Electronic ballast QTP5 1X80W, 220-240V 4008321329059

Electronic ballast for T5 fluorescent lamps – reliable power supply and efficiency

This QTP5 1x80W electronic ballast, manufactured by the renowned company Osram (Ledvance), is a key element of fluorescent lighting installations. It provides stable and efficient power to one 80W T5 linear fluorescent lamp, which translates to a long lamp life and optimal light parameters. It is an ideal solution for both professionals and end-users looking for a reliable component for lighting.

Construction and application

The ballast is designed to work with T5 fluorescent lamps with a diameter of 16mm and a G5 base. Its metal housing ensures durability and resistance to mechanical damage. Protection class I guarantees safe use, and protection degree IP20 protects against accidental contact. The device operates at a voltage of 220-240V, making it compatible with most electrical installations. Installation is simple and intuitive – the ballast does not require the use of starters, and the connection to fluorescent lamp holders is done directly using quick connectors. It is worth remembering to protect against moisture during installation.

Advantages of use

• Energy efficiency: Electronic ballasts, compared to traditional ones, are characterized by higher energy efficiency, which translates to lower operating costs.
• Long lifespan: Stable power supply provided by the ballast extends the lifespan of the T5 fluorescent lamp.
• No flickering: Eliminates the flickering effect of light, which improves comfort and reduces eye strain.
• Quiet operation: The lack of mechanical elements means that the ballast operates silently.
• Safety: Protection class I and a solid housing ensure safe use of the device.
• Easy installation: Quick connectors make the installation process easier and faster.
• Compatibility: Designed for popular 80W T5 fluorescent lamps with a G5 base - wide availability of replacements.

Technical parameters in practice

Rated voltage 220-240V and frequency 50-60Hz make the ballast universal and can be used in various electrical systems. Power factor cos φ at 0.98 minimizes energy losses in the electrical network. The rated maximum housing temperature (Tc) is +75°C, and the rated maximum ambient temperature (Ta) is in the range of -20°C ÷ +50°C – which ensures reliable operation over a wide temperature range. The possibility of connecting wires with a cross-section of 0.5 - 1.0mm² guarantees proper adaptation to the electrical installation.
