    摘要: A circuit arrangement is provided for operating a high pressure discharge lamp with a lamp current which, in successive periods, has opposite polarities. The lamp is provided with at least two main electrodes being spaced an electrode distance from each other. The circuit arrangement includes input terminals for connection to a supply source, output terminals for connection to the high pressure discharge lamp, and an element, coupled to the input terminals, for supplying the lamp current to the high pressure discharge lamp, which current, in successive periods, has a predetermined shape. The circuit arrangement is provided with an element for detecting a first parameter indicative of the electrode distance and forming a first signal dependent on the first parameter and with an element for reshaping the lamp current, in successive periods, in dependence of the thus formed first signal.

    摘要: A high-pressure gas discharge lamp with a cooling arrangement is described, which is characterized in particular in that the lamp can be operated at an increased power, an increase in the temperature of the coldest spot in the lamp interior generating a higher gas pressure, while the cooling arrangement (7, 71, 83, 82) is constructed and dimensioned such that a devitrification of the lamp bulb and a condensation of the filling gas are substantially prevented at said increased power. A lighting unit with such a high-pressure gas discharge lamp is further described, as is a power supply unit for operating the lamp. This not only considerably improves the spectral properties of the light, but the lamp also operates at a higher operating voltage because of the higher gas pressure, so that a correspondingly higher lamp power is achieved for a given lamp current. On the other hand, given the same lamp power, a weaker current is required, so that the electrodes will have a substantially longer useful life. All this is achieved without any change in the geometry of the lamp.
