Safeguarding by means of leakage current protection type A and type AC
according to IEC 60755 is not permitted!
The ELC operates in principle as a frequency converter and is equipped with a
mains filter whose leakage current could activate fuse protection.

Contact to the grounding connector must always be ensured.
Additional measures must be taken to ensure that
touching the appliance. This could be by means of a universal leakage current
protection type B, taking into consideration the increased response threshold, or
by means of an independent equipotential connection

1.3 Correct operation

The ELC is an electrical unit intended to be installed in the switch cabinets of
industrial high-voltage power installations. It is conceived as an electronic ballast
for the operation of lamps intended for this purpose.

Any other use is deemed as misuse. The manufacturer will not assume liability for
damage resulting from misuse.
A pre-requisite for authorised operation of the ELC is the observance of both the
operating and maintenance instructions and the safety advice.

1.4 Extended use

Extended use beyond the operating specifications as stated is not permitted.
The manufacturer will not assume liability if the equipment is used in any other
way. The operator acts at his own risk.

Any operation beyond the scope of the authorised operation is considered to be
misuse.

Description of functions page 5

2 Description of functions

The ELC is an electronic power supply unit for the operation of gas discharge lamps with
electrical properties as described in chapter 6.

In contrast to conventional ballasts (inductive lamp ballast or transformer or transformer with
transductor), the lamp with an electronic ballast is operated with high frequency (approx.
100 kHz). The lamp does not flicker and dimming is infinitely adjustable to a range between
20 % and 100 % of the electric power or to between 15 % and 100 % of the UV radiation
respectively.

Dimming

The possibility of dimming the lamp has two advantages. Firstly the lamp can be switched to
minimum load (standby operation) during longer idle times and energy can thus be saved.
Secondly the optimum lamp power can be determined and adjusted as appropriate.

Power control

The ELC offers a high level of lamp power constancy due to its integrated power control.
Variations in operating voltage of ± 10 % do not affect lamp power.

Ignition device

When the lamp is switched on the ELC initiates trigger pulses to fire the lamp; a separate
ignition device is not required.

Other performance characteristics

• High level of electrical efficiency.

• The potential-free control inputs allow various lamp conditions such as maximum lamp

power, dimming or standby to be set.

• The digital control inputs are designed for control voltages of between 10 and 30 V AC or
DC. Therefore ELC can be easily integrated into the installation’s electric system.

• Lamp current and lamp power are continuously recorded and output as analogous
0-10 V signals.

• The ELC monitors the lamp cables for earth fault.

• The lamp output potential is separated from that of the supply voltage.

• The ELC is both short-circuit proof and safe in open circuit operation at the lamp output.

Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 show the respective electrical installation. Operation of appliances type
NE12-NE32 / NE12D-NE32D requires a power choke in series (see technical data chapter 6).
These appliances are implemented where the mains supply shows a low fault level or high
supply impedance.

The lamp feeder cable shielding must be connected to the ELC. To this end the connector
has an EMC screw connection (also see: connection lamp feeder cable).

If wished, the shielding can also be connected to the lamp unit.

The connection of mains supply cables and lamp feeder cables must be
separated from control cables.

For the mains power supply quality standards in accordance with EN 50160
(mains frequency, voltage drops, transients etc.) are pre-requisite.

ELCs of type “N” (N12/N16) are not designed for operation on high impedance
mains. Therefore the one-phase short-circuit power at the supply point must be
20 times higher than the nominal power of the UV installation or than the sum of
the nominal power of all electronic loads in the same arm.

3.4 Explanations of the control functions for ELC

3.4.1 Release relay

The release relay indicates the trouble-free operation of the unit.

This means that the relay closes when the ELC (see chapter 4.2) is switched on and remains
closed during operation providing there is no defect.

A typical defect would be that the lamp does not fire.

3.4.2 Control input START

High: lamp is on

Low: lamp is off

By applying the High signal the lamp is fired and warms up at maximum current until the desired
power is achieved (see below).

We recommend warm-up at maximum power. After a short time (approx. 2 mins) the full output
has been reached and the lamp power can be varied as desired.

3.4.3 Setting lamp power

Stepless (infinitely variable)

The lamp can be dimmed steplessly from between approx. 20 % to 100 % of the nominal
power. The lamp power is set by applying an analog voltage of between 0 V and 10 V to control
input SET VALUE.

