SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC PS operates
PENTRON T5 lamps with full lumen output
and optimal system performance.
SYSTEM PS ballasts contain QUICKSENSE
ballast technology, a patented circuitry
designed to shut down the system reliably
and safely when lamps reach end-of-life.
Setting the standard for quality, SYSTEM
PS is also covered by our QUICK 60+
warranty, the first and most comprehensive system warranty in the industry.
SYSTEM PS is available as a two lamp
model which can be wired for one lamp
operation to cover a wide range of
applications.
System Information
System PS operates from 120V through
277V, 50 or 60Hz, eliminating “wrong
voltage” wiring errors and reducing the
number of models in inventory by half.
PROStart ballasts provide optimum starting
conditions to provide up to 100,000
switching cycles for use on occupancy
sensors and building control systems.
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.
The two lamp unit can be wired for one
lamp operation, allowing for an additional
50% reduction in inventory model numbers.

SYSTEM PS comes in a 0.87"H x 1.18"W
profile, and PENTRON lamps are designed
to provide peak performance at 35°C
fixture ambient, allowing for smaller and
more innovative fixtures.
