CCFL panel series

Picture
Cold cathode  fluorescent tubes operate at a much higher voltage and lower current
than  conventional fluorescent lamps. The higher voltage overcomes the need to
heat  the tube while the lower arc current greatly extends the life of the discharge  electrodes.
Dispensing with the wasteful heated electrodes allows
high  efficiency to be achieved in a small lamp. Cold cathode lamps are
typically ten  to 30 percent more efficient than a comparable hot cathode fluorescent lamp.
Cold cathode lights have a life expectancy more than twice that  of typical compact fluorescent lamps and do not suffer accelerated degradation  with variations in supply voltage.


DIMMABILITY
Dimming represents one of the most effective ways to  reduce power consumption. While a
bright light is required for some activities  there are often occasions where a
much lower lighting level would be sufficient  or desirable.
Cold cathode lamps can be dimmed to any point  without damage. Without the need for precise electrode temperature the cold
cathode lamp can be operated at any desired brightness up to their maximum rating. They can even be continuously operated in flashing applications that
would destroy a conventional fluorescent lamp in a day.
Econ  Lighting’s cold cathode lamps are fully dimmable by reducing the input voltage
with a simple adjustable resistor. Although there are some losses involved in using a resistive controller they are kept to a minimum because the current
diminishes quite rapidly as the voltage declines.

COMPATIBILITY
Our cold cathode lamps are designed to replace a standard T8 and T5 lamp tube. Our  CCFL lamp diameter is only 0.34cm compared with T5 at 1.59cm and T8 at  2.54cm.The addition of power saving dimmability and the extended tube life makes them excellent value for money.
