Benefits
Ceravision's technology platform has combined a number of technical breakthroughs to create a light source with unparalleled levels of energy efficiency. We are able to deliver exceptionally high lumens per watt levels due to the unique construction of our integrated resonator and plasma burner and specifically, the use of an optically clear waveguide enabling access to all the light emitted by the plasma source.
The absence of electrodes enables absolute flexibility in the choice of dose chemistry, giving our lamp designers the freedom to select high efficiency doses which are otherwise unavailable for use in electroded lighting systems. There are no additional ballast losses or power factor correction issues to consider with Ceravision's High Efficiency Plasma (HEP) lighting systems (to the overall power stated). Ballast loses present a serious drawback to conventional lighting systems using either traditional or electronic ballasts. As a result of all the above features, the Ceravision HEP lighting system draws substantially less energy for the same light output on a system watt basis, compared to alternative electroded and electrodeless lighting systems. The HEP system delivers greater than 90 lumens per system watt.
