to light the
concourse, plaza, entrances and ticket windows of Miller Park, which
opened for play in 2001. The lighting design was a complicated task
since the park has a retractable roof, thus light levels had to be
sufficient even when the roof was closed.
Cleveland Browns Stadium, which has a seating capacity of 73,200,
has over 600 luminaires, including Venture’s 100, 150, 250 and 350
watt Uni-Form systems for the concourses.
Venture’s MS 1500W/HOR/XP/Sport 60 lamps were used in 115
luminaires on eight poles surrounding Lelacheur Park in Lowell.
With a seating capacity of 5,000, the park underwent a retrofit in
2001 as the park also plays host to the University of Lowell for
spring and fall baseball.
Sports Lighting Benefits/Features

irestone Building Products in Deforest, Wisconsin contacted
M&A Railroad and Electrical Supply about upgrading their
lighting system; review the existing system, determine a
solution that meets the criteria and implement the lighting
scheme.
F
At the Deforest location, M&A found that the facility currently
utilized 1000-watt high pressure sodium (HPS) lamps with CWA
ballasts in 165 basic aluminum fixtures mounted to ceiling
heights ranging from 25 to 30 feet. Relamping the facility with
HPS lamps could provide the required 50 foot-candles, but it
couldn’t offer the quality of light needed for employees to complete their jobs accurately. M&A next investigated T5 and T8
fluorescent systems, as well as metal halide systems to determine the best fit for the Deforest facility. Based on the criteria of
providing energy efficiency, white light and ease of retrofitting the
lamps into the existing fixtures, M&A recommended Uni-Form
875 watt lamps and Opti-Wave® ballasts
In addition, Firestone was able to reduce
energy consumption by 40 percent by adding
dimming controls. The 875 watt systems
maintain a consistent color shift and have a
high lumen output of 100,000 lumens as well
as 20,000+ hours rated life.
Uni-Form® 875W Benefits
• High lumen output: 100,000 lumens!

ower Automotive in Granite City, Illinois, has been an industry
leader in production of upper and lower body structures,
chassis and suspension stampings, assemblies and modules.
T
When considering a retrofit, the company realized that the existing
400 watt high pressure sodium (HPS) systems did not produce the
quality of light it wanted. Staber Dearth, Tower Automotive’s Facilities
Engineer, set out several important criteria: same footcandles and
amount of energy consumed as the HPS system, a light source that
better resembled natural sunlight and a fast restrike time.
The solution is Venture’s Uni-Form® lamps and high performance
ballasts. “Compared to the HPS lighting, the 450 watt Uni-Form lamps
and Opti-Wave® ballasts give us nearly the same light levels, lumens and
power consumption,” Dearth said. The Uni-Form 450 watt coated lamps
gave 100 lumens per watt and 45,000 lumens - nearly the equivalent of
a 400 watt HPS lamp, making a dramatic difference.
“The pulse start metal halide lamps were favored by the plant's
employees because they perceived Venture’s lamps as having much
more light,” said Len Wiggins, a lighting representative from St. Louis,
who was also involved in the project.

Providing good quality light at airports is quite a challenge. Not only
do the interiors of the terminals need to be well lit for ticket agents,
airline personnel and passengers; but the tarmac, parking garages
and other areas of the airport are equally important.
Upon landing, pilots must navigate the runway to steer the aircraft to
the designated gate destination. Dark nights and inclement weather
diminish visibility, making quality light that much more important.
Venture Lighting’s 875 watt Uni-Form® lamps are an ideal choice for
such applications, particularly in high bay and outdoor areas. The
pulse start lamps provide up to 50% more hours of life with high
efficacy (115 LPW) which translates to more light for less energy,
better cold starting and faster restrike times.
The MS 875W/BU/BT37/PS lamp provides an average life of 20,000+
hours and is equally suitable for hangars, runways, indoor and
outdoor buildings and high bay applications.
875 Watt Uni-Form Benefits/Features
• High lumen output: 100,000 lumens!
• 115 Lamp lumens per watt

The Challenge: Safety,
nighttime security and greater
white light output
The Solution: Venture’s
Uni-Form® systems with
Opti-Wave® ballasts
ne Mexico City municipality looked to increase nighttime visibility in hopes to decrease felonies in public spaces. There was
a preponderance of high pressure sodium lamps, with their
distinctive “yellow” glow, reducing overall visibility during the night,
creating public safety and security issues.
O
Studies have shown that metal halide lighting, with visible “white”
light, can have a visibility effectiveness of up to six times that of HPS
when used at night.
In the summer of 2005, this municipality installed Venture’s horizontal
burning Uni-Form lamps in one park. Antonio Gershensen, Public
Lighting Director of Mexico City, noted: “This kind of lamp gives 30%
more light than the old yellow ones. The lamps not only last longer but
also give more brightness and clearness”. Mario Bonilla Ramirez,
Coacalco County Under Director of Public Services also notes that
these lamps have resulted in “a diminishing of 25% in the small
felonies in the streets”.
Uni-Form® Horizontal Pulse Start System
• More light and less energy compared to standard
metal halide systems
• Safer, brighter white light compared to HPS
• Energy savings resulting in large returns
• More effective lumens than HPS - See more at night!

anked among the world’s top airports for overall customer
satisfaction, Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport
continuously makes improvements to provide an enjoyable
experience traveling by air. The latest project involved a comprehensive lighting retrofit of its parking garage, seeking to reduce
energy costs without sacrificing light output.
R
Previously, 175, 250, and 400-watt standard metal halide lamps
were used in the parking garage; but after four years, they
required change-outs. Looking for the best solution, the airport
opted for Venture’s 125 and 200-watt Uni-Form® lamps for the
retrofit.
In addition, Venture’s Opti-Wave® multi-tap ballasts replaced the
previous ballasts, which were no longer compatible. The Venture
metal halide lamps provide an energy savings up to 113 watts
per luminaire, longer life and increased light output. Light levels
were doubled, thus providing clearer images for airport security
cameras as well.
Other benefits realized were large annual energy
savings, reduced maintenance costs and better
color rendering, which aids in improved security,
providing a safe haven for customers in the
parking garage. The substantial energy savings
correlates to an expected payback of just one year.
Uni-Form® 200W Systems Benefits
• 20% more maintained lumens than standard 250 watt
metal halide, 85% more than standard 175 watt metal halide
• Up to 50% longer life than standard 175 or 250 watt
metal halide lamps
• 105 lumens per watt and 15,000 hours of life compared
with standard 250W metal halide with 84 lumens per watt
and 10,000 hours of life
• Better color uniformity

Job: Marlton Crossing,
New Jersey
Before
arlton Crossing, located in Marlton, NJ, a suburb of
Philadelphia, is a 330,000 square foot open air retail
shopping center. Management was concerned that lighting
in their parking lots needed improvements, particularly when they
noted that some competitor lots were lit better. They knew a well-lit
parking lot appears safer then a dimly lit lot, parked cars are easier
to identify and more customer activity is increased.
M
Marlton Crossing utilized Site Photometrics, LLC in Columbia, Md. to
evaluate the existing lighting and to determine what type of
parking lot lighting would be best, deliver the highest lighting levels,
in a cost effective manner.
In October of 2005, Site Photometrics, LLC replaced 68 400W HPS
lamps and ballasts with 68 400W Venture Uni-Form pulse start metal
halide lamps and ballasts in the existing lighting fixtures at Marlton
Crossing. Jerry Morstein, Principal of Site Photometrics, LLC, said
that a contracted independent surveyor literally "...measured light
output from the high pressure sodium lamps as well as the new pulse
start metal halide lamps in a nighttime environment. Nighttime
lighting should be measured in effective, a.k.a. scotopic, lumens to
accommodate the response of the eye in dark conditions. As a
result, the light output was a full 2.5 times greater for the new lamps
than for the previously utilized HPS lamps. A major improvement
was shown both through the naked eye, and as measured by a
Solar Light Meter, reading in scotopic illuminance.
Now a much better lit and safer retail shopping center, Marlton
Crossing achieved their goals through little initial cost, as well as no
increased energy costs. No longer uncomfortable with the poor
lighting provided by HPS lamps, and pleased with the white light,
Marlton’s customers can now park in an extremely well lit and bright
parking lot, and enjoy all the comforts and peace of mind which that
brings to their shopping experience.
Uni-Form® 400 Watt Benefits
• 2.5 times brighter than HPS for the same energy used
• Long life: 20,000+ hours
• High initial lumens: 44,000

efurbishment of street lighting columns in some of London’s
most famous landmarks has included the replacement of
700W mercury vapor lamps with 350W metal halide lamps
from Venture Lighting. The end result is a brighter appearance
with illuminance levels the same as before, while saving 50% on
energy costs.
R
Work on the street lighting in St James, the Mall and Admiralty Arch
was carried out by NLA (Services) Ltd and involved replacement of
control gear and ignitors as well as lamps. “Upgrading to metal
halide provided the client with a much better lighting installation
with minimal capital outlay and significant energy savings,”
remarked NLA’s John Coletrini. “We had always had very good
service from Venture in the past so I recommended them for
this project,” he added.
“One of the challenges we faced was that there was no space for the
ignitors in the luminaires so they had to be housed in the base of the
column some 9 meters away,” Mr Coletrini continued. “Most lamps
require the ignitor to be no more than 1 metre away, but the Venture
lamps are able to accommodate this longer distance,” he added.
In all, around 80
columns have
been upgraded in this way and the work was timed to coincide with
refurbishment of the columns. The work in St James and the Mall
was carried out for the Royal Parks, while Admiralty Arch comes
under the auspices of the Cabinet Office.
Uni-Form® 350W Benefits/Features
• An ideal 400 watt system replacement
• Save up to 75 watts per luminaire with Uni-Form 350W lamps
and Opti-Wave® ballasts versus a standard 400 watt CWA

exico City, with its more than 20 million residents, was in
search of street lighting, which would provide better visibility
at night. In the summer of 2005 the Mexico City municipality
utilized 36,000 of Venture’s 200 watt horizontal burning Uni-Form
lamps for its street lights. About 60% of these lamps were used to
retrofit HPS lamps, while the remaining lamps were for entirely new
installations. “It’s a great investment not only in the city’s beauty
but in its public security. The new lighting technology has
changed the city’s panorama completely”, stated Antonio
Gershensen, Public Lighting Director of Mexico City.
M
Per Jim McPhillips, independent agent for Venture Lighting
International, the success in Mexico City has “resulted in the largest
metal halide project in all of Latin America!” And Reforma, the most
important daily newspaper in Mexico, identified this municipality as
“the best public lighting system in the entire metropolitan area of

