Digital HID, Industry’s Most Green Lighting Upgrade Solution

(I-Newswire) January 6, 2010 - 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 S DHID retrofit ballasts and lighting fixtures offer many value-added benefits on the upgrade of any outdoor or building 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 by upgrading old lighting systems with new energy efficient lighting Industry can realize significant money savings, 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 the decrease of Industry’s carbon footprint as a whole. DHID lighting offers the perfect balance of buying cost, performance and low operating/consumable costs over the long term for a favourably short return on investment time. And with the option for the responsible reuse of the existing lighting system fixture, costs can be further reduced with even less of an effect on the environment.

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 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; i.e. 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 a brighter light output with over fifty percent savings in electricity and 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 on times and wireless communication and software capabilities for maximized energy savings. A breakthrough innovation is the guarantee that the digital ballast powered HID bulb 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; this is no longer the case with DHID since the customer can expect up 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.

Also, with a new bulb cost of twenty dollars, the end-user incurs very little expenses over the lifetime of the system since bulb changes are really infrequent at every five years or more. The GloGreen digital ballast is designed to solve all of the problems associated with traditional magnetic HID systems including those of energy inefficiencies due to heat losses and the poor lumen output and lamp performance as a result. The GloGreen DHID ballast operates at ninety-seven percent efficiency, losing only three percent to heat for the brightest lighting output per energy consumed.
