Maximize the benefits of a lighting management system. Offers continuous, flicker-free 100 % to 10 % dimming; ideal for use where saving energy, increasing flexibility, and maximizing productivity are the goals of the lighting design. Integral sensor connection provides power for and responds to one occupancy sensor, one photo sensor, and one personal control input (infrared receiver or wallstation). Communicates status and sensor inputs over the EcoSystem digital link. Programmed rapid start design ensures full rated lamp life while dimming and cycling. Lamps turn on to any dimmed level without flashing to full brightness. Low harmonic distortion throughout the entire dimming range. Frequency of operation ensures that ballast does not interfere with infrared devices. End-of-lamp-life protection circuitry ensures safe operation throughout entire lamp life. Ultra-quiet operation. Non-volatile memory restores all ballast settings after power failure. Ballast maintain consistent light output for linear lamp lengths. Protected from miswires of any input to power to control lead, or from lamp leads to each other and/or ground. 100 % performance tested at factory. Custom ballast factors available.
