Vossloh-Schwabe LN 58.116 (508186) Electromagnetic Ballast – 1×58 W, 230 V

Vossloh-Schwabe LN 58.116 is a 230 V, 50 Hz electromagnetic ballast for one 58 W fluorescent lamp (T8 G13 and T-U 2G13; the catalogue also lists 65 W for T8/T12 G13) with a lamp current of 670 mA. The housing measures 190 × 180 × 92 mm and weighs 0.80 kg.

Features, advantages and benefits

• Supports 58 W and 65 W lamps with a current of 670 mA (T8/T12 G13, T-U 2G13) → the catalogue lists the same part number for several lamp types with the same current. → makes it easier to select a replacement for older luminaires.
• 190 × 180 × 92 mm housing, weight 0.80 kg → smaller and lighter than the LN 58.568 version (233 × 220 × 160 mm, 1.31 kg) in the same catalogue table. → more likely to fit in a luminaire with limited space.
• Vacuum-impregnated with polyester resin → the windings are protected with resin. → provides a more mechanically stable construction inside the luminaire.
• Push-in terminals for 0.5–1 mm² wires and IDC terminals for H05V-U 0.5 wires → push-in connection with no screws to tighten, and the option of automated luminaire wiring. → reduces installation time for larger batches.
• Winding temperature tw 130 and temperature rise Δt/Δt_an 55/160 K → the manufacturer specifies the permissible thermal values for the windings. → makes it easier to assess whether the ballast is suitable for the thermal conditions of a particular luminaire.
• Protection class I → the ballast is designed to operate with a protective conductor. → provides a higher level of safety for the lighting installation.
• Energy efficiency class B2 → the value listed in the manufacturer's catalogue for this part number. → allows comparison with other electromagnetic ballasts using a clearly stated parameter.
