Digital HIDTM (DHIDTM), Industry’s Most Green Lighting Upgrade Solution

Manufacturing Industry leaders TRW Automotive, H.J. Heinz Company, McCain Foods Ltd., and PSION Inc.,

all benefit from Digital High-Intensity Discharge (DHIDTM

) energy efficient lighting solutions today.

DHIDTM

ballast lighting technology is leading Industry’s energy efficient

lighting evolution with a solution to lighting upgrades which is cost-

effective, high-performing and the most responsible for the environment.

Accendo Electronics Limited, a Canada and United States based lighting

manufacturer, is a champion for the economy and the environment and is

innovating with the World’s most robust lighting solutions for Industry.

Their new GloGreen Series DHIDTM

retrofit ballasts and lighting fixtures

offer many value added benefits on the upgrade of any outdoor or indoor

lighting application. The retrofit upgrade is a simple solution which

reduces lighting expenses by forty percent to seventy five percent or more, and produces very little waste since

existing lighting fixtures can be re-used.

It is a known fact that Industry can realize significant money savings by simply upgrading old lighting systems

with new more energy efficient lighting; but of greater importance is the reduction in greenhouse gases emitted

into the atmosphere as a result. By drastically reducing the electricity demanded from the power utilities by

Municipalities and Industries, a substantial impact can be had on the reduction of CO2 emissions released, and

on Industry’s carbon footprint as a whole. Add the option for the responsible reuse of the existing lighting

system fixture, and project costs can be further reduced while putting even less of an effect on the environment.

The environment wins and your project wins considering DHIDTM

lighting offers the perfect balance of buying

cost, performance and low operating/consumable costs over the long term for a favorably short return on

investment time.

High-Intensity Discharge (HID) bulb lighting is a trusted technology; it has been in use around the World for

decades and today remains the most widely used type of high-power lighting for outdoor and indoor purposes

such as street/parking lot lighting, factory or retail/warehouse lighting, automobile dealership,

greenhouse/hydroponics and arena/stadium lighting for example. To power the HID bulb, traditionally a core

and coil (magnetic) ballast is used. By simply retrofitting an energy efficient DHIDTM

ballast in place of the less

efficient magnetic ballast, an instant forty percent plus (40%+) energy savings is possible; e.g. if the existing

magnetic ballast light fixture uses a four hundred Watt (400W) power ballast and 400W lamp, and the new

GloGreen ballast using two hundred fifty Watts (250W) is installed in-place with a 250W lamp, the customer

can now expect longer lasting light quality with over 40% savings in electricity, and all for a fraction of the cost

and waste of purchasing a new fixture. Adding dimming to the same application yields even greater energy

savings.

The DHIDTM

retrofit ballast brings new life

to HID bulb systems including the benefits

of extended lamp life, increased lumen

output, instant-dimming, quick ignition/re-

strike times and Automatic or pre-

programmed schedule dimming capabilities

for maximized energy savings and lamp life.

A breakthrough innovation is the guarantee

that a HID lamp powered by a DHIDTM

ballast will not visibly degrade over its entire

lifetime. Older magnetic ballast powered

HID lamp systems are known for their rapid degradation or premature dimming in as little as six months or five

thousand hours; this is no longer the case with DHIDTM

since the customer can now expect forty to fifty

thousand hours (40,000hrs. to 50,000hrs.), and beyond life from the same lamp while suffering no more than a

five to ten percent drop in light quality and output right up to the end of the lamps life.

“Accendo GloGreen Digital

HIDTM

ballasts offer unparalleled

electrical efficiency and

performance compared to

conventional magnetic ballasts,”

states Les Poroszlay, Accendo’s

Director of Technology; “Accendo

DHIDTM

lighting offers the most

cost-effective, value-added

alternative to LED, fluorescent

and induction based technologies

for new and retrofit industrial and

commercial Green lighting

projects.”
