Application Information
QUICKTRONIC CF ballasts are ideally suited for:
- Recessed downlights
- Wall sconces
- Ceiling fixtures
- Commercial
- Retail, hospitality, institutional
- Occupancy sensors
- Daylight harvesting
- Energy management
- Load shedding
QUICKTRONIC HELIOS CF dual entry dimming ballasts operate DULUX® D/E and T/E
lamps with full lumen output and optimal system performance over a wide
dimming range (100% to 3%).
This ballast features one mounting style of low profile, lightweight
enclosures to provide simple assembly for any fixture application.
Universal input voltage (120–277V) and multi-lamp multi-watt capability allow
for fewer SKUs to support a wide range of applications.
Dual entry, color coded, wire trap connectors located on the side and bottom
allow for increased mounting flexibility with one ballast and also increased
ease of installation.
System Information
QUICKTRONIC HELIOS ballasts operate standard low voltage (0-10VDC) controllers
making them ideal for applications such as daylight harvesting or building
automation applications where standard low voltage devices (0-10VDC, Class 1
or 2) are used to control the lighting system.
PROStart programmed rapid start is the optimum starting method, providing up
to 100,000 switching cycles for use on occupancy sensors and building control
systems. QUICKSENSE® end-of-lamp-life sensing technology helps to protect
against overheated bases and sockets, as well as cracking of the glass wall.
QUICKSENSE ballast technology uses dynamic end-of-lamp-life sensing to avoid
false shutdowns caused by some static sensing methods and will auto-reset when
the end-of-life lamps are replaced with new ones

WARNING:
Install and wire these ballast and controls in accordance with the National
Electrical Code (NEC), all applicable Federal, State and local electrical
codes, as well as the specific instructions provided with the 0-10Vdc
compatible control that you purchased. Installation should be performed by
qualified personnel only.
These instructions are guidelines only. Installation may vary for different
controls/fixtures/ applications. Be sure to follow the control instructions
and all applicable codes and standards when installing dimming systems.
Please contact controls manufacturer listed in the controls cross reference
for compatible controls and instruction wiring
NOTE: HELIOS Dimming ballasts source < 0.5mA (0-10VDC control input)
