SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC High Efficiency
POWERSENSE T5 electronic ballasts offer
several advantages:
•
Wide Dimming Range: operate linear
fluorescent T5 PENTRON lamps over
a 100-1% dimming range and provide
true versatility in controls selection.
•
Industry’s Most Adaptable Dimming
Ballast: ballasts feature micro-controller
technology for compatibility with:
• low voltage controls
• power line fluorescent dimmers
• any line voltage from 120V to 277V
•
Unmatched Performance with
Patented Lamp Detection Technology:
• Eliminates variations in brightness
from lamp-to-lamp
• Provides uniform lighting throughout
the dimming range
• Eases installation and trouble-
shooting by recognizing failed
lamps, faulty wiring or loose
connections and shutting down.
When the problem is corrected,
the system restarts automatically.

Key System Features
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC
POWERSENSE ballasts
are ideally suited for:
• Occupancy sensors
• Daylight harvesting
• Energy management
• Load shedding
• Commercial
• Retail
• Hospitality
• Institutional
• Schools
• New construction
• Retrofit
Application Information
QUICKTRONIC POWERSENSE ballasts operate
from standard low voltage (0-10VDC)
fluorescent controllers or compatible 2-wire
power line fluorescent dimmers, making
them ideal for individual office lighting or
automated building applications, both in
new construction and retrofit projects.
For the individual office or conference room,
installation can be streamlined by using a
2-wire power line dimmer; eliminating the
need for additional control wires.
For more advanced systems, such as
daylight harvesting or building automation
applications, standard low voltage devices
(0-10VDC, Class 1 or 2) are used to
control the lighting system. In this daylight
harvesting example, each lighting fixture
(or fixture row) is controlled by it’s own
photosensor; regulating the light output
to compensate for changes in natural
daylight. Depending upon the specific
application, energy savings of up to 60%
compared to fixed output electronic
systems can be realized.
All QUICKTRONIC
POWERSENSE ballasts
include a line voltage
protection circuit, which
protects the ballast in
the event that line voltage
is inadvertently applied
to the low voltage
control inputs.
