Application Information
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC
PROStart T8 is ideally suited for:
• Any applications where extended
lamp life is required to reduce
maintenance costs
• Energy retrofits
• Occupancy sensors
• Building control systems
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC PROStart
programmed rapid start electronic ballasts
operate linear U-bend SUPERSAVER
equivalent T8 lamps in applications where
extended lamp life is required.
QUICKTRONIC PROStart ballasts utilize a
micro-controller based circuit to apply a
precise amount of cathode heat prior to
starting the lamp. This ensures that the
cathodes have reached optimum temper-
ature before the lamp is started. Once the
lamp has ignited, the ballast eliminates the
cathode voltage which optimizes system
efficiencies similar to instant start ballasts.
QUICKTRONIC PROStart ballasts are NEMA
Premium Ballast (NPB) program compliant.
The NPB program promotes the use of high
efficiency T8 electronic ballasts by meeting
or exceeding the Ballast Efficiency Factors,
(BEF) established by the CEE, (Consortium
for Energy Efficiency). For additional information on this program go to:
®
www.cee1.org or www.nema.org
System Information
QUICKTRONIC PROStart ballasts provide
optimum starting conditions to provide
over 100,000 switching cycles for
occupancy sensor and building control
system applications.
QUICKTRONIC PSN UNV operates from
120V through 277V, eliminating “wrong
voltage” wiring errors and reducing the
number of models in inventory by half.
In addition to substantial energy savings,
QUICKTRONIC PSN ballasts deliver an
optimized programmed start which extends
lamp life. This advanced starting process
drastically reduces the amount of cathode
sputtering, resulting in improved lamp life in
all applications including short start cycles.
QUICK 60+
when you use SYLVANIA lamps and ballasts
together as a system. See the QUICK 60+
warranty bulletin for complete details.
The QUICKTRONIC PROStart ballasts are
ideally suited for applications requiring
extended lamp life. In short cycle applications, our PROStart ballasts will deliver three
times the number of start cycles compared
to electronic Instant Start ballasts.