In Lighting, A Leader Always Shines Bright
Formed-Body Arc Tube
Weldless Arc Tube Mount
The shape of our formed-body quartz arc tube
follows the actual curve of the arc stream.
Improved thermal profile generates more light.
Venture’s nearly unbreakable patented
weldless construction is stronger than
standard welded mounts.
Reduced Pinch Fins
Opti-Wave® Ballasts
By reducing the large pinch fins on the
standard metal halide arc tube, the quartz
mass is lessened, which results in a more
uniform thermal profile.
The lower current crest factor in the electrical
output of our ballasts is optimized for pulse
start lamps. It reduces ballast energy losses
more than 50%, resulting in cooler operation,
and improves lamp lumen maintenance.
Our exclusive tipless design ensures a
totally uniform surface to the arc tube shape,
improved efficacy and color uniformity.
• More Light For Less Energy
• Superior Lumen Maintenance
• Longer Life
• Better Color Uniformity
• Better Cold Starting
• Faster Warm-Up/Restrike
• Improved Lamp Power Control
• Quieter Operation
• Unity Ballast Factor
• Rated for Open Luminaires
• Features UV Shield® Protection

Venture’s open fixture rated MPI lamps
contain quartz shrouds, which help contain
hot particles in the lamp in the event of an
arc tube rupture. Open fixture rated metal
halide lamps offer significant advantages for
end-users, including:
• No need for luminaire lens, where dust and
dirt can accumulate and reduce light output
• Lower luminaire costs
• Easier lamp replacement
• Continuous operation - 24/7/365
• Recommended by the insurance industry
Additionally, Venture’s MPI lamps are
designed to work in special open fixture
sockets which prevent installing or
relamping with the wrong lamp type.
Venture’s design specifications include a
base with an extended center contact (EX39)
for mogul based lamps
These requirements allow for an exclusive
fit by MPI lamps into open rated sockets
To realize these benefits, specify Venture
MPI lamps for your installation. Venture
carries a complete line of open rated lamps,
the most options available in the industry.

The extended center

A Simple Lamp Change Does It!
Save Up to 40 Watts per Fixture! Venture Lighting‘s
Energy Master® line of retrofit products saves
energy by operating at lower wattages.
See an immediate reduction in energy costs of up
to 40 watts per fixture or a full 10% with virtually
the same light output. At a cost of $0.12/KWH,
the energy savings over the rated life of the 360
watt Energy Master lamp (20,000 hours) is
$96 per fixture.
Calculation:
.040 KW/hr x $.12 x 20,000 hrs =$96.00
It’s Easy!
Just replace your lamp. That’s it!
Retrofit for Safety
For applications where safety is an issue, Venture
Lighting offers open-rated Energy Master MPI
lamps, which meet 2005 NEC® requirements.
The arc tube is enclosed in a quartz shroud to
prevent the outer glass jacket from breaking in
the event of an arc tube rupture. Passing ANSI
containment tests, these lamps operate on
standard ballasts and are intended primarily
for open-rated fixtures and provide an added
measure of safety in enclosed fixtures.
Retrofit Benefits:
• No need to change luminaires or ballasts
• Full range of shrouded lamps available for use
in open luminaires
• Save on energy consumption
Considering an update of your lighting system?
Explore the advantages of the Energy Master line.
Available in 150 and 360 watt designs to replace
175 and 400 watt standard lamps.

Introduction
Venture Lighting makes both lamps and ballasts.
The company supports industry standards;
however, Venture understands their limitations.
Venture optimizes its lamps and ballasts for
peak system performance that goes beyond the
standards. This is reflected in Venture’s warranty
policy when Venture lamps and ballasts are
used together. This technical reference provides
information on Venture Lighting’s lamps and
ballasts.
Consensus standards among lamp and ballast
manufacturers assure compatibility of various
lighting components. In North America, ANSI
codes are used. IEC codes are codes used
internationally. These codes assure that lamps
and components from different manufacturers
work together. They describe lamp dimensions
as well as thermal and electrical requirements.
These are the recognized certification marks for the

Introduction
The Metal Halide Advantage
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Characteristics
Applications
The unique characteristics of metal halide lighting
provide high performance such as:
Better Light Quality
The output of metal halide lamps is closer to
natural sunlight than most other light sources.
People prefer white light because of better visual
acuity, even at lower light levels.
Product
Index
MH vs. Incandescent
A 100 watt metal halide lamp provides five times
the lumen output of a 100 watt incandescent
lamp, and will last 20 times longer. Although
incandescent has a low initial lamp cost, metal
halide has a lower total operating cost over life.
Compact Size
Metal halide lamps generate high light levels from
a compact light source. This allows for smaller,
more controllable luminaires.
Versatility
Metal halide lamps are relatively unaffected by
ambient temperature and are equally suited for
indoor or outdoor use. Extensive style and wattage
options allow for many applications.
High Efficiency
Metal halide lamps generate 65-115 lumens per
watt, more than incandescent, fluorescent or
mercury vapor lamps. (see chart at right)
Five times more efficient
than incandescent
LUMENS PER WATT
WHITE LIGHT SOURCES
MH vs. Mercury Vapor
Mercury vapor lamps have long life, but are not as
energy efficient as metal halide, producing only
35-58 lumens per watt. Their limited blue-green
light spectrum has a lower CRI than metal halide.
Metal Halide 65-115
Fluorescent 30-98
Mercury 35-58
Positive Environmental Impact
Since metal halide lamps deliver light more
efficiently than incandescent, widespread
acceptance of the technology has a positive
effect on air quality and the environmental waste
stream. Lower electrical power generating
requirements means less air pollution. Efficient
long-life systems mean less landfill waste.
White HPS 40-47
Incandescent 15-35
0
Metal halide generates light closer to sunlight
than any other HID light source.
A more efficient light source also
means less waste.
MH vs. Fluorescent
Fluorescent lamps are difficult to direct because of
their larger size. One 100 watt metal halide lamp
produces the same light as three 48” high output
T8 fluorescent lamps. Metal halide lamps also
tolerate a wider operating temperature range.
Fluorescents are often limited to temperaturecontrolled indoor applications: T8 fluorescent
lamps perform optimally at approximately 77°F
(25°C), degrading measurably as temperature
varies. T5 lamps perform similarly, but peak at
95°F (35°C).
Wider Range of Applications
Specifiers can now select from a broad variety
of lamp types and wattages to suit almost any
application. Metal halide lighting is used today
indoors and out, for industrial, commercial, retail
and municipal spaces. Popular for sports
facilities, and site lighting, it is increasingly found
in supermarkets, big box retail, offices and lobbies.
Excellent Color Rendering
Metal halide lamps offer excellent color rendering,
with a 65-90+ CRI (color rendering index).

Long Life
Metal halide lamps have an average life of
15,000-20,000++ hours, more than ten times that
of incandescent lamps.
Technology
Goes Head-toHead
MH vs. HPS
While HPS lamps offer long life, they do not deliver
the same light quality as metal halide. Because of
their dominant sodium content, HPS lamps yield
strong yellow light (2200K) and have a very poor
CRI of 20-25. The full spectrum light of metal
halide lamps has a much higher CRI.

The Most Advanced Technology
A major advancement in metal halide lighting was
the introduction of Venture’s revolutionary
Uni-Form® pulse start system. This second generation
technology holds the future for metal halide.
Uni-Form systems offer up to 50% more lumens
per system watt than do standard metal halide
lamps and ballasts. Its capabilities continue to
improve. Recently, Venture became the only
manufacturer to offer Uni-Form lamps optimized
for horizontal-only operation. Venture’s high
wattage e-Lamp™ product, designed for operation
on high frequency electronic ballasts with built-in
dimming down to 50% power, is another unique
new high performance product. Future
developments will soon bring better lumen
maintenance and even more wattage options
for specifiers.

