Arc Lamp Ignitor

The ignitor consists of a step-up power supply, a spark gap, and a transformer. The Arc Lamp Ignitor is mounted under or next to the Arc Lamp. It provides the high voltage pulse necessary to ignite the Xenon Arc Lamp that is the illumination supply for the HJT Model 330, 340SC and 370SC projectors.

The System Power Supply’s Arc Lamp Supply section provides the necessary voltage to activate the ignitor and to sustain the arc in the Arc Lamp once it has been ignited. The SPS provides the power necessary to operate the ignitor.

The Ignitor is only active during the time between the Arc Lamp Power Supply energizing and the Arc Lamp igniting. During steady state operation and when the projector power is off, the ignitor is inactive.
