Leveraging a worldwide network of R&D know-how and manufacturing capabilities, our Electronic Control Systems Division positions SYLVANIA as market leader in electronic ballasts. While our ballasts are compatible with lamps from all major lamp manufacturers, SYLVANIA also leads the market in offering “System Solutions”. We create specifically matched Sylvania lamp and ballast combinations that offer powerful benefits including maximized energy savings, reduced maintenance costs and unprecedented flexibility.
Main Segments:
QUICKTRONIC®
High quality products for most general applications – i.e. T8 Instant Start <20% THD Products.
QUICKTRONIC® Professional
Professional Series products incorporate one or more value added features such as <10%THD, PROStart® Programmed Rapid Start, Universal Voltage and QUICKSENSE® end-of–lamp-life sensing.
QUICKTRONIC® High Efficiency
High Efficiency Series products are energy-saving electronic T8 ballasts that save additional 6% (2 to 7 watts) over standard electronic ballasts. Features also include <10 THD and Universal Voltage. SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC® High Efficiency
(QHE) ballast operate OCTRON® T8 lamps with maximum efficacy and high lumen
output, and provides 30-50% energy savings when compared to F40T12 magnetic systems.
■ High Efficiency Systems over 90% efficient
■ Over 100 LPW (lumens/watt) with OCTRON® SUPERSAVER® lamps
■ Lowest power T8 Instant Start Systems

Features:
Universal Voltage
Universal voltage models operate from 120- 277 Volts, eliminating “incorrect line voltage” wiring errors and reducing the number of models in inventory by half.
PROStart®
A programmed rapid starting method for fluorescent lamps that achieves up to 100,000 switching cycles which allows for increased use on occupancy sensors.
MULTIWATT
New electronic ballasts that offer the versatility to operate multiple lamp types of various wattages. These multi-watt and multi-lamp models also can vary the number of lamp operated (i.e. 1 or 2 lamps), reducing the amount of ballast types required.
QUICKSENSE®
The patented end-of-lamp-life sensing technology that helps prevent lamp overheating and established the benchmark or industry recommendations for T5 and smaller diameter lamps.
HVIC Microprocessor
High voltage integrated circuits that provide added control features and improve reliability.