Uni-Form Pulse Start Technical Information
Introduction
®
UNI-FORM® PULSE START
LAMP TECHNOLOGY
HIGH PERFORMANCE
DESIGN
HIGH PERFORMANCE
RESULTS
Uni-Form lamps provide superior performance
compared to standard metal halide lamps. The
specific benefits are higher efficacy, better color
uniformity, faster warm-up, improved lumen
maintenance and longer life. It all takes place
in Venture’s revolutionary formed-body arc tube.
Formed-Body Arc Tube
The shape of Venture’s formed-body quartz arc
tube follows the actual curve of the arc stream,
preventing uneven temperatures in the arc tube
surface. This significantly
improved thermal
performance allows more
halides to be pulled into
the arc and more light to
be emitted.
Superior Lumen Maintenance
Uni-Form system lumen output does not decay as
rapidly over life as standard metal halide. Mean
lumens improve dramatically, up to 50% higher,
with lamps operating on Venture’s Opti-Wave low
current crest factor ballasts.

One key to superior lamp performance is heat
management. In standard arc tubes, uneven
heating prevented optimum arc enhancement.
Venture created an exclusive, tipless formed-body
arc tube, sculpted to follow the actual curve of the
arc stream. The shape creates a more uniform
temperature profile. Higher temperatures draw
more halides into the stream, resulting in more
light generated. Venture’s unique sculpting
process also molds each arc tube for improved
color uniformity.
SYSTEM SOLUTIONS
Venture’s pulse start system technology, actualized
in Uni-Form lamps and Opti-Wave® ballasts,
represents advancement as important as the
invention of the metal halide lamp. Every change in
arc tube design, lamp construction and the ballast
enhances overall system performance. This metal
halide focus allows us to offer a vast array of
integrated packages, providing optimum lighting
efficacy and quality for virtually any application.
Tipless Arc Tube
The exhaust tip on standard arc
tubes creates a cold spot which
degrades arc tube performance. The exclusive
tipless design ensures a totally uniform arc tube
shape, improving efficacy and color uniformity.
High Voltage Pulse Ignition
High voltage pulse starting eliminates the starter
electrode, bi-metal switch and resistor of standard
probe start lamps. It also provides quicker
breakdown of gases; so starting (cold and hot)
is faster.

Longer Life
Uni-Form systems offer up to 50% longer lamp life
along with improved lumen maintenance. This
directly benefits end-users by reducing lifetime
operating costs. While 50% of standard metal
halide lamps survive at the end of their rated life,
70% of Uni-Form lamps will still be operating.

Higher Fill Pressure
Venture’s formed-body design and pulse ignition
support a higher fill gas level that helps to reduce
wall blackening caused by tungsten sputtering
from the electrodes during starting.
Weldless Arc Tube Mount
Venture’s nearly unbreakable, patented weldless
construction is stronger than standard welded
mounts.

Color Uniformity
Lamp-to-lamp color variations occur due to arc
tube temperature differences and poor power
regulation. Venture minimizes variation through
consistent thermal characteristics in every arc tube
and better power control from Venture’s ballasts.
THE BOTTOM LINE IS
MORE LIGHT FOR

Improved Lamp Power Control
The well regulated output power of Venture’s
ballasts improves color uniformity and lumen
maintenance.
Uni-Form® pulse start technology
exceeds expectations.
More light for less energy makes Uni-Form the
most logical lighting choice for designers and
corporate energy managers seeking to drastically
cut power bills. Compared to standard metal
halide, Venture’s revolutionary system offers up to
50% improvement in system mean lumens per
watt. In practical applications, the higher efficiency
can translate into a savings of more than 100 watts
per luminaire! And that savings is achieved while
still producing the same, or more, high quality light.

Introduction
Lamp Technical Info
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Many factors affect the performance of metal
halide lamps over time. Most of these factors
(see table) are controllable in the design of the
lighting system. Incorporating as many of the
optimized conditions as possible will deliver the
best performance from any given metal halide
lighting system. More light reducing conditions
present in the design of the lighting system create
a gap between published “optimized” ratings
and actual lighting system performance - the
greater the light reducing conditions, the greater
the gap.

Introduction
Lamp Technical Info
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Color
Applications
The “color” of light sources is derived from a
complicated relationship derived from a number of
different measurements, including correlated color
temperature (CCT), color rendering index (CRI), and
spectral distribution. In general, color is most
accurately described by a combination of CCT
and CRI.
Specialty
Lamps
Uni-Form®
Systems
Selection
Guide
Correlated Color Temperature
(CCT)
The first factor in choosing a lamp color is the
correlated color temperature. For example, if
a retailer wants lighting to blend in with warm
halogen accent lamps, the retailer may choose a
Venture® MP 100W/C/U/3K, which has a correlated
color temperature of 3200K. CCT is defined as
the absolute temperature (expressed in degrees
Kelvin) of a theoretical black body whose
chromaticity most nearly resembles that of the
light source. The CCT rating is an indication of
how “warm” or “cool” the light source appears.
The higher the number, the cooler the lamp color
will appear. The lower the number, the warmer the
lamp color will appear.
Standard
Metal Halide
Spectral Energy Distribution
When we look at a light source, the eye
“perceives” a single color. In reality, we are seeing
literally thousands of colors and hues made up of
a combination of different wavelengths of light.
These different combinations and the relative
intensity of various wavelengths of light are used
to determine the CCT and CRI of a light source.
Color Rendering Index (CRI or Ra)
In general, CRI is a numeric indication of a lamp’s
ability to render individual colors accurately
relative to a standard. The CRI value is derived
from a comparison of the lamp’s spectral
distribution to the standard (e.g. a black body or
the daytime sky) at the same color temperature.
Different Colors
Venture Lighting offers lamps in many colors to
suit virtually any lighting application. Outlined
below are the various color temperatures (CCT)
currently available:
27K 2700K - Used as a replacement for very
warm incandescent lamps (coated only)
3K 3000K-3200K - Used as a general warm,
white light source, available in clear or
coated finish for retail or interior applications;
blends with halogen lamps
4K
3700K-4000K - Used as a neutral white light
source, available in clear or coated finish
for general lighting, factories, parking lots,
warehouses
5K
5000K - A moderately high CCT
daylight source used in general and retail
lighting applications
6K
6500K - A high CCT daylight source used to
simulate average outdoor light conditions
10K 10,000K - A very high CCT, daylight light
source, used in horticulture and aquarium
applications
High CRI vs. High CCT
High CRI does not necessarily equal high CCT,
and should not be the only deciding factor in light
source selection since light sources with high CRI
do not always render colors satisfactorily. For
example, when comparing a light source with low
CRI at a high illuminance level with another light
source that has high CRI but at a low illuminance
level, the respective value of CRI means very little
in terms of accurately identifying colors. In many
instances, the personal preference of the
consumer is even more important than the
specific CRI level.
By definition, a standard 2700K incandescent bulb
has a CRI of 100 even though its light output
is predominantly yellow. This is because the
incandescent lamp is utilized as the reference
standard for determining the CRI of most light
sources. However, for lamps with color
temperatures of at least 5000K, the reference
standard is daylight. For example Venture’s
Natural White™ metal halide lamp at 5000K has
a CRI of 91-92. even though it looks much whiter
than the incandescent lamp.

Introduction
Lamp Technical Info
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
As metal halide lamps age, chemical changes
occur causing shifts in color. Generally, standard
probe start lamps shift approximately twice as
much in CCT over life as do Uni-Form®
pulse start lamps.
Why Color Uniformity:
• Create a better atmosphere for customers
and employees! - Whiter, brighter light makes
people feel safer, more relaxed and more
productive
• See colors better! - Consistent color helps
improve color rendering
• Lighting all the same color appears
better maintained
Lighting Design for
Low Light Levels
Studies on nighttime visibility demonstrate
experimentally that the sensitivity of the human
eye to different colors of light at various light levels
determines the true, or effective, lumen output of a
lamp. Recent research shows that the color output
of the light source has a significant effect on
nighttime visibility, which is important because
road accidents occur mostly at night. Also, it is
well known that the eye responds to color
depending upon the amount of light available.
Photopic, Scotopic And Mesopic
Conditions
Lumens are the standard measure of light output,
but light is actually defined as energy evaluated by
the eye. Standard lumen measurements define the
light output response of a person only during
high light levels (called photopic light), typical of
daylight and interior lighting. The light meter
measures photopic light as seen by the central
region of the eye.
When light levels are very low, like starlight, the
viewing conditions are referred to as “scotopic.”
Under these conditions, the eye’s visual response
changes dramatically. Sensitivity to yellow and red
light is greatly reduced, while response to blue
light is vastly increased. If lamp lumens under
scotopic viewing conditions have been determined
using photopic measuring devices, the lumen
value does not accurately measure the true
amount of light production as perceived by the
human eye.
The eye response does not shift suddenly from
high light levels to low light levels. A gradual
change occurs as light levels are reduced in
twilight and typical street lighting conditions.
This is the “mesopic” condition in which the eye’s
response lies somewhere between photopic
and scotopic.

Color Shift and Variation
Different colors are produced in metal halide
lamps by using various arc tube shapes and
metal halide salts. In new lamps these halides
need to “burn-in” for approximately 100 hours
before they reach their optimum color. This is
why new lamps can sometimes be unstable or
vary in color.

