Fluoractor® Fluorescent Lamp Starter Switch Y1112 - 2

THE FLUORACTOR Y1112 FLUORESCENT LAMP STARTER SWITCH 2 .. JUNE 1984 - REVISED SEPTEMBER 2002 Specifications are subject to change without notice. applications data The conventional method of starting fluorescent tubes employs the use of an electromechanical canister. This consists of a bimetallic strip which opens as it cools and in conjunction with the ballast inductor, provides the tube striking voltage. However, the random nature of the pulsing results in repeated striking attempts and degradation of both the tube and starter. The tube degradation is illustrated by its progressively...
