WHY USE AN EONSTM PRODUCT?
The core feature and benefit story of using an EONS product is the ability to double or triple lamp life, in turn significantly increasing time between required relamping and reducing maintenance costs compared to traditional single lamp products. There are however several other unique system advantages that an EONS product offers as detailed below.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS
-
Two or three lamp system
- double or triple the rated lamp life of the product
- double or triple the time between required lamp maintenance
- reduced maintenance equals significant cost savings (see the EONS Maintenance Calculator for details)
-
Uses traditional EISA compliant Pulse Start Metal Halide & High Pressure Sodium lamp technology
- time tested and proven performance for 'ease of mind'
- fraction of the initial costs compared to other extended lamp life solutions (versus LED or Induction)
- low lamp material replacement costs compared to LED (replace fixture) and Induction (10X or higher)
-
Instant HID restrike (IHR) without the use of secondary equipment
- second and/or third lamp is in standby mode in case of momentary power loss
- no need to wait for the primary lamp to cool down before restriking (can be as long as 15 minutes)
- reaches approximately 10% of full light output after 20 seconds, 50% after 30 seconds
EONSTM Instant HID Restrike (IHR)
-
Concurrent aging of the lamps
- reduces the rate of lamp lumen depreciation vs. a single lamp system
- results in higher maintained illuminance levels over the life of the system
-
Precision engineered optical assemblies
- without high performance optics, a multi-lamp solution would not be possible
- on center spacing and average light levels remain relatively unchanged
- uniformity levels are within recommended IESNA guidelines
-
EONS products are also available with optional electronic ballasts (see spec sheets for wattage restrictions)
- increases fixture efficiency and reduces power losses for added energy savings
- better power regulation improves lamp life, lumen maintenance, and reduces lamp color shift
- allows for quieter fixture operation, reduces ballast resonance
-
Optional lamp cycling device (CYC) regulates lamp usage in 24/7 working conditions (patent pending)
- CYC device randomly switches each luminaire off/on once a week
- combined with EONS circuitry equals instant HID restrike (eliminates light loss and cool down time)
- allows for lamp(s) to meet lamp manufacturer recommendations for 'off time'
- ensures rated life, lamp warranty, significantly reduces potential for non-passive end-of-life failure
- common issue in parking garages, factories, warehouses, etc. where products are run 24/7