What Are Scotopic Lumens?
NIGHTTIME OBSERVATIONS
Published lumen ratings are based on the
“photopic” lumen (“P”), or light measurement
based on daytime observations. Lumen
measurements, corrected for nighttime vision,
are known as “scotopic” lumens (“S”). The ratio of
light measured by the 2 methods is called the “S/P
ratio”. The S/P ratio for white-blue (5000K daylight)
light sources is 2.1. At 4000K the ratio is 1.65, and
for HPS lamps the ratio is 0.64. As a result, 4000K
light sources are at least twice as effective for
viewing at night compared to HPS sources at the
same photopic illuminance. 5000K light sources
are at least three times as effective.
DAYTIME OBSERVATIONS
Lamps with high scotopic-content and high S/P
ratios, such as Venture’s Natural White™ lamps,
also improve the ability to see indoors. Human
studies have shown that the S/P values, though
previously applicable to only nighttime conditions,
can be used to describe the “effective lumens” of
indoor lighting as well. For example, if two rooms
are lighted separately with 4000K and 5000K
lamps to equal photopic luminance, the 5000K
room will appear 13% brighter (2.1/1.65)0.5.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Rods And Cones
The change in the eye’s spectral response is due
to the presence of two types of light receivers in
the retina, called rods and cones. Rods are
responsible for human vision at low light levels
and are located in the peripheral field of view.
Conversely, only objects viewed directly by the
eye are seen by the cones. Rods are sensitive to
scotopic light (nighttime); cones react to photopic
light (daylight). Therefore, as the light level is
reduced, cones become less active and rods
become more active.
Eye Color Sensitivity And Lumens
The value of a lamp’s lumen output is different
when considering the shifting color sensitivity of
the eye at low light levels. The effective lumens
will be different from the measured photopic
lumens. As light diminishes from photopic to
scotopic conditions, the effective lumens of yellow
HPS light sources are reduced and the effective
lumens of white light with blue/green content
increases.
This effect is dramatic for low pressure sodium
(LPS) lamps. Almost all energy output from this
lighting system is yellow, resulting in high photopic
lumen output. At low light levels, the effectiveness
of LPS lamps is drastically reduced.

Metal Halide Lamps For Low
Light Levels
A typical metal halide lamp has strong light output
in the blue, green and yellow areas, resulting in
high lumen output at all light levels. The blue light
output of metal halide is in the high sensitivity
region of the eye for low light levels. This means
that the effective lumens actually increase for a
metal halide lamp as the light level reduces and
the eye shifts to a blue/green peak sensitivity.
The ability to detect fine contrast is also significantly
better under metal halide sources than sodium. In
street lighting, driver reaction time under LPS and
HPS lighting is roughly 50% longer than for metal
halide. Therefore, the color output of a light source
has an important influence on safety. Studies have
shown that metal halide lighting, in some
circumstances, can be up to six times as effective
as HPS. This can make a difference in peripheral
viewing and in dark areas where hidden hazards
may be present.

Introduction
Lamp Technical Info
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Correct Operation and Warnings For
High Intensity Discharge Lamps:
High intensity discharge (HID) lamps require
auxiliary equipment (ballasts, capacitors, ignitors
or power supplies) to provide the correct electrical
values for starting and operating. This auxiliary
equipment must meet all electrical specifications
outlined by the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI). Venture Lighting International will
not be responsible for poor performance, personal
injury, property damage, burns or fire from lamps
operating on unapproved auxiliary equipment
or from lamps being operated in a manner
inconsistent with their design.
Power should always be turned off and preferably
locked out in accordance with OSHA guidelines
whenever installation, removal or maintenance is
performed on lighting systems. Safety glasses
and gloves should be used when installing or
removing HID lamps. Lamps should be installed
firmly into appropriate lamp sockets, without over
tightening, to avoid loosening from vibration.
HID lamps and arc tubes operate at extremely
high temperatures and may shatter as a result of
misapplication, system failure or other factors.
Scratches on the outer bulb, direct contact with
water or excessive installation pressure can also
cause the lamps to break. Breakage may release
extremely hot glass and lamp parts into the surrounding environment and raise the risk of fire,
personal injury or property damage. Injury may
also be caused by ultraviolet energy from an
unjacketed HID lamp. If the outer jacket should
break, immediately turn the power off. Do not
remove a lamp until it has completely cooled;
then replace it with a new Venture® lamp. In
areas susceptible to contamination by flying glass,
where flammable materials are present or where
there is a possibility of personal injury, users
should seek additional protective measures by
using open fixture (Type-O) lamps and
enclosed luminaires.

Luminaire Requirements and
Operating Positions
It is imperative that users adhere to specified
luminaire and lamp operating positions and
requirements. The operation of lamps in positions
other than those specified can result in severe
reductions in lamp performance, including lamp
life, light output and color. Incorrect operating
positions can also create the possibility of an
early failure.
Refer to each lamp’s technical data specification
sheet to determine correct operating position and
luminaire requirements. Also, refer to the diagrams
in this section to determine allowable
operating positions.
Federal Compliance - Metal Halide
Venture® lamps comply with USA Federal Standard
21 CFR 1040.30 and Canada Standard
SOR/80-381.
“WARNING: This lamp can cause serious skin
burn and eye inflammation from shortwave
ultraviolet radiation if outer envelope of the lamp
is broken or punctured and the arc tube continues
to operate. Do not use where people will remain
for more than a few minutes unless adequate
shielding or other safety precautions are used.
Lamps that will automatically extinguish when
the outer envelope is broken or punctured are
commercially available.”
Careful adherence to the previous mentioned precautions may not eliminate all possible risks
associated with the use of metal halide lamps,
but it will reduce the likelihood of personal injury
or property damage.
End-of-Life and Reduction of Risk
At end-of-life, the vast majority of metal halide
lamps will simply fail by not reigniting. On rare
occasions, metal halide lamps may fail in a
violent manner. The possibility of this failure is
significantly reduced by group relamping at or
before the rated end of life, (see Group Relamping).
In any application where enclosed rated (Type-E)
lamps are operated continuously (24 hrs/day,
seven days/week), the lamps should always be
turned off for a period of at least 15 minutes once
a week, a precaution that can reduce the
possibility of violent failures. This procedure is not
required when Venture’s open rated (ANSI Type-O),
shrouded lamps are used. These lamps are easily
identified by the prefix “MP” or “MPI” in the lamp

Characteristics
Probe start metal halide lamps will start at an
ambient temperature of -30°C (-22°F) or higher.
Full light output does not occur immediately when
power is applied to any metal halide lamp; there
is a time delay of at least three to six minutes after
starting before lamps reach full light output.
After lamps have started, a power interruption
of 1/4 cycle (1/240th of a second) or more may
cause the lamps to extinguish. Several minutes
are required before an arc can be re-established
by the ballast and full light output achieved.
The exact time is dependent on a number of
factors including lamp wattage, ballast and ignitor
characteristics, ambient temperature, fixture
dimensions and supply voltage. The time needed
to establish full light output can be as short as 3
minutes and as long as 15 to 20 minutes. In
general, pulse start technology dramatically
decreases the time for hot restart. Venture’s
exclusive Uni-Form formed body arc tube provides
warm-up and hot restrike in up to 60% less time
than probe start lamps (standard metal halide) and
allows for better starting, even in temperatures
down to -40°C (-40°F).

Introduction
Lamp Technical Info
Lamp life is an important consideration when
purchasing a new, retrofit or replacement lamp.
Two very different and distinct terms describe life:
“rated life” and “economic life.”
Effective Lighting Management
Group relamping offers significant savings in time
and labor costs over spot replacing failed lamps.
Regularly scheduled maintenance based on
projected lamp life and lumen depreciation keeps
a lighting system functioning at its maximum by
replacing all lamps at their economic life.
This provides:
• Optimum light output
• Superior aesthetic quality
• Optimum energy efficiency
• Lower labor costs
Various operating conditions affect lamp life. One
key factor is operating position. Position-oriented
lamps (designed to operate in one specific position)
are tested and rated based on that designated
position. Operating these lamps in any other
positions can dramatically shorten life, reduce lumen
output and cause color shift. Lamps designated
universal can be operated in any position; however,
life expectancy and lumen output are sacrificed in
certain positions. Published “rated life” for universal
lamps is based on operation in the vertical position.
“Rated life” for universal lamps operated horizontally
is 75% of the published rating.
Shorter operating cycles reduce life. At operating
cycles shorter than 10 hours per start, life will
shorten as follows:
5 hrs/start: Life is 75% of rating
2.5 hrs/start: Life is 55% of rating
1.25 hrs/start: Life is 40% of rating
Other factors, alone or in combination, that can
also reduce lamp life include:
• High or low line voltages
• Marginally-operating control devices (ballasts,
capacitors, ignitors, dimming systems, etc.)
Economic Life
Economic life refers to the hours of operation during
which a lamp is designed to provide optimum
light output and color quality as well as lowest
replacement cost. Economic life describes actual
lamp life better than rated life because rated life
does not account for the lumen depreciation and
color shift that occur as lamps age. The economic
life of lamps is generally 60% to 75% of the lamp
rated life. Though economic life is important when
considering a lighting system, lamp data tables
show rated life because they provide a comparison
with other lamp manufacturers’ ratings.
1) Optimum Light Output:
Light levels are at their peak when a lighting
installation is new. Most standard metal halide
lamps decrease in light output to 40% of initial
light output by the end of rated life. A number of
factors may accelerate this reduction in efficacy
(lumens per watt). Group relamping at economic
life keeps the light levels from dropping significantly.
It also provides an opportunity to remove dirt
accumulation in the luminaires. Cleaning during
group relamping saves time and helps maintain
optimum light levels. A cleaner, well-lit environment
increases safety and security, can contribute
to higher worker productivity and creates
a better impression for visitors.
2) Aesthetic Quality:
The quality of light changes over economic life,
shifting 200K to 350K in color. Most of this shift
occurs in the last 25% of rated life. This causes
old lamps to appear blue or pink, especially when
compared to new lamps. All the lamps in an area
will generally change color together; so the color
shift of the lamps will be most noticeable during
spot relamping.
Group relamping at economic life is a practical
way to reduce energy and maintenance costs,
as well as sustain workers’ visual acuity with a
bright workplace environment. It also offers the
opportunity to replace older lighting with Venture’s
energy saving Energy Master® retrofit products or
more efficient Uni-Form systems.

