Working Principle Of Fluorescent Lamp Starter

Jun 10, 2014

Fluorescent Lamp Starter is our featured product. Ourfluorescent lamp starters use the environmental protection materials and have longservice life. We promise the quick starting of our lamp starter.

It is an important componentof the fluorescent lamp, without it, fluorescent lamp cannot be started. Itsworking principle is using the properties of bimetallic strip when heatedbending, which can be made into a special kind of switch to control the on andoff of the circuit. The starter is automatic switch of fluorescent lamp. Inaluminum or plastic case, there is a small glass bubble, bubble filled withneon and equipped with two electrodes, what’s more, an electrode is invertedu-shaped bimetallic strip, which is called a moving contact extremely. Anotherelectrode wire is straight, which is called a static contact. The poles intothe tubes on both ends of the tube feet, starter of the poles are often contactwith each other. Fluorescent lamp after turning on the power supply, powersupply voltage on the starter at the poles, the gas discharge neon occursinside the bubble, the temperature of the bimetallic strip to lateral bendingand static touch very rapidly rising, making lamp filament circuit conductionand gas in heating tube. The starter inside disappear voltage between twoelectrodes, gas discharge stop, bimetallic strip because of cooling andcontraction, automatic and static contact is extremely disconnected, make theballast produces great instantaneous self induction electromotive force, thusmake the lamp light.
