Technical Details – Components for Discharge Lamps
Programmed cut-out function of VS ignitors
1
2
Ignitors with automatic cut-out – A series
After connection to mains voltage, A series ignitors supply a continuous stream of ignition voltage pulses
until the lamp has ignited or the predefined cut-out time (sum of all ignition periods) has been reached if
the lamp fails to ignite.
