By such an approach, on the one hand, not inconsiderable continuous heating powers occur in the electrodes, which adversely affects the efficiency of the entire system including the circuit arrangement and the gas discharge lamps. On the other hand, several heating coils - three additional heating coils are usually used in a series connection of two gas discharge lamps - consuming to wrap, lead and isolate. In particular, the isolation of many additional heating coils is costly.

  • the ratio of the current of the Dauerterrorismstroms to the current of the preheating, or the ratio of the Treasureroniados to preheating reduced.
  • This reduction is attributable to the fact that the current intensity of the current flowing via the "outer" electrodes of the gas discharge lamps or via the resonance capacitor is determined directly by the amplitude of the voltage applied to the resonance capacitor.
  • circuit arrangement according to the invention it is possible with the circuit arrangement according to the invention to reliably preheat the outer electrodes of the gas discharge lamps; On the other hand, the circuit arrangement according to the invention results in significantly reduced losses in continuous operation.

  • the first and the second capacitor each have a capacitance value from a value range of 10 pF to 5 nF, preferably from a value range of 100 pF to 2.5 nF. Then, the above requirements regarding the voltages at the gas discharge lamps are satisfied.
  • the capacitance value of the first capacitor may be 1 nF and the capacitance value of the second capacitor 560 pF and the capacitance value of the resonant capacitor 10 may be nF.
  • the capacitance value of the first capacitor preferably differs from the capacitance value of the second capacitor.
  • the gas discharge lamps are ignited sequentially, that is, one after the other.
  • the first breaks Voltage to a first of the gas discharge lamps, which has an immediate increase in the voltage across the other gas discharge lamp and thereby the ignition of this gas discharge lamp result.
  • the ratio of the capacitance values of the two capacitors is preferably in a value range of 0.5 to 0.8. For example, this ratio may be 2/3.
  • the present circuit arrangement comes with only a single additional winding at the resonance choke (provided that two gas discharge lamps are operated).
  • the resonance choke as a component can thus in comparison to the prior art be made much easier and cheaper; the additional winding can be isolated from the main winding of the resonance choke without much effort.

  • the first terminal 11a of the second terminal pair 11 of the second terminal arrangement is connected via the second coupling capacitor 18 to the reference potential 4 of the control unit.

In this way, the outer electrodes of the gas discharge lamps 6, 7 with relatively high currents - the current strength of the current flowing through the resonant capacitor 13 current is determined by the amplitude of the voltage - acted upon and thereby reliably preheated.
  • the ratio of the current intensity of the continuous heating current flowing in operation via the outer electrodes to the current intensity of the preheating current flowing through the resonance capacitor 13 during the preheating phase is reduced by the use of the capacitive voltage divider 16. So also reduces the ratio of the continuous heating power to the preheating. In other words, the current strength of the Treasureitesstroms can be reduced and thereby lower Treasurefilpositione be achieved. These losses can be further reduced by means of the throttles 19, 20.
  • the frequency of the AC supply voltage U V is lowered so that the gas discharge lamps 6, 7 ignite. Due to the different capacitance values of the capacitors 16a, 16b, the ignition of the gas discharge lamps 6, 7 takes place sequentially. This means that the gas discharge lamps 6, 7 are ignited one after the other.
  • a circuit arrangement 1 which enables reliable preheating of electrodes of a series connection of at least two gas discharge lamps 6, 7.
  • the circuit arrangement 1 comes without additional cost-intensive and technically complex preheating circuits; It can be produced inexpensively and reduced component.
  • Reliable preheating of the electrodes is ensured by a capacitive voltage divider 16 including first and second capacitors 16a, 16b. It is unnecessary to use a plurality of additional windings on the resonance choke 12, it is sufficient only an additional winding 14, which can be wound without much effort and with a few turns.
