H.V. IGNITERS FOR SHORT ARC XENON LAMPS
A complete range of high voltage igniters expressly designed to strike short arc xenon lamps from 150W to 15000W.
IREM high frequency superimposing igniters have been designed for AC mains supply to suit most applications. These asymmetrical igniters are characterized by a compact design, high thermal stability and galvanic insulation, and can be equipped with a wide range of timing boards that make them suitable for a wide variety of applications.
The igniters without suffix “A” are suitable for manual ignition.
The igniters with suffix “A” are fitted with a built-in timing board for automatic and/or short-timed ignition, to avoid damaging the igniter in case of faulty lamp operation.
A short and noiseless lamp ignition can be achieved by selecting the timing board threshold voltage, as to be compatible with the electrical characteristics of every kind of rectifier. Moreover, igniters with few pulses for half cycle are available for use with sophisticated electronic appliances, in order to reduce R.F. interferences.
AS series meet the recommendations of lamp manufacturers, as they ensure immediate and correct lamp ignition in any cooling condition.
These units should be installed close to the lamp, but thermally shielded from it. The high voltage lead must be as short as possible and carefully insulated to prevent corona discharge and reduction in strike energy.
They must be grounded for proper interferences suppression.

It is possible to adjust the ignition threshold voltage as per following indications: jumper position No.1 = 146Vdc, No.2 = 117Vdc, No.3 = 92Vdc, No.4 = 77Vdc.
IT IS ALWAYS NECESSARY TO CHECK IF THE TIMING BOARD CHARACTERISTICS MATCH THE RECTIFIER.
