Advance introduces the Centium ® T5/HO electronic ballast featuring IntelliVolt-Hi ™ technology for operation at 347-480V, 50/60Hz. The ballast is designed to operate one or two F54T5/HO lamps and will also operate a variety of other fluorescent lamp types and wattages. Since the new ballast can operate at any input voltage from 347 to 480V, 50/60Hz, it is highly suitable for industrial applications that utilize a 480V AC system, eliminating the need to rewire to another mains voltage. The 90°C case temperature rating makes the ballast ideal for use in high-temperature ambients. The IntelliVolt-Hi feature, combined with its ability to operate either one or two lamps, provides significant cost savings to both OEMs and distributors by reducing the number of SKUs required in inventory.

Alkco Lighting Multi-Med
Alkco introduces Multi-Med, a multifunction, ceiling-recessed patient room lighting system. It provides four separate indirect and direct lighting functions including room-ambient, patient-reading, and physician-exam lighting, as well as an optional nurse's night light, all from a single 2x4 fixture. It permits comfortable, efficient functioning of a patient room without cluttering wall or floor space. In standard position it emits diffused, glare-free, ambient overhead lighting through shielded energy-efficient fluorescent lamps. When switched to a reading light position, it emits downward illumination at a right angle, so it reflects off the back wall to eliminate direct glare and shadow. An exam light function provides full, accurate illumination over the entire bed area. The nurse's light function provides ideal low-level illumination to allow night nurses to check on patients without disturbing them.

Humanscale debuts the Diffrient Light. Designed by industrial designer Niels Diffrient, the 26W quad-tube fluorescent lamp and in-line electronic ballast provide a cool light source with up to four times the lamp life. Made of anodized aluminum, the parallel arms maintain reflector shade position during placement and the double arms allow light to reach 42" from the base. For glare-free lighting on both desktop and computer screen, the parabolic reflector shade is adjustable 360° horizontally and 220° vertically. The lamp is both feather-light and cool to the touch for effortless one-hand positioning and burn safety. A virtually perfect counterbalance with concealed springs eliminates the need for friction adjustment. And the thin frame and small shade will not interfere with the workspace or surrounding aesthetic. The light is available with single or double parallel arms and comes with a host of desk and wall-mount options.