Rated Life
Rated, or average (median), life for metal halide
lamps is a value of lamp life expectancy based on
laboratory and field tests of representative lamps,
operating on approved ballasts, with a burn cycle
of at least 10 hours per start. The average life is
determined when 50% of standard metal halide
lamps initially installed are still operating. For
350-875 watt Uni-Form lamps, life is determined
when 70% of the lamps initially installed are still
operating.
4) Cost Effective Replacement:
Group relamping, as a planned maintenance
program, reduces downtime and labor costs.
Spot relamping often takes an employee away
from regular duties just to replace a burned out
lamp. This inconvenience grows as lamp failures
increase towards the end of rated life. Group
relamping not only eliminates wasted labor and
workday disruptions, it allows for scheduling
during normal shutdown periods.

3. Making lamp replacement easier
There are now two types of lamps for use in open
luminaires. One type is designated with the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) “S”
rating; the other is given an “O” rating. There are
significant differences between these two ratings.
To reduce the risk of liability, lighting specifiers
need to be aware of what the criteria are for a true
open rating and what the Type-S or Type-O
designations indicate about lamp construction.
The Open Fixture Rating
The best-selling 400 and 1000 watt universal metal
halide (probe start) lamps, produced to the ANSI
M59 and M47 lamp
standards, are rated
by most major lamp
manufacturers for
operation in open
luminaires. These
lamps have been
assigned the ANSI
letter/designation “S,”
indicating “suitable”
for use in open
luminaires, if
positioned within ±15°
of vertical. With a
continuous operating
cycle, “S” rated lamps must be shut down at least
once a week for a minimum of 15 minutes and
relamped at or before reaching rated lamp life.
However, it has not been proven that these
restrictions eliminate violent end-of-life failures.
In fact, an insurance industry report published
in March 1998, warned against the use of
lamps with an “S” designation because they
pose a risk of fire and injury1. Lamps with
the “S” designation do not have
containment shrouds.
Type-O lamps, on the other hand, have been
designed with a quartz shroud around the arc
tube to help with containment and only receive
the “O” rating if they pass a rigorous ANSI test.
The insurance industry now recommends that
all metal halide lamps manufactured for open
luminaires incorporate shrouded arc tubes to
contain shattered particles. One major insurer also
recommends using Type-O lamps in enclosed
luminaires with plastic lenses 2. The industry urges
metal halide lighting manufacturers to adopt
Type-O lamps and abandon the use of the Type-S
lamps. With the growing use of metal halide
lighting spurred by the advances of pulse start
technology, proper selection of Type-O lamps for
open luminaires becomes even more important.
UV Shield lamps can also
with UV Shield®
be used in enclosed
luminaires. This reduces
“yellowing” of polycarbonate
lenses, ensuring maximum white
light output. Laboratory tests
demonstrate that UV Shield extends polycarbonate
lens life by a factor of six to ten times.
ANSI Lamp Designations
• Type-E lamps must be used in enclosed
luminaires which meet the requirements of
UL1598.
• Type-S lamps are considered “suitable” for open
luminaire operation only if operated in the
vertical ±15° position. Lamps do not meet ANSI
criteria for containment and must be turned off
at least once per week for a minimum of 15
minutes if operated continuously. In addition
these lamps must be replaced at or before
reaching rated lamp life.

Introduction
Ballast Technical Info
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Introduction
Applications
While Venture Lighting focuses on metal halide
systems, there are practical uses for other HID
technologies. We apply the same level of passion
for quality and performance to these ballasts as we
do to Venture’s metal halide offerings. To assure
compatibility, refer to our specification sheets to
determine which ballast works with each lamp type.
Why are ballasts
needed?
For many users, ballasts are a mystery. Electrical
distribution systems deliver fixed AC voltage (50
or 60 Hz). Users expect connected electrical loads
to limit the current drawn from the source. Low
pressure and high pressure arc discharge lamps
exhibit “negative impedance.” Without a ballast,
the arc will extinguish or draw increasing current
until some circuit element burns up. Ballasts
provide system stability by limiting the current
that can be drawn. Magnetic ballasts use inductive
and capacitive components because they impede
alternating current with little power consumption.
Resistive components generate high losses and
are usually avoided. This is true of conventional
electromagnetic ballasts as well as electronic
ballasts.
HID ballasts perform the following
functions:
• Provide voltage to breakdown the gas between
the electrodes of arc lamps and initiate starting.
• Provide voltage and current to heat the
electrodes to allow a low voltage, high current
arc mode to develop (referred to as glow-to-arc
transition, GAT).
• Provide enough current to heat and evaporate
the light emitting components after an arc has
been established. Provide enough sustaining
voltage (see Vss) to maintain the arc during
warm-up and operation.
• Set lamp current once all the evaporable
materials have reached thermal equilibrium.
Breakdown vs. Glow-to-Arc
Transition (GAT)
Standard metal halide lamps (also called “probe
start”), and high-pressure mercury vapor (HPMV)
lamps utilize an auxiliary electrode to facilitate
starting. These lamps are filled with a relatively low
pressure of argon gas. Breakdown occurs when
several hundreds of volts are applied. The lower
the fill pressure, the lower the breakdown voltage
and less electrode heating occurs in the
subsequent glow mode. Without enough electrode
heat the arc mode will not develop. There is a
Uni-Form® pulse start metal halide and high
pressure sodium (HPS) lamps dispense with the
auxiliary electrode, but have breakdown voltage
requirements in the range of several thousand
volts. An “ignitor” is added, which provides a
narrow (µsec wide) pulse near the peak of the
output voltage waveform. Some lamps require
more than one pulse per half cycle. The minimum
output voltage requirement (min. OCV) assures
that a GAT will occur. At room temperature,
mercury interacts with argon to reduce breakdown
voltage. In cold weather or refrigerated spaces, the
breakdown voltage requirement goes up. Standard
metal halide and mercury vapor ballasts have to
supply a fairly high output voltage for low
temperature starting. Pulse start metal halide and
HPS ignitors are sufficient to start lamps down
to -40°C (-40°F).
Warm-up
Unlike low pressure lamps, HID lamps have a low
initial arc voltage following GAT and warm up over
several minutes to final operating voltage. In
HPMV lamps this involves the evaporation of a
fixed amount of mercury. In standard metal halide
and Uni-Form lamps, a fixed amount of mercury
and some of the metal halide salts evaporate.
For most HPS lamps, this involves the partial
evaporation of mercury and sodium as the lamp
reaches thermal equilibrium. Standard and pulse
start metal halide lamps have sustaining voltage
requirements after GAT to assure the lamp will
continue to operate. HPS lamps have a lamp
power vs. lamp voltage space (see graph under
‘High pressure sodium lamp “trapezoids”’) that
has been defined to assure stable warm-up and
operation.
Operation
The ballast determines the lamp current in normal
operation by providing the impedance. The
combination of lamp current and voltage
determines the power consumed by the lamp. The
lamp power, in turn, determines light output and
color. For example, if a 320 watt lamp is accidentally operated on a 350 watt
ballast, the lamp will run over wattage at
350 watts because the nominal lamp
voltage is the same for both lamps and
the ballast delivers the higher current
required for a 350 watt lamp. Color will
be warmer, light output will be higher
and lamp life will be shorter.
In stable operation, lamp power varies with supply
voltage and lamp voltage. Electronic ballasts can
be designed to minimize both sources of power
variation. On reactor and HX ballasts, lamp power
varies about 2% for each 1% of line variation. On
CWA and CWI ballasts, lamp power varies about
1% for 1% of line variation. These CW-type ballasts
amplify lamp voltage variations into power variations
while reactor and HX ballasts minimize the same.
Ballast history
Most of the world uses “lag” type ballasts for the
operation of high intensity discharge (HID) lamps.
Another common name for the simplest type of lag
ballast is “reactor”. These ballasts are constructed
from steel laminations and wire coils. The term
“lag” derives from the inductive nature of the
ballast; the input current lags the input voltage by
up to 90 electrical degrees. Several input taps may
be provided to accommodate small local variations
in nominal voltage. Reactor ballasts provide
outstanding lamp performance, with excellent
efficiency, at the lowest possible cost, but only
operate at a single input voltage.
Lag ballasts that can accommodate a wide
range of input voltages are made using an
autotransformer stage in front of an inductive
element. These use two coils and are referred to
as HX or high leakage reactance autotransformers.
The losses and material content are higher
resulting in higher operating and initial costs
compared to single voltage reactor ballasts. The
lamp performance benefits are retained.
The CWA, or constant wattage autotransformer
ballast, became popular in North America for
mercury vapor lamps after World War II. The primary
application was roadway lighting. The circuit delivers
relatively constant lamp current, which, in turn,
translates to relatively constant lamp power as long
as lamp voltage does not vary during life. This is a
good assumption for mercury vapor lamps. It
allowed utilities to start a roadway circuit with as
much as +13% input voltage at the beginning of a
string of lights and allow for sag to -13% at the end
of the string. The resulting lamp power variation
was an acceptable ±15%. A small “peaking”
capacitor across the lamp terminals
provided enough voltage to start
lamps outdoors with modest OCV. The
strategy had little to do with temporal
variations in line voltage, but rather
addressed the economics of
lighting circuits along long
stretches of road.
When HPS lamps were
introduced, they were

