Luminous Tube Length Chart for Neon/Cold-Cathode Dimming Applications
Notes:
■
X denotes this combination cannot be successfully dimmed.
■
Tube length is shown in feet. To convert to meters, 1ft. = 0.305 m.
■
If using a center-tap on a center-tapped transformer, the
secondary voltage will be reduced by half.
Warning!
This chart has been calculated for dimming
purposes and must not be used for non-dimming
installations.
Danger!
Potentially hazardous high voltage can be
present. Testing, handling, and servicing should be done
only by qualified personnel.
TRANSFORMER
Total Lamp Length = (8 Lamps X 4 ft) + (8 Lamps X 1 ft for each pair of electrodes) = 40 ft.
A 12000V, 60mA, 720VA transformer should be used (Capable of dimming 41 ft.)
* Each pair of electrodes equals one foot of tube. Example application = 8 red neon, 4 foot long, 18 mm dia., 60 mA lamps
