DIGITAL HID, INDUSTRY’S MOST GREEN LIGHTING UPGRADE SOLUTION

Digital High-Intensity Discharge (DHID) 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 DHID 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 fifty

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 DHID 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 lighting, factory or retail/warehouse lighting, 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 a DHID ballast in place of the less efficient magnetic

ballast, an instant fifty percent plus energy savings is possible; e.g. if the existing magnetic ballast light

fixture uses a four hundred Watt power ballast/bulb and the new GloGreen ballast using two hundred

Watts is installed in-place with a two-hundred Watt bulb, the customer can now expect longer lasting

light quality with over fifty percent savings in electricity, and all for a fraction of the cost and waste of

purchasing a new fixture.

The DHID 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 bulb powered by a DHID ballast will not visibly

degrade over its entire lifetime. Magnetic ballast powered HID bulbs 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 DHID since the customer can expect thirty to forty thousand hours and beyond life from

the same bulb while suffering no more than a five percent drop in light quality and output right up to

the end of the bulb’s extended life.

Accendo GloGreen Series Digital HID ballasts offer unparalleled electrical efficiency and performance

compared to conventional core and coil (magnetic) ballasts. DHID 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.
