Ballast arrangement for operating gas discharge lamps, has electronic ballast modules exhibiting respective generator drivers, controllable by perfluorocarbon-component, and control units for controlling component and respective drivers

摘要

The arrangement has a perfluorocarbon (PFC) component for controlled power output from a main power supply. Electronic ballast modules exhibit respective generator drivers, controllable by the PFC component, and control units (ST) for controlling the PFC component and the respective generator drivers. The modules are connected to each other, and one of the modules is connected with the common PFC component over its interface.
