1) IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Read all of the following information carefully before operating the Dedolight
DEB1200D electronic ballast and DLH1200D daylight fixture.
This document contains important information regarding safety, operation and
maintenance of this system.
This equipment is intended for professional use and is to be used by trained
personnel only.
Keep the operating instructions with the equipment at all times.
The manufacturer is not responsible for damage caused by improper use or mishandling.
The DEB1200D electronic ballast and the DLH1200D light head are built in
accordance with CE and EMV-regulations EN 55015, EN 61547, EN61000-3-2
and -3, safety standards EN 60598-1, EN 60598-2-17, EN 60922, EN60350.
2) GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM
The compact DEB1200D electronic ballast is intended exclusively for use with the
Dedolight DLH1200D daylight light head.
The DEB1200D electronic ballast is equipped with active power factor correction. The
light head is to be used with a 800W daylight lamp which provides the highest possible
color rendition index RA > 92, and a color temperature of approximately 5600K.
The Dedolight DEB1200D electronic ballast offers the capability of dimming the
lamp, boosting the lamp or operating it with nominal power.
Further advantages of this electronic ballast in comparison to conventional ballasts
for daylight lamps:
- flicker free up to 10,000 frames/second*
- no camera synchronization necessary
- stable optimal color quality
- flicker factor < 2% rest ripple
- stable color temperature
- wide range of input voltages from 90-264V AC
- fluctuations of input voltage and input voltage frequency within the
above-mentioned limits have no influence on the emitted light
- over voltage cut off
- automatic fuse in the mains switch
- active power factor correction
