Abstract

Um Natriumdampflampen, insbesondere mit Xenon-Füllung, an Brennstellen für Quecksilberdampf-Hochdrucklampen betreiben zu können, wird ein Glimmzünder (16) vorgeschlagen, dessen Gehäuse (17) mit Neon, mit Neon und Argon oder mit Neon, Argon und einer Aktivierungssubstanz gefüllt ist, wobei der Fülldruck mindestens 35 mbar beträgt. Bei einem Glimmzünder, der ebenfalls mit Neon, mit Neon und Argon oder Neon, Argon und einer Aktivierungssubstanz gefüllt sein kann, wobei in sein Gehäuse (17) eine erste und zweite Elektrode (20, 22) ragen, die einen temperatursensitiven Schalter (15) bilden und wobei der Glimmzünder (16) seriell zu einer Induktivität (12) angeordnet ist, ist der Fülldruck derart zu bemessen, daß die in der Induktivität (12) entstehende Stoßspannung, die beim Öffnen des inneren temperatursensitiven Schalters (15) entsteht, höchstens 1200 V beträgt. Die Erfindung umfaßt auch eine Entladungslampe, in der ein erfindungsgemäßer Glimmzünder angeordnet ist.

Figure 00000001
In order to be able to operate sodium vapor lamps, in particular with xenon filling, at burning points for high-pressure mercury vapor lamps, a glow starter (16) is proposed, the housing (17) of which is filled with neon, with neon and argon or with neon, argon and an activation substance, the filling pressure is at least 35 mbar. In the case of a glow starter, which can also be filled with neon, with neon and argon or neon, argon and an activation substance, with first and second electrodes (20, 22) projecting into its housing (17), which have a temperature-sensitive switch (15) form and wherein the glow starter (16) is arranged in series with an inductor (12), the filling pressure must be dimensioned such that the surge voltage generated in the inductor (12), which arises when the inner temperature-sensitive switch (15) is opened, is at most 1200 V is. The invention also includes a discharge lamp in which a glow starter according to the invention is arranged.
