Professional Applications
This igniter is essential for the corrective maintenance of high-performance Beam and Spot moving heads. It is indispensable for indoor and outdoor tours where beam consistency is critical, ensuring that fixtures such as the Clay Paky Sharpy or Martin Rush MH 3 maintain original photometric parameters even during extended duty cycles.
Exclusive Advantages
Unlike low-quality universal ballasts, the YODN unit is specifically calibrated to the impedance curves of the MSD 200 S5 series. This results in a drastic reduction of thermal stress on the lamp electrodes, silent ignition, and advanced protection against voltage drops, minimizing equipment downtime during live events.
FAQ for Installers
Can I install this on projectors using Philips or Osram lamps?
Yes, the electronics are compatible with Philips Platinum and Osram Sirius 200W models. However, to ensure perfect white point calibration and maximum lamp longevity, direct pairing with YODN light sources is preferred.
What are the signs of a failing ballast?
If the moving head exhibits ignition failure (misfire), sudden shutdowns after a few minutes of operation, or abnormal electrical humming during the boost phase, the igniter has likely reached the end of its functional life cycle.
Is software calibration required after replacement?
In most documented cases (e.g., ADJ Vizi or Elation Platinum), the installation is plug-and-play. It is nonetheless recommended to check the lamp hour counter and reset it to correctly monitor the wear of the new component.
Is the YODN igniter interchangeable with OEM components?
Yes, this ballast is designed as a direct replacement for the wide range of projectors utilizing Platinum 5R or MSD 200 S5 technology. Specifically, it is fully compatible with the power supply circuits (verify mounting points via technical data sheet) of the following models:
- ADJ: Vizi Beam 5R, Vizi Beam 5RX, Vizi Spot 5R, Vizi Spot 5RX, Ninja 5RX
