1Device and function description
The EVG UVT is a microprocessor-based electronic power supply for two UV low pressure lamps. It is
available in two sizes for wattages from 2x 100-200W and 2x 150-320 W. It allows to operate all UV low
pressure lamps in a power range from 200 W up to 480 W with lamp currents from 1.2 A up to 2.1 A. A
rotary switch with 10 positions enables the selection of diverse lamp parameters. All commercially
available lamps are covered with the standard types described like follows.
The EVG UVT is designated for medium size installations. The two-channel design minimizes the costs per
lamp. The two-flamed unit comes by default with an input for remote control. Via an external 10-230 V
AC/DC signal a remote control can be realized easily. The function provides the possibility for switching
block by block. Especially in bigger installations will that minimize switching peaks, can reduce the risk of
EMC disturbances and shall be used to vary the power according to the requirements. Hence the function
replaces the dimming function, available at our single-flamed ballast types. The total numbers of ballasts in
the application have to be apportioned to the phases. The function is active at positions 5-9 of the rotary
switch. For switch positions 0-4 the switching on occurs by applying the mains voltage.
A microprocessor controls and monitors the device and the connected lamps in order to prevent damages
during operation. Breakdowns are displayed via potential-free contact per lamp/channel. Simultaneously
LEDs show the status and the type of failure. Both lamps run independent from each other. So the failure
of one lamp do not provoke the breakdown of the second lamp. The permanent operation with only one
lamp must be avoided if the allowed minimal input power will be undercut.
The EVG UVT contains no internal fan and must be mounted upright with the mains clamps below. With
unhindered convection, proper heat dissipation is guaranteed up to ambient temperatures of 40°C.
Criterion for the correct cooling is the tc-point temperature of 50°C at the case cover. To avoid damages by
overheating, the EVG UVT must be forced cooled in case of exceeding that threshold or if the mounting
position is deviant. Units for power range of 2x 150-320W are equipped with an additional yellow LED,
which provides a premonition for overheating. The blinking of that yellow LED indicates that a permanent
operation causes losses in life time. Still higher temperatures provoke a shutdown.
The EVG UVT is designated for integration into switch cabinet and switch boxes. The connection of the unit
is realized by pluggable spring clamps and provides so the preassembling of the cables.
The EVG UVT offers the following essential advantages:
·compact design, low weight, little cabling effort
·two independent lamp channels
·constant power output over the entire input voltage range
·high frequency operation eliminates flickering of cathodes and raises the UV-efficiency
·integrated remote control function to minimize EMC disturbances, resp. for remote switching
·mains voltage range permits use in Europe at 230 V AC and America at 208 V AC
·rotary switch for adjustment of lamp types and enabling the remote control function
·failure display by potential free contact and blink code
·pre heating and gentle ignition to extend lamp life time
·high efficiency operation with additional cutoff of filament heating during operation
·potential-free connection of external LEDs possible, LED supply integrated for easy application
·integrated in rush current limiter
·tailor made programming of special lamps within the power range possible
·RS485 control as option

The EVG UVT switches of the lamp in case of a breakdown or failure. The failure status is indicated with the
potential-free contact and additonally with a blinking code of the red LED. The failure status is maintained
until switching off the mains voltage. Only by switching off the mains voltage, it is possible to reset the
failure status. After having eliminated the failure cause and carried out a reset, you can start again the EVG

