System Supplier

At OSRAM, new lamps are developed mainly in accordance with their ballasts (Electronic Control Gear, ECG).
An aligned system ensures a smooth operation for a long-term customer satisfaction.

We emphasize in particular:

• Cut-Off-Technology (Switch-off of filament heating) for highest possible energy efficiency of T5/16 mm-lamps
• Perfect dimming due to optimized heating of the electrodes
• Secure system shut-down in case of lamp failure (EoL)

Technology

Due to the physical principle of gas discharge, fluorescent lamps cannot be operated directly on a mains voltage system.
