High-Efficiency Performance and Versatile Compatibility
Designed to deliver 30-60% energy savings compared to magnetic F34T12 ballasted systems, this QHE ballast provides a robust, eco-friendly solution for lighting retrofits. Its parallel circuitry allows remaining lamps to continue operating if one lamp fails, simplifying maintenance for facility managers.
- Lamp Striation Control (LSC): Technology specifically designed to minimize or eliminate swirling patterns in energy-saving T8 lamps.
- Universal Voltage (120-277V): One SKU for standardized inventory across multiple facility power configurations.
- NEMA Premium Compliant: Engineered to meet the highest efficiency standards for potential utility rebates.
- Compact Enclosure: Low-profile design (9.47"L x 1.69"W x 1.18"H) fits easily into standard T8 fixture housings.