• 0 V corresponds to min. power P

• 10 V corresponds to max. power P

SET VALUE can be controlled manually by means of an external potentiometre.

3.4.5 Earth fault control

The ELC (electronic ballast) has been fitted with an earth fault control system.

The ELC is fitted with an earth fault relay ES for the purpose of indicating an earth fault. During
trouble-free operation the relay is closed (provided the ELC is connected to the power supply
voltage).

The earth fault control is also active when the lamp is switched off.

The lamp should not be switched on if the relay ES is open.

Series N12-N32 und NE12-NE32 Series NE12D-NE32D

In the case of an earth fault through the isolating resistor R_error (see Fig. 11)
the relay ES opens .

The error is only displayed, the ELC
does not switch off the lamp. The error
is also not stored by the ELC.

If an earth fault occurs during lamp
operation the ballast must be switched
off immediately and the error must be
corrected. The lamp must not be
started when an earth fault has
occurred.

In order for the earth fault control to function properly it is essential that the ELC
is connected as prescribed, particularly the earth connectors.

The relay contact ES (pins 8 and 13 on the control connector) opens when the
isolation resistance R_error is below approx. 200 kΩ.

The ELC turns off the lamp. The error
is stored in the error memory of the
ELC.

If an earth fault occurs during lamp
operation, the lamp is switched off by
the ELC. In the event of an earth fault,
the lamp can not be ignited.

Fig. 11: Earth fault monitoring

In order to avoid an unwanted reaction of the earth fault control during faultless
operation, the isolation resistance of the lamp cables and all lamp connectors
must be greater than 10 MΩ.

If the release relay RELEASE (see 3.4.1) is open the earth fault relay ES will not
give clear information! In this case an error message “earth fault“ should not be
issued.

4.1 Initial operation

The operative parameters of the ELC, such as the scope of the trigger pulse when switching
on the lamp, is set by the manufacturer.

manufacturer. Adjustment to the internal potentiometer can cause malfunction and
damage to the equipment and is therefore prohibited.

Please assure that a suitable lamp (see chapter 6) is connected and correctly wired!

4.2 Switching on the ELC

• The ELC is switched on by applying the operating voltage.

4.3 Switching on the lamp

• A HIGH signal is applied to the digital START control input to switch on the lamp.

If a HIGH signal has already been given to the digital START control input before
the ELC is switched on, then the lamp will not start up. In the case of a power
failure, the ELC cannot automatically switch on the lamp when power returns.
Before switching on the lamp, a LOW signal must be applied to the digital control
input.

Turn the ELC on maximum lamp power during the lamp warm-up period.

Maximum lamp power can be adjusted as follows:

• HIGH signal at the digital MAX control input or

• 10 V control voltage at the analogous SET VALUE control input.

During warm-up the lamp power stays at a very low level over a longer period of time and after
approximately 60 seconds rapidly increases to its nominal power. The lamp is operated with
increased power until the nominal power is reached.

4.4 Dimming Operation

After having reached nominal operation, the desired lamp power can be infinitely adjusted.

• Lamp power is adjusted via control voltage (0 – 10 V) at the analogous SET VALUE control
input.

In this context, 0 V are tantamount to minimum and 10 V to maximum lamp power.

The adjustment of lamp power via the analogous SET VALUE
possible if a LOW signal is applied to the digital MIN and MAX control inputs.

4.5 Standby Operation

During longer idle times the ELC can be switched to standby operation. The lamp is operated
at minimum power but can be brought up to nominal power within a few seconds.

Standby operation is set as follows:

• a HIGH signal at the digital MIN control input or

• 0 V control voltage at the analogous SET VALUE control input.

The warm-up time from standby operation to nominal operation depends on the lamp's ambient
conditions. If cooling is too intensive during standby operation, the acceleration time is
prolonged.

The adjustment of standby operation is only possible if a LOW signal is applied to
the digital control input MAX.

4.6 Switching off the Lamp

• The lamp is switched off by applying a LOW signal to the digital START control input.

In order to avoid heat accumulation in the ELC, the operating voltage should be
left on for a few minutes. Before restarting, the lamp must be sufficiently cooled
down as it cannot be fired otherwise.
