Fluorescent bulb ballast HF-Performer III

emergency

HF-Performer III PL-T/C is a high-frequency electronic ballast for PL-T and PL-C fluorescent lamps. It is designed for applications where high energy efficiency and robust safety/performance compliance are required (CELMA EEI A2).

Benefits

• Robust design that meets relevant international safety and performance standards while delivering good energy efficiency.
• Automatic restart after voltage dip or lamp exchange for simplified operation and re-lamping.
• Suitable for DC emergency operation (186–275 V at -10 °C) in accordance with IEC/EN 60598-2-22 luminaire norms.

Features

• 50,000-hour lifetime at maximum case temperature, combined with over 60,000 on/off switches on one lamp.
• Programmed, flicker-free, pre-heated start (< 2.0 s) allowing frequent switching without reducing useful lamp life.
• Active power factor correction to ensure stable light output despite mains-voltage fluctuations.
• Protection against excessive mains voltage and incorrect connections.

Applications

• Commercial indoor lighting where reduced wattage per square meter or lower operating costs are required.
• Spotlights, downlights and recessed fixtures used in retail stores, office buildings, supermarkets, hotels and convenience stores.
• Integration with presence/movement detection control systems (e.g. Philips OccuPlus).
• Industrial premises with long operating hours.
