SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) energy-saving electronic DULUX L
40W ballasts save up to 6 to 9% over
standard electronic ballasts without
compromising light output or lamp life.
The added energy savings also provides
for a quicker payback.
SYSTEM DL40 is available in a one lamp,
two lamp and a three lamp model. All are
Universal Voltage (120-277V) models.
SYSTEM DL40 provides over 30% more
lumen output than 34T12 systems at
nearly the same power input. Also, the
small lamp diameter and sleek profile
provide new design options and improved
fixture optics.
SYSTEM DL40 ballasts contain QUICKSENSE ballast technology, a patented
circuitry designed to shut down the
system reliably and safely when the
lamps have reached their end-of-life.
System Information
SYSTEM DL40 uses instant start operation
to provide the highest system efficacy and
to assure low temperature starting
capability. Instant start also provides for
maximum remote wiring distances.
QUICKSENSE ballast technology helps to
protect against overheated bases and
sockets, as well as cracking of the glass
wall, and uses dynamic end-of-lamp-life
sensing to avoid false shutdowns caused
by some static sensing methods. QUICKSENSE ballast technology will auto reset
when the lamps are replaced with new
ones.
A complete OSRAM SYLVANIA System
Performance Guide showing performance
characteristics for all combinations of
lamps and ballasts is available upon
request.
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) ballasts operate on input voltage
from 120V through 277V, eliminating
“wrong voltage” wiring errors and
reducing the number of models in
inventory by half.
