Description
The E232T8IS120/N/AS is an electronic instant start ballast designed for operating one or two T8 fluorescent or compatible LED lamps. Running on 120V input, it features parallel lamp operation and delivers high energy efficiency with a power factor of up to 0.98. This ballast supports a wide range of lamp types, including F17T8, F25T8, F32T8, and F40T8, and performs reliably in temperatures as low as -18°C. With Class P thermal protection, low total harmonic distortion, and a compact form factor, it’s ideal for commercial and residential retrofit applications where long burn hours and minimal switching are expected.
Features
- Instant Start Technology: Provides quick lamp ignition without preheating, improving energy efficiency and reducing power consumption.
- Parallel Lamp Operation: Operates 1 or 2 T8 fluorescent or compatible LED lamps independently—if one lamp fails, the other stays lit.
- Wide Lamp Compatibility: Supports F17T8, F25T8, F28T8/ES, F30T8/ES, F32T8, and F40T8 lamps.
- High Power Factor: Rated up to 0.98, ensuring efficient energy use and reduced electrical losses.
- Low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): Typically between 10–15%, promoting stable and clean operation.
- Cold Start Capability: Operates reliably in temperatures as low as -18°C, making it suitable for unheated or outdoor environments.
- Thermal Protection: Class P thermal cutoff with a max case temperature of 75°C for added safety and longevity.
- Compact Design: Fits standard 8-29/32" mounting, ideal for retrofit and new installations.
- Certifications: cULus listed and Energy Star compliant.
- Warranty: Backed by a 5-year manufacturer’s warranty for peace of mind.