9Installation instructions
Point of installation
The EVG UVT must be installed and operated only in a dry, chemically and bioligically inactive environment.
Installation in vibrating parts of the system is not allowed. Hints regarding IP protection have to be
observed. The EVG UVT must be mounted upright at a grounded mounting base, which absorbs and
removes ideally the emitted heat partly. For the installation, suitable fixing screws have to be selected. It is
necessary to ensure that a distance between the screw and the printed ciruit board of at least of 3 mm is
kept. In no case, wide flat screw heads may be used, which protrude below the PCB (danger of short ciruit!).
The EVG UVT and its cabeling should be mounted separatelly from other components of the installation if
possible. That is especially important for control, signal or sensor cables with its low voltages/currents.
Connection / cabling
The EVG UVT must be connected according the terminal diagram and the front sticker. The ballast is
equipped with spring tension terminals, suitable as well for stranded wires as for rigid cables. The possible
wire gauges are spezified in the technical data. Length of the stripped insulation or ferrules must be chosen
according to the size of the terminals. The connection must be tight. Otherwise short ciruits, wrong or
loose connections could cause disfunctions and damages.
Cabeling of lamps
Each lamp must be connected to the EVG UVT with an individual cable. It is not allowed to bundle several
lamp cables into a multi-core cable. Cable connections to the lamp may not be disconnected during
operation. By no means install additonal components into the lamp supply cable, such as relays, switches,
ignitors or capacitors. The number of the clamping points in the lamp cable should be reduced to a
minimum, if possible any additional clamping should be avoided. Designated clamps and connectors must
be checked carefully, not only rearding electrical data but necessarily also relating to temperature and
environmental conditions. Clamp contacts must be protected against corrosion. Sparks at corroded clamps
could cause disfunctions or breakdown of the EVG UVT and imply fire hazard.
Because of the high frequency supply, lamp cables emitts disturbances. Hence never install mains supply
cables or control cables parallel to lamp cables. To minimize EMC disturbances, lamp cables must be kept
as short as possible. Do not exceed the maximal lenght or cable capacity specified in the technical data. It is
allowed to use shielded cables to reduce interferences. But note thus increases the cable capacity.
Installing lamp cables in parallel as well as at metallic surfaces or cable ducts raise also the capacity. The
sum of all parasitic capacities detune the oscillator circuit in the EVG UVT and can cause ignition problems
and a deviant lamp current.
Mains supply cabling
The mains supply cabling must have a low impedance and the installation of the power cable has to be
such that interferences by the emission of lamp cables are minimized. Mains supply cables must be kept
short and should not be installed parallel to the lamp cables or directly along the ballast housings.
Intersections with lamp cables should be avoided where possible. If absolutely necessary, such crossings
shall be made in right angles and a certain distance. Unavoidable noise interferences must be filtered with
appropriate measures. Basically, the interference avoidance is preferable to interference elimination.

Grounding
A clean earth potential and a proper grounding with an adequate cable cross section are the preconditions
for compliance with the EMC standards. Only if this is guaranteed, high frequecy disturbances can be
derived an thus prevented. Therefore, always connect all grounding terminals. Ground the mounting base
plate. Do not forget to ground the cabinet door. Use toothed washers for a reliable contacting of painted
surfaces/housings. Avoid ground loops.
Additional notes for cabling
Any damage to the cables must be avoided. Cable penetrations through housings shall have no burrs and
must be adequate insulated. The same applies to edges touched by the cable. Use cable glands and bent
protections and consider the allowed bending radiuses. The cable specification must comply with the
environmental conditions on site. If necessary, special cables need to be used (e.g. waterproof, oil- or
flame-resistant, etc.). Should cables be exposed to UV radiation or to ozone, generated by UV lamps, they
must be insulated with Teflon (PTFE) or fibre glass. All other materials are not sufficiently UV-stable and
need therefore to be protected in an appropriate manner.
Temperature behaviour
The lifetime of an electronic device is determined by the error rate of the electronic components of which
it consists. Generally spoken, the higher the temperature, the higher the error rate, the shorter the lifespan.
In the EVG UVT, the electrolytic capacitor is the lifespan-determining component (see chart). We use only
premium-quality capacitors of the highest temperature
stability. In compliance with the installation
instructions as well as the maximum housing
temperature, a lifetime of at least 50,000 hours is
expected. That a temperature change of 10K doubles
or halves the life of the capacitor can be seen as rough
calculation. Please make sure that the specified
maximum case temperature is not exceeded even in
extreme operation (worst case). If you measure the
temperature contact-free, please make sure that the
correction factor for the measured surface is adjusted correctly. Otherwise, significant measurement errors
may occur.
A sufficiently large cabinet should be chosen. The contained air must be able to circulate. If possible, use
sheet metal housings. In comparison, plastic and stainless steel are the worse heat conductors. Also with
regards to the shielding of electromagnetic radiation caused by the ballasts, the sheet metal is the best
choice. When calculating the size of the cabinet according to the specified loss, do not forget to add the
loss of other build in components. Assemble the ballasts if possible in the lower part of the cabinet, as it is
cooler. The distance between the EVG UVT must be at least 1 cm. Do not restrict the air convection with
other fixtures or installation channels. If you need to assemble the devices above each other, please note
that their operation is influenced by heat generation. The maximum case temperature must not be
exceeded even for the upper unit. Avoid the input of heat from the outside. Assemble a roof for shading
the control box for example. Decouple warm lamp housings from the ballast housings. Otherwise, it is of
course beneficial to couple thermally cold equipment (e.g. reactor with cold water) to the cabinet of the
EVG UVT. Turn on active cooling when overheating threatens. Wait long enough while doing temperature
tests to reach the thermal balance of the ballasts. This can take up to several hours. Try to keep the case

