Why Pulse Start Metal Halide?
A change in the lamp and ballast construction allows pulse start metal halide bulbs to start using a high voltage igniter in the ballast instead of a starting electrode in the bulb. The result is a system that produces a white light and challenges HPS's long lamp life, high lumen output and quick starting capabilities.
- Longer Light Bulb Life
- Increased Lumen Maintenance
- Better Color Shift
- Better Color Rendition to HPS
- Better Lamp to Lamp Color Consistency
- Faster Re-Strike Time
- Colder Starting Temperature
- Less Blackening of the arc tube
A pulse start system needs a dedicated ballast that has an igniter. This
eliminates the need for the starting probe and bi-metal switch in the bulb.
There are many designs of pulse start ballasts. The Pulse Start ballast must match the electrical requirements of each specific Pulse Start Lamp. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has applied certain identification codes to each pulse start ballast and lamp.
