Venture Lighting Europe has
launched ePOD, a control gear
capsule designed for mounting
above the luminaire, eliminating
the need for a traditional high-bay
housing. Utilising Venture’s
Ventronic control gear, the e-
POD is suspended vertically
on top of the luminaire, to
provide a streamlined effect.

It is suitable for areas where
there is limited or no fixing space for
separate control gear units. It
incorporates Venture’s electronic
ballast for high wattage HID light
sources that allows optimum energy
efficiency through daylight linking,
timer, or occupancy sensor, as well as
advanced features that improve
economy, performance and lamp life
The company says that with
Ventronic, users of HID lighting can
achieve the energy saving and
performance benefits previously
associated with fluorescent
lighting.Ventronic is lightweight
and silent, has no startup
current and is encapsulated within
a thermally designed convective casing.