trade off of breakdown voltage and GAT with fill
pressure for these lamps. For most mercury vapor
lamps, sinusoidal output voltages around 220 Vrms
suffice. For most metal halide lamps, highly
peaked (distorted) output voltages around 300
Vrms suffice. Failing to attain a GAT will destroy
lamp electrodes in less than 100 hours.

Venture makes a full line of high performance
ballasts for metal halide and high-pressure sodium
lamps. Venture’s Opti-Wave® family of ballasts is
designed especially for Uni-Form pulse start
metal halide lamps.
Metal halide lamps were introduced in the 1960’s.
They required a higher peak starting voltage than
mercury vapor lamps, but were incompatible with
“peaking capacitors.” The lamps would start and
promptly “drop out.” By adding saturable elements
to the magnetic circuit of the ballast, the OCV
could be “peaked” to start the lamps. Standard
probe start metal halide lamps and “peaked lead”
ballasts launched metal halide lighting in North
America. Internationally, the same lamps operated
on reactor ballasts by adding simple low cost
ignitors. Multiple input voltage taps for CWA
ballasts were readily accommodated. More
CWA ballasts could be operated on a circuit than
reactor or HX ballasts of the same wattage.
However, the current wave shape left little margin
for input voltage fluctuations during starting, had
poor energy efficiency and provided poor
regulation of lamp power with respect to lamp
voltage. Evidence suggests that maintained
lumens of most metal halide lamps operated on
CWA ballasts are worse than those operated
on lag circuits.
Characteristic
These are two coil ballasts, consisting of a primary
winding that provides the voltage transformation
for OCV requirements, coupled with a secondary
coil for limiting current. The ballast uses more

incompatible with CWA ballasts because they
required a high starting voltage. Where the
constant current characteristic led to unstable
operation. Lag and HX ballasts with electronic
ignitors became the preferred circuit types. Later,
CWA circuits were developed for HPS lamps that
departed from the constant current characteristic
and incorporated ignitors.
Opti-Wave Multi-tap
Our Opti-Wave multi-tap ballasts are HX circuits
that have the same lamp power regulation
characteristic as 277V Opti-Wave ballasts. These
are multiple tap (two, three and four) HX
autotransformers with all of the common US input
voltages. The flux density, losses and power factor
capacitor are chosen for good circuit loading.
They generate modest lamp power variations,
with respect to lamp voltage variations. As a
result, these ballasts provide more consistent
lamp-to-lamp color than CWA. Opti-Wave
multi-tap ballasts can be used in a wider range of
applications than 277V Opti-Wave ballasts while
providing the same performance benefits. Circuit
loading is similar to comparable CWA ballasts.
Constant Wattage Autotransformer
(CWA)
Present day CWA ballasts for metal halide lamps
have changed very little from
early designs dating back to
the 1960’s. Versions with ignitors to operate pulse start
lamps are available, along with
a wide range of wattages. CWA ballasts have a
large installed base in the US. Note that low
wattage metal halide lamp performance with CWA
ballasts has proven to be poor. Most ballasts sold
for lamps of 150 watts or less are reactor or HX
types.
CWA ballasts have two coils. One acts as an
autotransformer with multiple input taps and a
second provides inductance that in series with
a capacitor controls lamp current. For standard
probe start designs, the capacitor usually connects
between the lamp and the secondary coil of the
ballast. In pulse start designs, the capacitor usually
connects between the primary and secondary coils.
A tap near the lamp output on the secondary coil is
connected to the ignitor circuit.

The most mature metal halide electronic ballasts
operate low wattage (150 watts and less) metal
halide lamps. The lower the lamp wattage, the
higher the resonant frequency. Designers have
opted for low frequency circuits that drive low
wattage lamps with square wave current. The
small size and light weight of low watt electronic
ballasts fit retail track lighting applications very
well. High wattage lamps have lower resonant
frequencies, so ballast designs that operate lamps
in the 100 KHz range and above work quite well.
These ballasts have low losses, control/program
lamp power, and are small and light. Dimming, in
conjunction with the use of natural daylight, is a
workable strategy with a shorter payback period.

Magnetically Regulated Ballasts
(a.k.a. Regulated Lag)
Magnetically regulated ballasts use three coils and
saturable magnetic elements to provide a high
degree of power regulation to the lamp. From the
perspective of the lamp, operation is the same as
on a lag ballast with a well-regulated input voltage.
These typically have twice the material content of
comparable CWA ballasts and higher losses. They
are primarily used in heavy industrial settings
where switching of large electrical loads impacts
lighting circuits (for example, a downlight hanging
from a crane in a steel mill). Venture currently does
not offer these because demand is small.

more costly.
Electronic Ballasts
Fluorescent lighting uses electronic ballasts for
essentially all new commercial lighting in the US,
largely because of energy legislation. Fluorescent
lamps generate more lumens per watt when
operated at high frequency
and have no compatibility
issues. HID lamps on
electronics had issues of no
improvement in initial lumens
per watt and acoustic
resonances that disturb lamp
operation. These issues were
resolved. Electronic HID ballasts operate lamps
either above acoustic resonance (HF sine wave
ballasts used for mid-wattage HID), or below
acoustic resonance (low frequency square wave
ballasts used for low wattage HID lamps). The
adoption of electronic HID ballasts has been slow,
yet is growing.

This is undesirable for lamp loads that do not
provide constant voltage. HPS lamps are unstable
when they are operated at constant current. CWA
circuits have been modified for HPS lamps, but
use more materials and result in higher losses. This
is also an issue for metal halide lamps that rise in
voltage with aging. The result is lamp-to-lamp
power variation that shows up as lamp-to-lamp
color variation. As long as demand for CWA
ballasts continues, Venture will provide them
with the best technology available.

Ballast Performance
The following performance factors affect ballast
specifications:
Current Crest Factor (CCF)
The current crest factor is the ratio of the peak
lamp current to the root-mean-square (rms) value
of the current. High current crest factors are
associated with high lumen depreciation of HID
lamps. Lamp specifications set upper limits for
CCF. A typical range of current crest factors for
reactor, HX and regulated lag ballasts is 1.4-1.5.
For CWA ballasts CCF ranges from 1.6 to 1.8.
Electronic ballasts can can be as low as 1.0.
Open Circuit Voltage (OCV)
The voltage across the output terminals of a ballast
with no load connected is the OCV. Lamp OCV
requirements differ for the various ballast circuit
types.
Sustaining Voltage (Vss)
Vss is the instantaneous voltage across the lamp
when lamp current crosses zero. If the voltage is
not sufficient, the lamp will not ignite on the next
half cycle of current and drop out. Adequate Vss is
needed from every ballast type, but is particularly
important for CWA ballasts. However, it is difficult
to measure without sophisticated lab equipment.
ANSI standard values are determined for the
condition. ANSI does not specify Vss for lag or HX
circuits.

AC Line Regulation
Line regulation is the percentage change in lamp
wattage per percentage change of supply voltage.
In the US, Canada and most of Europe, supply
voltage can be unreliable (such as a brownout or
blackout); however, normal variability is small. An
exception might be an industrial application where
large electrical load switching (on and off) affects
lighting circuits. Where supply voltages are steady,
reactor or HX ballasts provide the best
performance at a cost comparable to or lower than
CWA ballasts. When there is a serious line voltage
regulation issue, regulated lag or electronic ballasts
are preferred. Lag (reactor) ballasts dominate HID
lighting in Europe, where supply voltage is
regulated to ±5%. In North America, lighting
circuits wired according to the National Electric
Code typically stay within the ±5%.
Lamp Regulation
By definition, lamp voltage regulation is the change
in lamp wattage divided by the corresponding
change in lamp voltage initially and during life.
The ANSI lamp voltage range allowed for a new
(100-hour) lamp is typically ±12%. Modern lamp
manufacturing processes typically yield metal halide
lamps with a much tighter voltage range. However,
metal halide lamps typically rise between 1 and 2 V
per 1000 hours. At end of life, the metal halide lamp
voltage can be more than 25% higher than at 100
hours. With modern AC power lines regulated
to within 5%, it is more important to have tight
regulation of lamp power with respect to lamp
voltage variation than supply voltage regulation.
This results in the least lamp-to-lamp color and
brightness variations.
The operating characteristics of any ballast can
be mapped in a graph of lamp wattage vs. lamp
voltage. For reactor and HX ballasts, the graph is a
parabola where the peak wattage typically occurs
when the lamp voltage is about 60% of the OCV.
The curve stops when the lamp voltage reaches
about 80% of the OCV. At this point, the lamp
stops operating. The graph for most CWA
or constant current ballasts is a relatively straight
line. HPS lamps need operating characteristics
similar to resistive and reactor ballasts, a constant
current characteristic is unstable.