temperature of ballasts for most of the time below the maximum allowable temperature (approx. 10K less).
Hence, you will achieve a longer lifetime and better operating safety.
Switching
When switching the EVG UVT on an inrush current pulse of very short duration arises by the up-charge of
the integral storage capacitor for the internal power supply. So choose the fuses out not only by the
indicated operating currents, but also by the impact load. If possible, use slow-blow fuses. The same
applies to the ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), which is triggered either by the high temporary inrush
current or a low continuous current. Here, the leakage currents arise on the interference suppression
capacitors of the EVG UVT. If allowed, please install a surge resistant, short-delayed GFCI protection switch
with 30 mA. Should the maximum possible number of EPS be exceeded for fuse or GFCI, you must group
them wisely. Pay attention to the uniform load of the phases.
Please avoid repeated switch-off and on cycles of electronic ballasts. Wait at least 10 seconds after shut
down before the next switching. In extreme switching loads you should check with the service of the UV-
Technik Speziallampen GmbH first, if the selected device is suitable for your application.
If a failure is indicated, the EVG UVT needs to cutoff from the mains voltage. Thus will reset the failure
status and internal counters. After having eliminated the failure cause, you can start again the EVG UVT.
The restart after a power failure will be carried out automatically.
Monitoring
Besides the usual operation LEDs, the EVG UVT are equipped with a potential free signal output per
chanel/lamp, which notifies the proper function of the unit. This output is a relay that switches once the
lamp is in operation. This relay output can be used for displaying/signalising or switching functions. Please
note the specified values in the data sheets for the contact load. Inductive or capacitive loads have to be
avoided. In addition to the maximum allowable load, the minimum load must be considered in particular.
Since relay contacts are cleaned by the sparks resulting from switching, the permanent operation with too
low power or too low voltage can cause contact problems. Especially keep this in mind, when the signal
contacts are to be connected directly to a PLC, where only 5 V and a few mA are present in the
communication circuit. Avoid, if possible, a series of signal contacts. If this is unavoidable, please make
signal rings with just as few devices. In this case, select voltages/currents in the signal circuit, which are
significantly above the allowed minimum values.
In addition to the relay outlet, the flexible adjustable types of the EVG UVT have the possibility to connect
additional operation LEDs directly. This function is useful, if the ballast operation must be displayed in the
front panel of the control box. The EVG UVT delivers 12 V DC supply for the connected LEDs. Please note
that the LEDs have to be equipped with a series resistor. The specified current of the LEDs of 20 mA must
not be exceeded. Please calulate the series resistor accordingly (minimal 600 Ohm) or related to the actual
LED-current.
Dimming
The EVG UVT have by default no dimming function. Please never try to dim the EVG UVT by changing the
mains supply voltage. The integral PFC regulates fluctuations in the supply voltage, so that there is no
influence on the output power. Mains voltages out of specification cutoff the ballast and may cause
damages.

Electromagnetic compatibility
The EVG UVT comply with the standards mentioned in the technical data and the CE declaration. As a part
of a system, other/further rules may be valid. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer/installer or
generally the operator to check the complete system according to the relevant rules. If several ballasts
build in a unit, generally additional measures can be necessary to eliminate interferences.
Beside the observance of the thresholds of the supply voltage, the mains suppl may not loaded with
distortions, burst and surge disturbances. If the mains quality is unknown, the installation of filters and
overvoltage/lightning protectors is recommended. An undisturbed supply is the precondition for a failure-
free operation.
In addition to the known technical contexts, all given instructions of this document are based on our
