Vossloh-Schwabe 994603 EVG EVL258 4211BBH230 EEI=A2 116.5x63x28 mm 230 V AC/DC content_copy

Electronic ballasts (EVG) of the brand Vossloh-Schwabe, type 994603, are designed for use with compact fluorescent lamps. The device functions as an electronic ballast regulator, providing the necessary operating voltage and frequency for the lamp to ensure stable and energy-efficient lighting. The compact design is intended for installation in standard lighting fixtures, with dimensions of 116.5 mm (length) × 63 mm (width) × 28 mm (height). These ballasts are designed for lamp powers of 26, 32, and 42 watts, making them suitable for a wide range of luminaires in offices, retail spaces, or industrial facilities.

Applications
EVG 994603 are intended for use in electrical equipment within the lighting technology sector, particularly in luminaires with compact fluorescent lamps. They are suitable for indoor environments where constant light output and low power consumption density are required. The ambient temperature range for operation is between -10 °C and +50 °C, allowing use in air-conditioned rooms as well as in rooms with moderate heat generation.

Functions and Features in Detail
The ballast is designed for operation at a nominal voltage of 230 V AC. It also supports DC operation in the range of 176 to 245 V, providing flexibility in power supply. Radio frequency interference suppression is in accordance with standard EN 55015, ensuring that the device does not introduce unwanted electromagnetic interference into the network or adjacent equipment. Voltage endurance is certified according to EN 61547, guaranteeing electrical safety and reliability under various operating conditions.

Technology Explained Simply
An electronic ballast such as model 994603 converts the mains voltage into a form suitable for the fluorescent lamp. It electronically switches on the lamp, regulates the operating frequency (typically in the high-frequency range), and ensures a constant current supply to avoid flicker and light fluctuations. The use of electronics instead of mechanical switches or transformers results in higher efficiency and extended lamp life.

Compatibility and Accessories
The device is specifically designed for compact fluorescent lamps with power ratings of 26, 32, and 42 watts. It is intended for use in luminaires with TC-DEL/TEL housing types. Compatibility with these lamp types ensures proper ignition and operational safety. There is no information available regarding specific accessories or additional modules that can be combined with this device.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is carried out in standard luminaire enclosures designed for the installation dimensions of 116.5 × 63 × 28 mm. The device is intended for fixed mounting, with electrical connections made to the mains supply and the lamp. Installation does not require special tools, but compliance with electrical safety regulations and correct polarity of connections is mandatory.

Operational Advantages
The use of an electronic ballast offers higher energy efficiency compared to conventional ballasts. Reduced heat generation and extended lamp life result in lower operating costs. Radio frequency interference suppression according to EN 55015 ensures interference-free operation in electrical installations. Support for DC operation expands the range of applications in systems with alternative power supplies.
