HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE BALLASTS

Encapsulated Core & CoilWhere quiet performance is required, the standard open core & coil bal-lasts are encapsulated (potted) in a cube-shaped steel can utilizingClass H (180°C) polyester compound. These ballasts carry a Class Anoise rating up through 175 watts and Class B for 250 and 400 watts.As with the open core & coil, the capacitor (and ignitor where included)are mounted separately within the fixture.Fluorescent Can (F-Can)For indoor commercial applications of HID lighting such as offices,schools and retail stores, ballast noise must be minimized. Ballasts forthese fixtures are most often encased and potted in fluorescent ballasttype cans and utilize Class A (90°C) asphalt insulating materials (thesame as used in fluorescent lamp ballasts).

The Advance line of F-can ballasts comes in two dual-voltage con-figurations: 120/277 volt for the US market, and 120/347 volt for theCanadian market. Each unit has built-in, automatically resetting, ther-mal protectors which disconnect the ballast from the power line in theevent of overheating. All units are high power factor and include thecapacitor within the can. All models for high pressure sodium, low-wattage metal halide, and pulse-start metal halide lamps also includethe ignitor in the can.Indoor EnclosedThese units are designed for use indoors where the ballast must bemounted remotely from the luminaire. They are most typically used infactories where the luminaire may be mounted in a high-bay where veryhigh ambient temperatures may be experienced. In these instances, theremotely-mounted ballast operates cooler, subsequently providinglonger life because it is away from both the heat of the ceiling ambientand lamp heat within the fixture.

The case contains the core & coil potted in a Class H (180°C) heat-dissipating resin. The capacitor(s) and ignitor are contained within aseparate compartment. Knockouts in both ends of the case facilitatehook-up in the most convenient manner. Wall mounting is accom-plished through flanges on the top and bottom of the case. The ballastis a UL Listed product.Outdoor WeatherproofWeatherproof ballasts are designed for remote, pole-mounting outdoorapplications under all weather conditions. They may also be placedinside of a transformer pole base, but care must be taken to avoid areasprone to flooding because weatherproof ballasts are not water-sub-mersible.

The core & coil with its capacitor and ignitor (where required) arefirmly mounted to the heat-sink base. An aluminum cover is placed overthe core-&-coil assembly and is bolted with a weather-tight gasket tothe base. An integral 1" threaded nipple with locknut facilities hook-upto electrical conduit or to the mounting bracket when used on a pole.The weatherproof ballast may also be placed nipple-up, with a drip loopin the leads, inside a pole base.PostlineLantern-type fixtures mounted on slender poles often require ballastswhich will fit into these poles. Special, elongated core & coil ballasts arepotted in resin in cylindrical cans having a 2.55" outside diameter. Allinclude leads necessary for direct connection to a photocell.

The capacitor and ignitor (where required) are included within thiscan. A 1/2" threaded nipple is used for vertical mounting, and leadsextend from both ends of the can for ease of installation. The inputleads to the ballast also provide for proper connection to the photocellif such is included within the fixture.

To help prevent overheating, one to three feet of air space should beallowed in the pole above the ballast, and the ballast should be posi-tioned against the post interior wall to provide a heat-sink. All unitsrated 100W and above now include a mounting kit consisting of an 18"chain to hang the ballast within the pole and a spring clip to force theballast's cylindrical can to make line contact with the pole's interiorsurface to maximize heat transfer, thus prolonging the ballast life.

Date CodeStamp

Alternate Positions forDate Stamp Code

ADVANCE 9 HID Core & Coil ballasts are date stamped on either the topsurface or the side surface of the ballast core. The four-digit number rep-resents the week and year of manufacture. The first two numbers indi-cate the week and the last two indicate the year the ballast was manu-factured. The example shows a ballast manufactured during the 36thweek of 1989. The three letters are an Advance factory code.The ballast's UL Bench Top Rise Temperature Code is shown on the label(see below).

UL BENCH TOP RISE TEMPERATURE CODETo facilitate UL inspection, each ballast's UL Bench Top RiseTemperature Code is shown on the Advance Core & Coil ballast label as1029X, where 1029 is the UL Standard for HID Ballasts, and the X is thetemperature code: A, B, C, etc. If a fixture is UL listed for 1029C, thenautomatically, all ballasts with an A, B, or C temperature classificationare acceptable for use within that same fixture.
