2 ELETROMGNETI BLLSTS Ballast Date odes dvance electromagnetic fluorescent lamp ballasts are date stamped on the ballast cover to designate month and year of manufacture. The month is indicated first, followed by the year. In the -90 example shown (-90), the manufacturing date is January, 990.

Those fixtures employing a simple reactive type ballast are exempted. The protector is located within the ballast case to prevent physical damage and tampering. dvance electromagnetic ballasts ordered with DVN-guard lass P ballast protection (TP suffix) are equipped with a thermally actuated automatic reclosing protective device. This revolutionary development was originally designed and introduced by dvance, and today this lass P device is a requirement of the National Electrical ode in all indoor lighting installations. Safety The National Electrical ode requires grounding of fluorescent fixtures. The fluorescent ballast case must be grounded either to the fluorescent fixture or, if remote mounted, by other means such as a wire from the ballast case to ground. Without proper fixture and ballast grounding, a shock hazard may exist due to the fluorescent fixture becoming energized by an internal ballast failure to case. lso, all ballasts have normal leakage current. When the ballast is properly grounded, the leakage current does not constitute a hazard. The metal of a fluorescent fixture is a starting aid when properly grounded. T Fluorescent lamps rated at 40 watts or less used for rapid or trigger start operation must be mounted within " of a grounded metal surface. T8 Lamps must be mounted within 34" of a grounded metal surface. ll other lamps must be mounted within " of a grounded metal surface. n important additional factor for proper lamps starting is polarity. The white ballast lead must be connected to the ground of the power supply (neutral) and the black lead to the hot line wire. reversal of polarity may result in lamp damage or improper lamp starting. old Weather Operation Lumen ratings of fluorescent lamps apply for operation in still air at a temperature of 77 F. While many fluorescent lamps and fluorescent lamp ballasts are designed to give their best performance at 77 F, they will provide reasonably good light output down to F. Further decreases in ambient temperature will result in decreased light output. Variables such as humidity, line voltage, fixture design and variations within the particular design of the lamp and the fluorescent lamp ballast play an important part in determining the low temperature starting limit. These are the two considerations for low temperature application:. of the lamps Low temperatures change the electrical starting characteristics of a fluorescent lamp. s the fluorescent lamp becomes colder, it becomes more difficult to start. Therefore, a fluorescent ballast must have a higher starting voltage; thus, follow the temperature recommendations shown in the tables. Ballasts designed for low temperature use ensure reliable starting only and not the light output.. Operating the lamps The light output of any fluorescent lamp depends on the mercury vapor pressure within the lamp. Maximum light output for most fluorescent lamps occurs when the bulb temperature is about 0 F. s bulb wall temperature goes above 0 F the mercury vapor pressure within the tube increases and the light output decreases. Interestingly enough, at lower bulb-wall temperatures, the mercury condenses on the tube, pressure drops and the light output again decreases. This is inherent in all fluorescent lamps. In order to prevent reduction in light output at low temperatures the lamp should be enclosed so it has a chance to overcome the low bulb-wall temperature by the heat generated by the lamp. In general, outdoor lighting installations have tended toward 800 and 0m lamps since the additional heat generated by these lamps will provide better illumination in cold weather than can be obtained with 430m lamps. The 430m lamps are not recommended by the lamp manufacturer for starting conditions below 0 F. bove this temperature.shielding is required to a greater degree than with the more heavily loaded lamps. Special low temperature lamps, which may be purchased with shields, are available for 0m operation. DVNE, 75 WEST HIGGINS ROD, ROSEMONT, IL 008. TEL: (847) , FX: (847)

3 ELETROMGNETI BLLSTS Ballast Sound The slight hum present in fluorescent lighting installations originates from the inherent magnetic action in the core & coil assembly of the ballasts. This hum may be amplified by the method of mounting the ballast in the fixture...the fixture design...and, more often than not, this hum is amplified by the resonant qualities of the ceiling, walls, floors and furniture. In planning a lighting installation, careful consideration must be given to the selection of the fluorescent lamp ballast, the lighting fixture and room components. These precautions will ensure the quietest installation possible. The choice of fluorescent lamp ballast should be made on the basis of selecting the one rated quietest for a specific location or interior as some ballast have a more discernable hum due to basic construction features and electrical ratings. It is therefore essential that a ballast which is placed in an enclosure be suitably ventilated. Where more than one ballast is installed in an enclosure, the ballast should be positioned far enough apart to provide adequate heat dissipation. To assist in limiting the temperature rise of ballasts, the following procedures are recommended: Mount ballast with maximum number of sides in direct contact with the metal channel of fixture. Radiators are an excellent way of dissipating heat. Provide fixture ventilation. Paint the unpainted fixture channels with a non-metallic finish to increase radiation.

Temperature and Ventilation Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc. stipulates that the temperature limitation of a fluorescent lamp ballast using lass insulation at normal operation should have a maximum ballast coil temperature of 5 ( F) and maximum ballast case temperature of 90 (94 F) at its hottest spot. Ballast life will be reduced if it is operated at a temperature above these limits. fluorescent lamp ballast, like other electrical equipment, generates heat during normal operation. If not maintained within prescribed limits, this heat will become the primary cause of reduced ballast life. Heat generated in the conventional ballast is transferred to the case through a silica compound which totally surrounds the internal components and is then dissipated to the surrounding air or mounting surface by conduction, convection or radiation.
