Ignitor can restart discharge lamps immediately

Megaman, lighting, ignitor, b.a.g Electronics

The Zirius electronic hot-restrike ignitor from b,a,g, Electronics for high-pressure-discharge lamps does not require a cooling-down phase, so lamps can be restarted immediately after a mains failure. This new generation of Zirius is error free to eliminate voltage flashover to the luminaire connection terminals in the device and has two wires for easy and rapid connection.

These ignitors have low power loss. Flicker-free and soft lamp start extend lamp life.

Zirius is said to be ideal for applications where instant re-ignition or anti-panic lighting is required — such as airports, sports stadia, public squares, exhibition halls and industrial plants.
