12、 Electrical Manufacturers Association AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI. ANSI states that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established w
13、hen, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means significantly more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be
14、considered, and a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether they have approved the standards or not, from: manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products,
15、 processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards, and will under no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation
16、of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard. Caution Notice: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn
17、 at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard.

40、 Switching Devices with Electronic Drivers and Discharge Ballasts 4 General 4.1 INDUCTION LIGHTING SYSTEMS Induction lighting systems generally consist of a sealed, electrode-less, phosphor-coated glass envelope (lamp), an electronic radio-frequency (RF) generator, and a power coupler. Induction lig
41、hting is a class of fluorescent lamp technology, since it utilizes mercury vapor to produce ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and a rare-earth phosphor coating on the glass envelope to convert UV to visible light. There are two classes of commercially available induction lamps: toroidal (ring) lamps and r
42、e-entrant cavity lamps (see below). 4.1.1 Toroidal (Ring) Induction Lamps Toroidal (ring) induction lamps consists of a tube ring that penetrates a closed ferrite core, with a primary winding to which RF power is applied (Figure 1). The ferrite ring then induces a current in the lamp, effectively a
43、single-turn secondary. Figure 1 SCHEMATIC OF A TOROIDAL (RING) ELECTRODELESS FLUORESCENT LAMP ANSI C136.38-2015 Page 3 2015 National Electrical Manufacturers Association 4.1.2 Re-Entrant Cavity Lamps Re-entrant cavity lamps contain an insulated coil that is wound several turns around a ferrite core
44、and placed within a re-entrant cavity, inside a lamp similar in shape to a regular incandescent bulb (see Figure 2). The application of an RF (usually 2.65 MHz) current activates the discharge. Figure 2 SCHEMATIC OF A RE-ENTRANT CAVITY LAMP 4.2 OPERATION IN HIGH HUMIDITY ENVIRONMENTS All components
45、must be designed to operate in a high-humidity environment, such as is normally encountered by luminaires designed for use in roadway and area lighting in outdoor applications, or the components must be enclosed in suitable housing designed to protect the components in high-humidity environments. 4.
46、3 EXTREME LOW TEMPERATURES Manufacturers should be consulted for extreme low temperature (below -13F -25C) applications. 5 RF Generator Requirements 5.1 OPERATING VOLTAGES The RF generator shall be designed to operate at a nominal input frequency of 50 or 60 Hz, alternating current (AC), and shall b
47、e clearly marked to identify suitable input supply voltages. 5.2 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE The RF generator, when installed in a luminaire per the induction system manufacturers specifications, shall be designed to operate continuously in draft-free air at an ambient temperature of 77F (25C) with no reduc
48、tion in lamp life from the rated value. 5.3 CASE TEMPERATURE If the RF generator has a maximum case temperature rating to achieve rated life, the test point must be so marked on the case and that temperature must be listed on the RF generators label. 5.4 MOUNTING PROVISIONS Mounting provisions shall
49、 be provided to securely mount the RF generator to the luminaire. ANSI C136.38-2015 Page 4 2015 National Electrical Manufacturers Association 5.5 HEAT SINK Any heat sink or radiator necessary for continuous operation of the RF generator at rated output shall be properly attached to the ballast or generator in a manner to retain constant thermal contact over the life of the system. If the RF generator design requires that the luminaire housing or a component in the luminaire housing be a part of a heat sink, the induction system manufactu
