Energy Efficient Neon Power Supplies

Introducing the next step forward in technology!

Ventex “Generation III” UL 2161 Listed Products — Technology so advanced, no other neon power supply or transformer even comes close in performance and reliability to Ventex units. With new exclusive Ventex "Triple-Shot", "Surge" and "Brownout" protection, Generation III technology does more than any other electronic neon power supply or transformer to keep your signs on and protect your investment.

"Triple-Shot" Protection — Automatically turns on up to three times for intermittent problems to resist spurious trips.

"Surge" Protection — Clamps primary incoming voltage spikes on outdoor CL units (up to 2500 joules energy spike) to prevent internal damage due to over-voltage and line surges.

"Brownout" Protection — Eliminates false tripping due to dips in primary voltage.

In addition, the proven“Generation II” technological breakthroughs are still incorporated into each and every “Generation III” unit to ensure maximum performance.

LALR (Line and Load Regulation) — Automatically maintains consistent brightness between letters. Line and Load regulation means the smallest letter “i” is as bright as the largest letter "W".

SST (Soft Start Technology) — Combined with Ventex's "Triple-Shot" virtually eliminates nuisance tripping on start-up. Ventex neon power supplies detect the higher strike voltage and automatically compensate to reduce false tripping.

PDS (Phase Detection System) — Compares Load vs. Capacitance Current to provide full GFI protection and eliminate most false tripping.

Greater Energy Savings — Ventex standard HPF (High Power Factor) electronic neon power supplies draw minimal input current which lowers energy consumption. Ventex units can save up to 66% of the energy used by standard electromagnetic neon transformers. Lower input current means you can put up to seventeen fully loaded VT 9030CL-120 units on a single 20A circuit. Ventex neon power supplies are comparable to LED systems in energy consumption for a fraction of the cost!
