I have looked at the Ballasts that are on the site, Unfortunately, I am in the states on a 120/60Hz, I think we are one of the few countries still on 120/60Hz LOL. the ballasts shown are 220V.

Anyway, If you Pm me with a Fax number I would be able to provide you with the specs on the ballast.

http://www.sylvania.com/ProductCatal...hSpecGuide.htm
This link also has a Ballast for dimming T5Ho Dali and 0-10V. Maybe that could shed some light on the matter.

I have just recieved my Geisman bulbs and T5 reflectors today, and am trying to press forward on this project.

GHL sent me literature on the Dimmable Driver Blanh for 0-10V ballasts, the Dali ballasts have that technology built in, this si what leads to my questions on the ballast types for 120V.

Thanks again for the time to read this.

Hi

DALI-ballasts can't be used with ProfiLux.
As far as i know Proline was searching for dimmable 120V-ballasts.
@Jason: Some news?

argh yes sorry, you require 120V.

I have just spent an age sifting through USA web sites and have come up with an array of 120V dimmable non Dali ballasts. i am just waiting for Matthias to confirm which ones are Ok and i will then let you know.

Regards
Michael

Thank you Gentleman, I have been told the Osram Ballast, In Conjuction with the EVG-AP2, Version 4.xx Module should surfice it is 0-10V Capable[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/ANTHON%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/ANTHON%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg[/IMG]untitled.bmp Does this come in a 120V Config?

Sorry for being a Pain, I understand you are 7-8 weeks from production for us Yankees

But I am really sold on this product, And I hate like heck to have to put this project on hold for two to three more months, I am at the 2 month mark on this as of now, and was hoping i could make this work.

Thanks you al so much for working with me on this.

Ok first things first

http://www.sylvania.com/content/disp...m&id=003678766

thats the type of ballast you require.

I am waiting to hear if the EVG-AP is 120V also, it is national holiday in Germany so Matthias naturally is not available

I will let you know asap.

Regards
Michael

EVG-AP are Ok for 120V so you are good to go, no long wait. You require this to interface between the ballasts and the profiLux, this also switches mains.

GHL can also obtain the correct Sylvania ballasts.

Michael
