Thisapproach also allows up to 22 ftcenter-to-center spacing whilestill satisfying the requirementsof the Life Safety Code.High PRIorityNew legislation mandatingthe illumination of paths ofegress outside of buildings hasprompted a need for exteriorluminaires that have emergencybattery packs that canfunction in cold temperatures.Last year, the committee acceptedthe Bodine Cold-Paklow temperature emergencyballast. This year, McGraw-Edison, a Cooper LightingCompany, has designed theirVXS Vision Area Small productto accept this emergency ballast.In addition, McGraw-Edisonoffers the Bodine Cold-Pak intheir new X-Form Area Luminaire.The X-Form is also IP65rated and uses a wide range ofsources including HID, highoutput compact fluorescentsand induction lamps.The Hyperion with Opt X is anew series of bollards from LSIGreenlee Lighting that uses aunique reflector design. Opt Xuses a technique called ConstructiveOcculsion, or Cavityand Fan construction, to providesuperior uniformity toconventional bollards, even on30-ft centers. Hyperion’s photometricpunch is deliveredthrough the smallest aperturein the industry at 1.167 incheswide reducing glare and providingvandal resistance.The gaslight-style fixture hasnow been upgraded withPennsylvania Globe Gaslight’snew fully adjustable Penntrollanterns. These fixtures offershort to medium throws andfull cutoff to semi-cutoff distributions.The full cutoff fixture isthe first gaslight-style fixture toaddress Dark Sky requirements.The fixtures are availablewith high-pressure sodium,metal halide and compactfluorescent lamps.The EXM model of the X-Form can use two 70-W compactfluorescents that wereintroduced last year.FOr your EyeS ONly. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Unlike existingproducts that rely on air circulation,the RTL filter directs IRenergy away from the lens, significantlyreducing lens surfacetemperature. The filter operatesin a sealed fixture, eliminatingthe problem of photometricsbeing affected overtime due to the ingress of dirtor water with open fixtures.The 400-W electronic HIDballast introduced by Holophanelast year has been usedin two hanger areas of AlaskaAirlines. The Prismatron ballastwas combined with the new400-W ceramic metal halidelamp from GE to provide highcolor rendering illumination. Atotal of 98,000 sq ft of spacewas illuminated, and is projectedto save $16,000 per year inenergy costs.The Quicktronic high-efficiencyT8 electronic ballastfrom OSRAM SYLVANIAoffers greater than 90 percentballast efficiency and a universalinput voltage. It is packagedin an industry standard smallcanenclosure and is rated tostart lamps at 0 degree F. It isclaimed to save an additionalfour to six percent in energycompared to standard instantstart ballasts.The OSRAM SYLVANIAProfessional Prostart ballast forT5 HO is also available in alower voltage range of 120 to277 volts. This ballast can operatefrom one to four lamps andcan be switched to changeoperation between four tothree, three to two, three toone, or two to one lamps.The Utica CommunitySchool System utilizes the eightlamp T5HO fixture byParamount Industries acceptedin this year’s Report. This applicationis a gymnasium whereboth the requirement of morelight than the current 400-WHPS high bay fixtures, and theflexibility of different light levelscould be addressed by thisnew fluorescent troffer configuration.The UltraMax electronic ballastfrom GE Lighting operatesup to four T8 lamps of 2, 3, or4-ft lengths. The family has ballastfactors of 0.77, 0.87 or1.15 and is capable of handlingmultiple nominal input voltagesof 120 to 277 volts. Otherfeatures that combine to makethis ballast unique include ULType CC anti-arc rating, antistriationcontrol, active currentregulation and an LCCF of1.40.OSRAM SYLVANIA offersthe Quickronic ProfessionalSeries Prostart ballast for T5HO in a version that accepts anominal 347 to 480 volt input.The ballast drives one or two54-W, T5 HO lamps and has amaximum case temperaturerated at 90 degree C for highambient applications.Advance Transformer hasintroduced the ICN-4S54-90C-2LS ballast for one, two, threeor four 54-W, T5 HO lamps.The ballast includes Intellivolttechnology, which allows it tooperate at any nominal voltagebetween 120 and 277. It willalso operate 36, 39, 50 and 55-W twin-tube lamps and theF58T8 source.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . www.iesna.org . . . . . . . . 55. . LD+A . . .
