The starter contains a glow igniter 6, a resettable bimetallic switch 7 and an NTG resister 8 which are connected to one another in series. Parallel to the NTC resister 8 lies an ohmic resister 9 which is of considerably lower resistance than resister 8 in the temperature range of minus 20 DEG C to +80 DEG C and which ensures a fast preheating of the electrode coils of the lamp. In the event of the lamp failing to ignite, the bimetallic switch 7 latches open due to heat transmission thereto from resister 8, 9. The elements 6, 7, 8, 9 and a RFI suppressing capacitor 5 are all located in a housing with two external conductor pins (15), (16), (Fig 2), and a reset button for switch 7. <IMAGE> |
