Venture electronic ballast now incorporates DALI

Venture Lighting, BMS, BEMS, electronic ballast

Venture Lighting’s Ventronic Global electronic dimming ballast uses DALI digital dimming, simple switch dimming or 1 to 10 V variable dimming. These ballasts have a very low power consumption and a power factor close to unity. They support lamp dimming up to 70%.

Ventronic ballasts are ‘lamp friendly’, facilitating quicker restrike, while helping to significantly extend lamp life. They are also highly resilient to voltage spikes and fluctuations.

Used with Venture’s pulse-start metal-halide lamps, the lamp life is typically 30 000 h with an efficacy of up to 110 lm/W and lumen maintenance of 90% for the life of the lamp.

These ballasts are compatible with all widely available dimming sensors and controls.
