COMPACT FLUORESCENT BENEFITS:

• Instant on - Compact uorescent lamps produce light instantly. This allows for the system to be
turned o and on as required for optimized energy savings

• Instant restrike - Compact uorescent lamps come on as soon as they are energized with no
delayed restrike time. The need for emergency switched quartz restrike feature is eliminated.

• Color Rendering - White light with a color rendering index (CRI) of 82 provides for constant, uniform
color over the life of the lamp. High CRI allows for brighter, clearer, more vibrant color recognition

• Elimination of UV - Compact uorescent lamps eliminate the concerns of ultraviolet radiation.

• Improved lumen maintenance - Compact uorescent lamps have less lumen depreciation at mean

life than typical metal halide lamp types. This results in more consistent light output over the life of
the lamp.

• Low noise - Compact uorescent electronic ballasts used do not produce perceptible noise

• Switchable Light Levels - Multiple ballasts provide the opportunity to independently switch lamp

pairs for multiple, stepped light levels. Optional wiring for circuited versions is available.

• Emergency battery back-up - Battery back-up allows for emergency lighting without the need for an
auxiliary power back-up system

• Multiple lamp back-up - The use of multiple lamps insures that with the independent failure of a
single lamp, the xture continues to provide light until relamping occurs.

• Safe Operation - Compact uorescent light sources do not require specic operation guidelines for

safe operation.
