New from Venture Lighting,
the Ventronic Global
electronic dimming ballast
combines energy savings with total
system control, using DALI digital
dimming, simple switch dimming or
1-10V variable dimming. The ballast
is reported to have exceptionally low
energy consumption and a power
factor close to unity, providing low
current load, and supports lamp
dimming up to 70% total energy cost
saving.

As well as reducing energy
consumption, Ventronic ballasts are
‘lamp friendly’, facilitating fast
strike/re-strike times while also
helping to extend lamp life and
therefore reducing cost of ownership.

Thanks to an integral safety network
circuit, they are also highly resilient
to voltage spikes and fluctuations, as
well as protection against
erroneously high temperatures.

Used with Venture’s Pulse Start
metal halide lamps, the lamp life is
typically 30,000 hours, with a light
output of up to 110lm/W and lumen
maintenance of 90% through the life
of the lamp.
