Application Information
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC
High Efficiency is ideally suited for:
• Any applications where the lowest
power T8 systems are needed for
maximum energy savings
• Energy retrofits
• Commercial & retail
• Hospitality & institutional
• New construction
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) energy-saving electronic T8 ballasts
save up to 6% over standard electronic
ballasts without compromising light output
or lamp life. The added energy savings
also provides for a quicker payback. QHE
ballasts also meet the most demanding
utility rebate standards.
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) operates OCTRON T8 lamps with
maximum efficacy and high lumen output,
and provides 30-50% energy savings when
compared to F40T12 magnetic systems.
Small can enclosure allows for low profile
fixture design. Small size also provides
transportation, inventory and ergonomic
benefits.
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) is also covered by our QUICK 60+
warranty, the first and most comprehensive lamp & ballast system warranty in
the industry.
System Information
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) 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.
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
(QHE) electronic ballasts have very low
harmonic distortion (<10% THD) for high
system performance.
Ballast operates at >40kHz to reduce
potential interference with infrared control
systems.
A complete OSRAM SYLVANIA System
Performance Guide showing performance
characteristics for all combinations of lamps
and ballasts is available upon request.
Parallel circuitry is utilized to keep the
®
remaining lamps lit if one or more should
go out.
