ELECTRONIC START-UP DEVICE FOR FEEDING AMALGAM LAMPS
The article describes the devices of electronic start-up control apparatuses for feeding amalgam bactericidal lamps of various series. Technical and electrical characteristics are given, and single and group designs of electronic controlled starting and cooling devices are described. The types of wires in the types of connections of various designs of electronic start-up devices that supply lamps with a highly stable sinusoidal current with a frequency of 43 – 50 kHz are presented. Providing heating of the electrodes before starting the set current, “lighting” of lamps and with high accuracy supporting the discharge current of lamps with fluctuations in the phase voltage of the network from 180 to 250 V, providing all types of protection in normal and abnormal operating modes.
