Magnetic and hybrid ballasts employ a copper coil wound on a magnetic core as their essential components, while electronic ballasts use solid state electronic circuitry to provide the proper operating electrical conditions to the connected lamps. Types of Ballast: There are mainly three types of ballasts: magnetic, electronic and hybrid. It is a complex circuit made up of many components to accomplish specific tasks. The device that does this is called a ballast. Supplying the power to create, drive, and sustain this arc reliably is no easy feat. High intensity discharge (HID) lighting, by definition, has high levels of electrical discharge, to create an electrical arc in the bulb, which emits light. The gHID has been rigorously tested and is now in service in a variety of applications worldwide, including parking lots, roadways, industrial facilities, retail and airports. It was also tested for safety and received UL Certification. In addition, it complies with all European EMC requirements. The gHID easily meets the most strenuous common FCC type standards without excessive reliance on and heating of filter components. This creates a brighter and whiter light output versus low-frequency electronic ballasts, saving up to 70% in energy to produce similar lighting. With 40 years experience in analog design and lighting applications, our engineering team designed this ballast with a very high frequency pure sign wave output to the lamp which is able to drive more energy in the light spectrum than lower frequency devices. Other popular energy savings lighting solutions require the entire fixture to be replaced and in many cases additional light fixtures are required to provide adequate light quality. The ballast is designed to fit in most existing high bay and outdoor light fixtures eliminating the need for additional infrastructure costs. This high quality of light produced by the gHID ballast allows the use of a much lower wattage lamp replacement which in turns saves the user 70% + in energy usage. The innovative design of the gHID ballast allows it to operate many brands and types of HID lamps, extend the rated life of the lamp by over 2 times its rated life, and provide a whiter, brighter light (Scotopic) than a standard magnetic ballast. The patented gHID solution, developed by Genesys Global, is transforming the global lighting landscape: it provides best-in-class energy efficiency savings for virtually any existing high intensity discharge (HID) infrastructure. Lumino Energy Solutions, in partnership with Genesys Global, provides revolutionary lighting solutions through an innovative energy efficiency technology, the gHID ballast. * The application is made in accordance with the project developed to comply with lighting requirements of each client.
