Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electronic
- Electronic ballasts for fluorescent lamps are known since a fluorescent lamp cannot be lit and operated without increasing the mains voltage from usually 110 or 220 volts to an ignition voltage of approximately 1000 volts and increasing the mains frequency, which is usually at 50 or 60 Hertz, to approximately 30 kHz can. Compared to the
- the condenser and temperature switch have the known ones
- electronic ballasts have the advantage that they are connected to a preheating circuit which, in addition to increasing the ignition voltage, previously warming the electrodes or incandescent filament of the fluorescent lamp in such a way that the electron exit occurs before the conventional glow discharge to ignite the lamp which
- Fluorescent lamp is gentle and therefore a longer one
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing an electronic circuit for preheating the electrodes in a fluorescent lamp, by means of which the lamp is reliably started and unnecessary power consumption is avoided after the latter has been ignited.
- Fig. 1 shows a circuit of a conventional electronic ballast
- Fig. 2 shows a circuit according to the invention.
- ballast EVG 1 shows a conventional circuit of an electronic ballast EVG 1 , the input voltage of which, depending on the network, is 110 or 220 volts at 50 or 60 hertz. At the output "out" of the ballast EVG 1 is
- a fluorescence larape FL is connected to the output circuit of the ballast EVG 1 , each with a connection of two electrodes with incandescent filaments W 1 and W 2 .
- Connections of the filament W 1 and W 2 are connected to one another via the two capacitors C 2 and C 3 and a temperature-dependent resistor PTC.
- the PTC 1 resistor When the ballast EVG 1 is switched on, the PTC 1 resistor is generally cold and therefore low-resistance. The capacitor C 2 is therefore practically short-circuited. In order to prevent the voltage between the incandescent filaments W 1 and W 2 from being high enough in this switching state to cause a glow discharge to occur in the fluorescent lamp FL, the capacitor C 3 must have a corresponding capacitance, typically 6 nF. In this switching state, a cancellation of flows through the output circuit of the electronic ballast EVG 1
- the resistor PTC 1 becomes high-resistance, which leads to the voltage between the incandescent filaments W 1 and W 2 rising to approximately 1000 V in such a way that the fluorescent lamp FL ignites without a glow discharge.
- the voltage between the incandescent filaments W 1 and W 2 collapses to a burning voltage of typically approximately 100 V.
- the two capacitors C and C 3 and the resistor PTC 1 are not, however, by the output circuit of the ballast EVG 1 , respectively. separated from the incandescent filament circuit, such that the resistor PTC 1 continues to consume current in the order of magnitude of approximately 0.5 W, which heats it up and keeps it high-impedance.
- the ignited fluorescent lamp FL flows in the noble gas between the filaments W 1 and W 2 , the voltage between the filaments W 1 and W 2 increases due to the fact that the cold resistor PTC 22 at this time is cold
- Fluorescent lamp FL of typically 100 V together, which means that there is no more current from the "+" output of the ballast EVG 11 via the thermal resistor PTC 22 and the
- Capacitor C 32 fHessen This circuit part is at therefore, the lit fluorescent lamp FL is dead and no longer consumes electricity.
- circuit components are suitable to guarantee clean and safe ignition of the fluorescent lamp FL:
- PTC 22 Siemens PTC C890 265V
- Fluorescent lamp FL takes place under a more or less constant voltage. This not only has the advantage of an overall lower power consumption of a suitably equipped fluorescent lamp, but also increases the number of possible on and off cycles of the lamp.
- circuit according to the invention can be adapted to special conditions and lamp characteristics by selecting the components used differently than mentioned above. Under certain circumstances, in order to compensate for the effects of the filaments W 1 and W 2
- the electronic ballast EVG 11 can with respect to the mains voltage and frequency as well as the necessary for operating the lamp assigned to it