Lamp Starting
Capacitors
Pulse start metal halide ballasts provide the proper
combination of open circuit voltage and high
voltage pulses to start the lamp. The pulse is
provided by a specially designed ignitor, or starter,
that is used in conjunction with the ballast. As
soon as the ignitor senses that the lamp has started,
it discontinues the pulsing operation. At this point,
the ballast sustaining voltage must be sufficient to
maintain lamp operation. A positive feature of this
system is that the lamp will hot restart in 3-4
minutes following a power interruption. Standard
probe start metal halide ballasts can take as long
as 10-15 minutes to restart the lamp.
With Reactor and HX ballasts, capacitors are
needed to improve (input) power factor. As a result,
the number of lamps that can be operated on a
circuit nearly doubles. In large installations, power
factor correction is also required to avoid power
quality problems and utility penalties. Capacitors
are integral components of CWA and regulated lag
circuits; they will not operate without them. Both
oil-filled (wet) and dry-film capacitor technologies
are commonly used with ballasts. A means to
discharge capacitors after power is turned off
is a safety requirement.
The ballast open circuit voltage starts standard
probe start metal halide and mercury vapor lamps.
Auxiliary electrodes, or probes, aid these lamps in
starting. The probe electrode is disconnected after
lamp has warmed up. Most of these lamps operate
on CWA ballasts that offer a more “peaked” open
circuit voltage, to assist lamp starting.
High Pressure Sodium lamps start in a manner
similar to pulse start metal halide lamps. The
main difference is a slightly less demanding ignitor
pulse requirement.
Minimum ambient temperature
for starting
ANSI and IEC write lamp specifications so that
lamps will start at –30°C (–22°F) to -40°C (-40°F).
Mercury vapor and metal halide lamps will start
at lower voltages at room temperature. As
temperatures drops below –40°C, not much
happens until Xe (HPS) or Ar (metal halide and
mercury vapor) starting gases condense to the
liquid state. At these temperatures (-160°C/–310°F
and lower) there are no lighting opportunities.
Ballast Noise
Magnetic ballasts generate audible noise as a
result of magnetically induced mechanical stress.
This may be amplified or attenuated depending on
fixture design, mounting methods and room
acoustics. There are presently no noise standards
for HID ballasts. Opti-Wave ballasts are
noticeably quieter (by greater than 10 dB) than
CWA, CWI or regulated lag ballasts.
Oil-filled capacitors
Oil-filled capacitors come in metal cases and are
filled with a dielectric fluid. They are rated up to
100°C, although 90°C is the most common rating.
They usually have two 1/4” spade terminal lugs
located on the top for
connection with the ballast.
Most ballasts come with
the mating terminals
already attached to the
appropriate leads. Oil-filled
Oil-filled capacitor
capacitors are very reliable
and available in ratings up to 525V. For some higher
wattage HID ballasts, they are the only choice.
Dry-Film capacitors
Dry-Film capacitors do not
use a dielectric fluid.
Originally, these capacitors
were limited to applications where voltages did
not exceed 330V. Recent
Dry-film capacitor
advances have pushed
this to 400V. They are available in temperature
ratings of 100°C and have become an attractive
alternative to oil-filled capacitors. They are
packaged in plastic housings which do not need
to be grounded and do not need any special
clearances above the terminals.

Introduction
Ballast Technical Info
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
There are HID lamps available internationally that
incorporate internal ignitors. The pulse voltage
appears on the ballast output terminals. These
may not work with all ballast circuits, and could
damage insulation. Request technical support for
help with these.
HID lamp ignitors provide a brief, high voltage
pulse or pulse train to breakdown the gas between
the electrodes of an arc tube. Pulses can range
from several hundred volts to 5KV or higher.
Typical durations are in the µsec range. They are
usually timed to coincide with the peak of OCV. If
they are timed too early or too late, lamps may not
start reliably.
Venture® ignitors and ballasts are capable of
continuous pulsing at maximum rated case
temperature.
There are three basic ignitor circuits in wide use.
The simplest is a capacitor in series with a voltage
sensitive switch that connects across the output
of a reactor ballast. It is used internationally to
start standard metal halide lamps on 220-230V 50
Hz mercury vapor ballasts. It generates 600V pulses
and has the virtue of simplicity and low cost.
Prolonged continuous operation (weeks to months)
degrades ballast insulation and reduces ballast life.
Best practice is the timely replacement of failed
lamps to prolong ballast life. Ignitor case
temperature limits must be observed. There is
little safety margin, so expect short ignitor life
if the limits are exceeded.
The second consists of a capacitor charging
circuit and a voltage sensitive switch. It connects
to a tap on the output inductive element of the
ballast and uses it as a high frequency pulse
transformer. This circuit works with lag, HX, CWA,
or regulated lag circuits. It is the most common
type of ignitor used in North America and is
growing in popularity internationally. It has the
virtue of
simplicity and low
cost. It requires
the ballast
insulation system
to withstand the pulse voltage; because it is tied to
the ballast, the distance the lamp can be mounted
from the ballast depends on pulse attenuation.
Circuits that generate wide pulses permit greater
distance. These circuits are generically referred to
as “impulsers.”
Most Venture pulse start ballasts have distance
limitations of 2 to 15 ft with standard ignitors.
Longer ballast-to-lamp (BTL) distances can be
attained with higher energy or sip ignitors. These
should not be used for short range as they may
damage ballast insulation and shorten ballast life.
Contact Venture for availability and technical
support.
The third circuit is similar to the first except that
it contains a pulse transformer. The virtues are
that the ballast insulation is not exposed to pulse
voltage. The ignitor can be mounted near the lamp
while the ballast can be remote. It can be used
with any ballast type. This is the most costly
circuit, but allows the use of a less expensive
ballast. It is the most commonly used circuit
internationally. The ignitors are referred to as
superimposed ignitors (SIP) because the pulse
is superimposed on top of the ballast OCV.
Venture’s new Smart Ignitor™ products use
a microprocessor to limit pulses, detect lamp
starting, and shut off the ignitor if the lamp does
not start. This control technology is applied to the
“impulser” type ignitor to allow longer ballast to
lamp (BTL) distances without degradation of the
insulation system should prolonged ignitor
operation occur.

Grounding and Wiring
Applications
Core and coil ballasts are insulated with a varnishlike material. This material must be penetrated at
the point where the ground connection is made to
ensure a good connection. This connection can be
made when mounting the ballast to the luminaire,
by using a star washer in combination with one of
the mounting bolts.

Selection
Guide
Caution: Installation and maintenance should only
be performed with the circuit turned off.
Grounding of the Lamp Socket
Shells
The Canadian Electrical Code (Part 1 (1994) Rule
30-314) requires grounding of lamp socket shells;
refer to the connection diagrams. In circuits
with two lamps in series, the socket shell is
non-hazardous, provided that the removal of
the lamp electrically isolates the shell.
Circuit Loading
How many lamps can be operated on a circuit?
According to the 2005 National Electric Code®
(NEC), in Section 210-20:
“Where a branch circuit supplies continuous loads,
or any combination of continuous and noncontinuous loads, the rating of the over-current
device shall not be less than the non-continuous
load plus 125% of the continuous load.”
“A Continuous Load is a load where the maximum
current is expected to continue for three hours
or more.”
For new installations of CWA and regulated lag
ballasts the highest current draw is in continuous
operation. The total number of ballasts must draw
less than 80% of the circuit breaker rating. A
conservative approach would use the current draw
of ballasts operating aged lamps. As lamps age,
system wattage on CWA ballasts climbs, leading
to higher than rated input current. A safety factor
of 1.2 times the rated current is a reasonable
de-rating factor.
For new installations of reactor, HX, and Opti-Wave
ballasts, the highest current draw is when the lamp
is off or just after starting. This occurs for seconds
during starting or for minutes following a power
interruption. Per the NEC, this is a non-continuous
load. Following a lamp failure, power could be
applied for a long time. The NEC provides no
guidance for dealing with failed lamps that result
in an open circuit current draw.
While it is unlikely that a lamp will be replaced in
less than three hours, it is equally unlikely that
users will tolerate very many lamp outages without
replacements on a given circuit. As in the CWA
case, a 1.2 safety factor seems reasonable. Divide
the circuit breaker rating by the open circuit
current draw of the ballast to determine the
number of ballasts that can be connected (round
down). Next, divide 80% of the circuit breaker
rating by the normal operating current (round
down) of a ballast. The first is normally the limiting
factor in determining the allowable number of a
ballasts on a circuit.
In retrofits, higher wattage lamps and ballasts are
usually replaced with better
performing lower wattage
lamps and ballasts.
Circuit loading is
rarely an issue as
long as the circuit
was properly loaded
initially.
Agency Certifications:
This is one of the most common Underwriters
Laboratories marks. If a product carries
this mark, it means UL found that
samples of this product met its safety
requirements. These requirements are
primarily based on UL’s own published
Standards for Safety.
Consumers rarely see this mark, because it is for
components that are part of a larger
product or system. These components
may have restrictions on their
performance or may be incomplete
in construction. The Component Recognition
marking is found on a wide range of products,
including some switches, power supplies, printed
wiring boards, some kinds of industrial control
equipment and thousands of other products.
The UL Recognized Component Mark, for components
certified by UL to meet both Canadian and U.S.
requirements, became effective
in 1998. Although UL had
not originally planned to
introduce a combined
Recognized Component Mark, the popularity of
the Canada/U.S. Listing and Classification Marks
among clients with UL certifications for both
countries has led to the new mark.
This is one of the most common Canadian
Standards Association (CSA) marks. If a product
carries this mark, it means CSA found that

