Because they do not have an intrinsic feedback mechanism that limits operating current like the positive temperature coefficient of resistance of the filaments of incandescent light bulbs, gas discharge lamps need a ballast to limit electric current. Modern electronic lighting ballasts use solid-state circuitry to transform the voltage and alter the frequency of the supplied power. This eliminates any flickering of the CFL and regulates power more efficiently than is possible with standard magnetic lighting ballasts. page 2 Lighting Ballast - European Standard : Primary Side, EMI/RFI Filter Filter Capacitors Product Name Status Description Features Package Q-Level 125L C2, C3: leaded X1/Y4 ceramic capacitor Cap.range: 1nF - 50nF; 400 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA 20 VL C1: leaded X2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range: 1nF - 100nF; 400 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA 30LV C2, C3: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range: 10pF - 15nF; 400 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA 30LVS C2, C3: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range: 1nF - 10nF; 400 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA 440L C1: leaded X1/Y1 ceramic capacitor Cap.range: 10pF - 10nF; 500 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA EMI/RFI Y1-VY1 C2, C3: leaded X1/Y1 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:10pF-4700pF; 760 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA EMI/RFI Y2-DN C1: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:10pF-10,000pF; 400 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA EMI/RFI Y2-VY2 C2, C3: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:10pF-0.01µF; 440 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA MKP 338 6 Y2 C2, C3: leaded Y2 film capacitor Cap.range:0.001µF-0.47µF; 300 VAC; self healing TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA MKP 339 X2 C1: leaded X2 film capacitor Cap.range: 0.001µF-4.7µF; 275 VAC; self healing TH / Radial EN/IEC CQC; UL; CSA VKO C2, C3: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:1nF - 4.7nF; 440 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA VKP C1: leaded X1/Y1 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:470pF-4700pF; 760 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA WKO C2, C3: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:33pF-4700pF; 440 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA WKP C1: leaded X1/Y1 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:33pF-4700pF; 760 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA WYO C2, C3: leaded X1/Y2 ceramic capacitor Cap.range:1nF - 12nF; 440 VAC; TH / Radial EN/IEC UL CSA page 3 Lighting Ballast - European Standard : Primary Side, Overvoltage Protection Varistor Product Name Status Description Features Package VDRH - - .E V1: leaded varistor Max.
