Systel ESLS Lamp Ballasts
Systel's universal, multi-channel, programmable ballasts (UL and CE certified) support error-free, two-way power line communications (PLC). Ballast channels are individually addressable and support parallel lamp configurations. Ballasts are easily modified during manufacturing to support any fluorescent light type, and further modifications are planned for HID, Low Pressure, Neon, and LED lamps.
Highlights
- Each channel provides separate lamp control: on/off, dimming to 1%, independent protection, and end of life control.
- Ballasts are programmed to drive lamps using optimal parameters, saving energy and extending lamp life
- Ballast options of Two-, Four-, and Eight- channels
- Ballasts store grouping/scenario IDs for fast group response
- Ballast support for DALI command set.
- Ballasts report lamp status and failure to monitor (BMS or LCU)
- Low flicker: 1.45 and 1.5 at 100% and 5% light, respectively
- Start up at any level: 1% to 100%, without flash.
- Start up at last level saved in ballast
