Digital HIDTM (DHIDTM), Industrys Most Green Lighting Upgrade Solution Manufacturing Industry leaders TRW Automotive, H.J.

Heinz Company, McCain Foods Ltd., and PSION Inc., all benefit from Digital High-Intensity Discharge (DHIDTM) energy efficient lighting solutions today. DHIDTM ballast lighting technology is leading Industrys energy efficient lighting evolution with a solution to lighting upgrades which is costeffective, high-performing and the most responsible for the environment. Accendo Electronics Limited, a Canada and United States based lighting manufacturer, is a champion for the economy and the environment and is innovating with the Worlds most robust lighting solutions for Industry. Their new GloGreen Series DHIDTM retrofit ballasts and lighting fixtures offer many value added benefits on the upgrade of any outdoor or indoor lighting application. The retrofit upgrade is a simple solution which reduces lighting expenses by forty percent to seventy five percent or more, and produces very little waste since existing lighting fixtures can be re-used. It is a known fact that Industry can realize significant money savings by simply upgrading old lighting systems with new more energy efficient lighting; but of greater importance is the reduction in greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere as a result. By drastically reducing the electricity demanded from the power utilities by Municipalities and Industries, a substantial impact can be had on the reduction of CO2 emissions released, and on Industrys carbon footprint as a whole. Add the option for the responsible reuse of the existing lighting system fixture, and project costs can be further reduced while putting even less of an effect on the environment. The environment wins and your project wins considering DHIDTM lighting offers the perfect balance of buying cost, performance and low operating/consumable costs over the long term for a favorably short return on investment time. High-Intensity Discharge (HID) bulb lighting is a trusted technology; it has been in use around the World for decades and today remains the most widely used type of high-power lighting for outdoor and indoor purposes such as street/parking lot lighting, factory or retail/warehouse lighting, automobile dealership, greenhouse/hydroponics and arena/stadium lighting for example. To power the HID bulb, traditionally a core and coil (magnetic) ballast is used. By simply retrofitting an energy efficient DHIDTM ballast in place of the less efficient magnetic ballast, an instant forty percent plus (40%+) energy savings is possible; e.g. if the existing magnetic ballast light fixture uses a four hundred Watt (400W) power ballast and 400W lamp, and the new GloGreen ballast using two hundred fifty Watts (250W) is installed in-place with a 250W lamp, the customer can now expect longer lasting light quality with over 40% savings in electricity, and all for a fraction of the cost and waste of purchasing a new fixture. Adding dimming to the same application yields even greater energy savings. The DHIDTM retrofit ballast brings new life to HID bulb systems including the benefits of extended lamp life, increased lumen output, instant-dimming, quick ignition/restrike times and Automatic or preprogrammed schedule dimming capabilities for maximized energy savings and lamp life. A breakthrough innovation is the guarantee that a HID lamp powered by a DHIDTM ballast will not visibly degrade over its entire lifetime. Older magnetic ballast powered

HID lamp systems are known for their rapid degradation or premature dimming in as little as six months or five thousand hours; this is no longer the case with DHIDTM since the customer can now expect forty to fifty thousand hours (40,000hrs. to 50,000hrs.), and beyond life from the same lamp while suffering no more than a five to ten percent drop in light quality and output right up to the end of the lamps life. Accendo GloGreen Digital HIDTM ballasts offer unparalleled electrical efficiency and performance compared to conventional magnetic ballasts, states Les Poroszlay, Accendos Director of Technology; Accendo DHIDTM lighting offers the most cost-effective, value-added alternative to LED, fluorescent and induction based technologies for new and retrofit industrial and commercial Green lighting projects.
