Technological Advantages of
Ballast & Igniter XENLIGHT
-
Safety:Full solution to high voltage risks (electrocution).
-
Automotive industry compliance: E.M.I, driving safety, electric system, manufacturing and more.
-
Costs: costs reduction in purchasing, installation, maintenance, adjusting to new car models.
-
Innovation: ballasts have strong patent protection since the ballasts use totally new methods to drive automotive HID bulbs out of low voltage DC as a unique outstanding principle.
| Feature | Advantage | Benefit | ||
|
The bulb is not connected directly to the high voltage output
(patented). |
Whether the ballast is on or off, if the bulb
is broken or not placed or the correct lamp power can not be
established, the ballast switched off like a dead unit without
any automatic self restart. If the ballast is restarted manually or by computer in the above conditions it turns itself off in less than 0.5sec. |
Completely safe – zero output voltage at any improper usage, or
collision Saves expenses on outside safety systems as in other ballasts. Safety maintenance. Protect the system from being damaged, saves expenses. |
||
|
The bulb is driven with a high frequency output, 14KHz
while igniting and 4.5KHz at normal operation,
Frequency is 10 times higher than others ballasts. |
Due to the HF skin effect the high frequency does not penetrate the human body | Reduce risk of electrocution. | ||
|
Low EMI (Electro Magnetic Interferences). Use of sinus wave and not square wave |
EMI suppression solved without the necessity for metal housing.
No disturbs to AM radio bands or short wave bands. No shielded HV cables are needed. |
Functions alongside auto computer systems as ABS, Cruise
control, etc’. Flexible auto electronic systems design. Saves expenses in designing, harnesses, solving EMI problems. |
||
|
Bidirectional remote control line operates and
control the ballast. |
On / off control, dimming, positive signal for bulb in
operation, interfacing to car’s computer, all with one single
wire. Hard reset after any improper usage. |
On/off by computer signal so no need for high current relay.
No need for differential relays to indicate whether lights are on or off. Saves expenses on circuitry design. |
||
| Use of plastic housing. |
Reduce the risk
of electrocution. |
Safer ballast. |
||
|
Dimming
option from 35W to 25W |
Future demand – when two cars towards each other an automatic
system should dim their lights. |
Saves future development and expenses as it can be monitored by the car computer. | ||
|
Self protect
mode breaks circuit during hi or lo voltage,
reverse polarity, or any improper usage |
Fewer ballasts breakdown. | Saves maintenance expenses. | ||
|
Very low inrush current at start up |
80% of output light within less than 4 sec, 3260 lumens. |
Meets automotive standards. Saves expenses on relays and thick cables for high current. |
||
|
Very high efficiency, close to 90%. |
Minimum loses, results in ΔT (temperature) of only 21°C. |
No metal housing is required to cool down the ballast,
implementation in any application. |
