Magnetic Ballasts
Simplified Solutions
OSRAM SYLVANIA is focused on
helping our customers understand
our products, and to simplifying
their use and applications. SYLVANIA
magnetic fluorescent product labels
include an industry first — a handy
cross-reference guide to help identify
the proper ballast for replacing
existing installed products. The line
voltage is also clearly identified to
ensure proper application, and our
shipping carton labels are also color
coded to indicate the voltage to help
avoid misapplication even before the
ballasts are out of the box.
SYLVANIA Magnetic HID
ballast descriptions are
based on the corresponding
lamp description to make
lamp/ballast matching and
identification easier.
All fluorescent and HID
carton labels also identify
the corresponding
lamp/ballast matching
to make proper product
selection as clear and
as simple as possible.
