Pulse-start Metal Halide Is Future of HID Lighting

摘要

Pulse-start metal halide ballast and lamp systems bring a wealth of benefits to users of high-intensity discharge (HID) lighting. Prior to the development of pulse-start systems, metal halide lighting delivered white light at the cost of operational inefficiencies. For this reason, lamp manufacturers sought to improve probe-start metal halide lighting by changing its chemistry and increasing the fill pressure in the lamp arc tube to increase lumen efficiency.