Lead Ballast: A magnetic ballast having a
leading lamp current with respect to the
supply voltage; current limiting is
accomplished by means of an inductor as
well as a capacitor connected in series
with the lamp; this includes CWA and
CWI ballasts
High Reactance Autotransformer (HX)
Ballast: An autotransformer lag circuit that
uses a magnetic shunt path between primary
and secondary coils to control reactance; has
operating characteristics similar to those of
a reactor and has input taps to accept a wide
range of supply voltages
Light Center Length (LCL): The distance
from the center of the visible arc discharge
to the bottom contact of the base
Hot Restart or Restrike Time: The time from
lamp extinction after a supply voltage
interruption to lamp re-start

account the human eye sensitivity curve so
that more weight is given to the yellow-green
part of the light spectrum (photopic)
Line Regulation: The ratio of lamp power
to ballast input voltage often expressed
as a percentage
Lumen Maintenance: The lumen output
of a lamp at a given operating time or a
percentage of 100 hour lumens at that time
Lumens Per Watt (LPW): See Efficacy

STANDARD WARRANTY
Limited Warranty on Lamps:
Venture Lighting statement on lamp life
For years, most lamp manufacturers have used typical life
expectancy as the basis for lamp replacements under warranty.
Venture Lighting International understands the parameters
involved in life expectancy and also uses typical life expectancy
curves as part of their lamp warranty. Venture is aware of their
customers’ needs and offers additional warranty protection.
Warranty
1. Upon receipt and/or initial installation by the customer, Venture
Lighting International will replace any lamp determined to be
defective in materials, workmanship or proper operating
parameters.
2. Venture Lighting will replace any lamp that fails within one year
from the purchase date (based on 5000 hrs/yr operation) when
the failure is determined to be lamp related. (Applies to lamps
with life ratings of greater than 7500 hours.)
3. During economic life, Venture Lighting will supply replacement
lamps for failed lamps in excess of the failure rate projected by
life expectancy curves when the lamps are operated correctly
and in accordance with the guidelines outlined in this technical
guide.
Lamp Performance
All performance ratings are based on lamp testing at rated watts,
under controlled conditions, using primary AC electrical circuits
with the highest quality auxiliary equipment. The performance of
any lamp may vary somewhat under typical service conditions.
All lamp specifications and ratings are subject to change without
notice.
Limited Warranty on Ballasts:
Venture® ballast products are warrantied free from manufacturing
and workmanship defects for a period of two years from the date
of shipment. During this period, Venture will, at its option, repair
or replace ballast products which prove to be defective or out of
specification. This warranty is granted by Venture only to the
original purchaser or first end-user of such ballast products.
This warranty is conditional upon installation, maintenance and
operation in accordance with Venture’s instructions and specifications set forth in the purchase order or contract at the time of
order and in accordance with the standards of The National
Electric Code (NEC), Underwriters’ Laboratory, Inc. (UL) and the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and, in Canada,
with the standards of the Canadian Standards Association (CSA).
Damage by misuse or abnormal conditions of storage, installation, maintenance or operation, including, but not limited to,
excessive temperatures or evidence of partial or complete disassembly beyond normal maintenance or expansion procedure void
this warranty in its entirety. The conditions of any tests performed concerning any ballast product claimed to be defective in
accordance with the terms of this warranty shall be mutually
agreed upon in writing between the original purchaser or first
end-user and Venture and Venture may be represented at any
such test.
No implied statutory warranty of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose shall apply beyond the afore-mentioned warranty period. This warranty excludes other warranties, expressed
or implied and is the exclusive remedy of the claimant. Venture
shall not be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages. Venture’s liability on any claim of any kind, nature or
description arising out of, resulting from or concerning any
aspect of this warranty agreement or from the product or services furnished hereunder shall not exceed the price of the specific
ballast or ballasts which give rise to the claim. For warranty
service or repair, the buyer shall prepay all shipping charges to
Venture and Venture shall pay shipping charges to return the
repaired or replaced item to the buyer. However, the buyer shall
pay all shipping charges, duties and taxes for products returned
to Venture from a country other than that of the United States of
America.
Product replacement/liability limits
The foregoing warranty shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of
the purchaser and Venture’s sole and exclusive remedy to the
purchaser. NO WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR ANY SPECIFIC
OR PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS MADE OR IS TO BE IMPLIED.
NO OTHER WARRANTY APPLIES. Venture will not, under any
circumstance, whether as a result of breach of contract, warranty
tort or otherwise, be liable for any costs or damages, including
lost profits or revenues, incidental, special or consequential damages.
Some states or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation
of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific
legal rights and you may also have other rights which may vary
from state to state and province to province. No distributor,
salesperson, dealer, retailer or other representative has the
authority to change or modify this warranty, either orally or in
writing, in any respect.
Dimming Policy
Warranty policy on the dimming of Venture Lighting International
metal halide lamps:
SCOPE: Venture Lighting metal halide lamps can only be step or
bi-level dimmed by the switched capacitance method on a CWA
or CWI ballast. Line voltage and electronic dimming systems are
not covered by this policy. Contact Venture Lighting for further
information.
WARRANTY POLICY: Venture Lighting International, Inc. agrees
to extend a limited one-year warranty on lamp life to lamps operated on dimmable control gear, provided the following conditions
are met:
1) A lamp must never be started by a ballast in the dimmed operating mode.
2) During any lamp start (cold or hot restart), the ballast must
meet all of the requirements for starting and sustaining a lamp
described in ANSI lamp standard C78.43.
3) The lamp must be allowed to warm up for at least 10 minutes
after the lamp has started (20 minutes for lamp wattages
greater than 450). Only then can dimming begin.
4) For system design purposes an ANSI reference lamp cannot
be dimmed below 50% of the rated lamp wattage at 90%

“ONE CALL” WARRANTY
Venture’s “One Call” limited warranty program is first in the
industry in its comprehensive system coverage. It doubles the
warranty period on lamps and ballasts purchased and installed
as part of the Uni-Form® pulse start system. Since Venture
designs and manufactures the lamps and ballasts, customers
who purchase a complete system need to make only “one call”
to receive full service on any component from Venture’s team of
technical experts. This means no finger pointing; one source, one
call to 1-800-451-2606 for service. Technical assistants will
answer all your questions.
Warranty Activation/Service Claims –
You Must Register
To activate the One Call warranty, Venture must receive a
completed registration form within 30 days after installation of
the Uni-Form system. You may complete the registration form
on Venture’s web site at www.venturelighting.com or call our
toll-free number to have the form sent to you. Venture will send
an acknowledgment for each registration received. For
information, service, technical assistance or replacement claims,
call the One Call toll-free number at 1-800-451-2606. If a lamp
or ballast in the Uni-Form system fails to operate within the
warranty period (based on a maximum 5000hrs./yr operation and
normal mortality), Venture will provide a free replacement. No
reimbursement for labor is made for lamp or ballast replacement.
Warranty Terms And Conditions
Venture’s One Call warranty covers lamps and ballasts purchased
and installed together as a Uni-Form system. The installation
must be operated under proper environmental conditions and in
accordance with current National Electrical Code, Underwriters
Laboratory and ANSI specifications. This warranty will be voided
if conditions demonstrate abnormal use or stress, such as
operating temperatures in excess of maximum rated
temperatures, under/over voltage conditions, excessive switching
cycles or operating hours or improper lamp or ballast installation.
The lamp warranty will be voided if Venture® lamps are replaced
with any other manufacturer’s lamps. The entire warranty will
be voided if Venture ballasts are replaced with any other
manufacturer’s ballasts.
Product Replacement/liability Limits
The foregoing warranty shall be the sole and exclusive remedy
of the purchaser and Venture’s sole and exclusive remedy to the
purchaser. NO WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR ANY SPECIFIC
OR PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS MADE OR IS TO BE IMPLIED.
NO OTHER WARRANTY APPLIES. Venture will not, under any
circumstance, whether as a result of breach of contract or
warranty tort, or otherwise, be liable for any costs or damages,
including lost profits or revenues, incidental, special or
consequential damages.
Venture reserves the right to examine all failed lamps and ballasts
purchased as part of a Uni-Form system.
Some states or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation
of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation
or exclusion may not apply to you. No distributor, salesperson,
dealer, retailer or other representative has the authority to change
or modify this warranty, either orally or in writing, in any respect.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also
have other rights which may vary from state to state and
province to province.
