This system consists of an electrically heated chamber and control unit, suitable to test
self-ballasted CFL under abnormal condition such as at higher temperature upto 70°C and also at
higher voltage up to 270V.
The interior of the cabinet is finished with silver paint and exterior part is given with
powder coat finish.
The overall size of the cabinet is: 48″ (length) × 24″ (width) × 58″ (height).
Size of each compartment is: 48″ (L) × 24″ (W) × 12″ (H).
The holders used are suitable for B22 d2 type lamp caps, which are ceramic type with plunger
contacts. All holders are mounted in CRCA channels with concealed wiring using heat resistant
fiberglass wires.
Control unit: -
The control unit for the above electrically heated chamber consists of Digital Voltmeter,
Time totaliser, Digital Cyclic Timer to set ON time and OFF time, Contactors, Autotransformer
to set the test volt, Isolator ON/OFF switch, MCB, HRC fuse etc. All these controls are used four
numbers each to enable to control and test lamps in each compartment separately and
independently. The system is three phase-neutral operating type. The specifications of the items
incorporated are as follows:
1. Digital Voltmeter – AC

Display - 3½ digit
Quantity - 4 Nos
Aux. Supply - 230V, 50Hz mains
4. Contactors
Type - 3 phase with 3 ‘NO’
Rating - 16 Amps on each line
Coil volt - 220 – 240 V 50Hz
Quantity - 4 Nos
5. Autotransformer
Output Range - 0 – 270 V
Rated Current - 15A
Type - Air-cooled type to set the required test voltage
Quantity - 4 Nos
6. Isolation transformer
Additional two isolation transformer are used for two compartments so as
to get the output voltage maximum upto 400V in two compartment.
MCB (miniature circuit breaker) is provided in the input side and also in the output side for
every 10 lamps.
Master main ON/OFF switch is also there in the main input of suitable rating.
