Kia Cee'd: Lighting System / Head Lamps Description and operation
Description and Operation |
1. |
Bulb
(1) |
Elements
Xenon gas: Xenon gas activates the initial reaction for rapid
illuminating.
Molybdenum electrode: anode arcing
Metal halide salts: color composing component
|
(2) |
Lightening principle
When Xenon gas and metal halide salt will discharge the molybdenum
anode in a capsule, it emits light.

Ignitor
Ignitor (A) is an electromagnetic transformer that receives current
from ballast and boost voltage to light on the arc light source in any
environment.

Ballast
(1) |
Ballast (A) delivers an instant high voltage pulse to the ignitor
electrode, to initialize discharge in the source.

(2) |
Ballast supplies the stable power to the bulb and the ignitor
during initialization and normal state of arc.
