Daylight Harvest Lighting Ballast


Reduce Your Lighting Energy Cost Up To 75%

Buildings with over-lit areas or daylight from windows or skylights can waste up to 75% of fluorescent lighting energy cost.

  • BALLAST CUTS COST UP TO 75%
    WITH SAME LIGHTING QUALITY.

  • Each Axis ballast can be individually set for up to 60% dimming.
  • Each ballast has its own daylight harvesting “ceiling poke-through” sensor to reduce power equal to lighting provided by daylight.
  • Sensors in each fixture maintain
    uniform lighting.
  • Payback is as short as 24 months.

Sensor Characteristics

  • Each Axis ballast includes daylight sensor and dimming switch.
  • “Poke-through” sensor is almost flush with ceiling and unnoticeable.
  • Sensor detects and responds to outside light in its own space to maximize energy savings.

Performance

  • Each fixture maximizes savings based on proximity to outside light.
  • Sensor system assures light levels are maintained during the day.

Model Types And Installation

  • Axis rapid-start ballasts are available in 2, 3 or 4 lamp models.
  • Installation time is similar to installing a conventional ballast.
  • The sensor adds only a couple of minutes installation per fixture.
  • There is no need for expensive separate controls or long wiring runs.

Power And Lighting Quality

  • Lamps operate with no visible flicker at all levels of savings.
  • Power factor is greater than 98% to enhance power quality.
  • Input current Total Harmonic Distortion will not exceed 10%.
