Question:

Can the high voltage sodium lamp be connected directly to the power supply without the trigger and ballast?.

Can the high voltage sodium lamp be connected directly to the power supply without the trigger and ballast?.

Answer:

Certainly can not ah, not to say you won't trigger ballast, no lights, lights will voltage high pressure sodium lamp when start to have thousands of volts of electricity is triggered, you certainly can not say no light. The ballast may give you light up, but soon will be broken
No, how can I start without triggering it? Since it is high pressure, how can I use it properly without a steady flow of electricity through the flow of the town? Maybe it will burn several times
The tube and ballast of the high pressure sodium lamp are connected in series. When the current passes through, the trigger contacts are closed and the circuit is a circuit. After a period of time, the trigger sheet metal thermal expansion, contact separation, the ballast produces electromotive force is high, the electromotive force is high, coupled with the power supply voltage of 220 volts, enough to start a high-pressure sodium lamp.Therefore, flip flops and ballasts are essential. Without any one, the high pressure sodium lamp does not start.
Yes, it does matter.High voltage sodium lamp starting voltage to >=2500 volts, only 220 volts voltage is obviously not enough. In order to make the high voltage sodium lamp start normally, we must use the ballast.
