Product Overview
OSRAM SYLVANIA's QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency (QHE) series delivers up to 6% additional energy savings over standard T8 low-power electronic ballasts, without compromising light output, and offers maximum savings versus F40T12 magnetically ballasted systems.
Actual system lumens, mean lumens, wattage, and efficacy vary slightly depending on which OCTRON lamp is paired with this ballast; the figures above reflect the FO32/XP OCTRON SUPERSAVER pairing.
Compatible Applications
- Retrofitting existing 32W T8 (4ft, OCTRON) fluorescent fixtures with a High Efficiency electronic ballast
- Commercial, retail, and institutional lighting upgrades
- Energy-retrofit programs and utility rebate projects
- New construction specifying 32W T8 (4ft, OCTRON) fixtures
Before Ordering – Verify
- Confirm your fixture's line voltage matches 120-277V (Universal) before ordering — this ballast is not rated for other input voltage ranges.
- Verify lamp compatibility — this ballast is engineered for FO32/XP OCTRON SUPERSAVER (32W T8 (4ft, OCTRON)); Instant Start models in this family also operate FBO32, FBO31, FO25, FBO24, FO17, FBO16, FBO30/SS (30W), FBO29/SS (29W) lamps, and FO40T8.
- This is a ballast only — confirm you are also ordering compatible replacement lamps separately if needed.
