Application Information
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC T5HO
Ballasts are ideally suited for:
• Office
• Schools
• Commercial
• Retail
• Hospitality
• Institutional
• New construction
• Renovations
The SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC T5HO
0.80BF ballasts operate PENTRON T5HO
ECOLOGIC lamps. The ballast is tuned to
provide a unique 0.80 ballast factor,
providing 20% energy savings over
conventional 2 lamp 54W T5HO systems.
The system includes SYLVANIA’s new line
of QUICKSTEP stepped switching ballasts.
QUICKSTEP ballasts are specially designed
to meet California Energy Commission’s
Title 24 requirements for multi-level
lighting controls (Section 131). The
combined lamp and ballast system offers
high performance features that are
standard on SYLVANIA’s Professional
Series of ballasts.
QUICKTRONIC T5HO ballasts contain
QUICKSENSE ballast technology, a
patented circuitry designed to shut down
the system reliably and safely when
lamps reach end-of-life.
System Information
QUICKTRONIC 0.80BF T5HO Systems
operate from 120V through 277V, 50 or
60Hz, eliminating “wrong voltage” wiring
errors and reducing the number of models
in inventory by half.
The QUICKSTEP system has two AC line
inputs in addition to the neutral wire.
These AC line inputs must be connected to
the same phase of the line voltage. The
two line inputs can be configured to
provide a bi-level light output system by
wiring the system with two switches. Each
switch provides 50% power to the ballast.
When both switches are on, the lamps
operate at full light output.
When either switch is off, the lamps
operate in a dimmed mode and the ballast
factor is reduced by 50%. In addition,
system power is reduced to levels that are
compliant with Section 131b-California
Title 24.

Alternatively, QUICKSTEP ballasts can be
controlled by occupancy sensors allowing
for customized zone controls and various
energy saving configurations.
PROStart ballasts deliver optimum starting
conditions to provide up to 100,000
switching cycles for use on occupancy
sensors and building control systems.
QUICKTRONIC 0.80BF T5HO is available as
a two-lamp model in either a Professional
or QUICKSTEP version, to cover a wide
range of applications.
Input Initial System
Power System Efficacy
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 end-of-life lamps are replaced
with new ones.
