in order to avoid product damage during shipping. Any damage to products not in
their original packaging will not be covered under warranty.
SAFETY FIRST! Failure to observe the following safety warnings may result in
serious injury. In addition, failure to observe these safety warnings will result in a
waiver of all liabilities and will void all warranties.
WARNING
	 	If the exterior of the lamp is damaged, replace lamp immediately.
	 	When re-lamping, make sure lamp has time to cool before touching.
	 	Make sure reflector sockets are in the closed position—properly securing
the lamp.
	 	Make sure power cord and lamp cord are connected properly.
	 	Disconnect power before re-lamping.
		DO NOT hang by power or lamp cord.
	 	DO NOT make contact with the interior of the socket while power is on.
	 	DO NOT operate light systems in wet locations.
	 		
DO NOT plug system into supply voltage other than what is designated on ballast.
	 		
DO NOT attempt to rewire or reconfigure your system, it will void warranty and
could cause serious safety hazards (i.e. power cord, lamp cord, lamp socket or ballast).
	 	Keep away from children.

SAFETY FIRST!
			
DO NOT alter or modify this unit in any way. It may cause bodily injury or
death as this is a high power electrical device.
		DO NOT submerse in water or splash water on the unit.
		DO NOT plug or unplug the lamp cord while the ballast is energized.
These high performance, high frequency Electronic Ballasts are extremely efficient.
They have a high power factor and high luminous efficacy. It’s stable performance
creates constant power output even when power fluctuates (power surge). Short circuit
protection technology prevents damage to the lamp and other ballasts connected
to the same circuit.
1. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
	 		
DO NOT alter or modify the electronic ballast in any way.
Not only may it damage the unit, it will void the warranty.
	 		
Lamp power rating must match electronic ballast power rating.

double-ended lamps.
	 		
This unit offers short-circuit and power fluctuation.

240V WIRING - VERY IMPORTANT! All digital ballasts may malfunction if the
240V circuit has a neutral. The input for the ballast is 2 HOT WIRES and 1 GROUND
WIRE. If you are using a light controller ONLY bring a ground wire and two hot leads
from your electrical panels.
HOT RESTRIKE - It is VERY IMPORTANT that the lamp is given adequate time
to cool down before it is reignited. You should allow a hot lamp to cool for 20-30
minutes before you try to restrike it. Hot restrikes cause permanent lamp failure and
lumen output degradation. Additionally, the lamp should never be turned off before
the lamp reaches full intensity.

LAMP REPLACEMENT - Be sure to disconnect the power source before
changing lamps. Always use the specified wattage lamp. (A 400W lamp should
not be used in the 600W setting).
MOUNTING LOCATION - DO NOT install ballasts in areas of high heat, such
as an attic or a closed closet. DO NOT mount the ballast to the reflector or blow
exhaust air over them. DO NOT stack ballasts on top of each other. DO NOT allow
contact with water. Mount units at least six inches apart. If a unit has any leaking
resin, please relocate to a cooler area or place a fan near the ballasts.
TIMER BOX - If you are connecting a 240V ballast to a timer box, please make
sure that it cuts off both legs when timer is switched off. If you continue to supply
120V to your ballast when the timer is switched off, it may damage your ballast.
HPS/MH - The ballasts operate both metal halide and high pressure sodium lamps.
They will not light mercury vapor lamps.
LAMP RECOMMENDATIONS - The ballasts are designed to provide superior
performance with several lamps manufactured to American specifications. There
are several brands of lamps available for the U.S. market that were made according
to European specifications. We do not recommend using these types of lamps,
since they will provide inconsistent performance with your ballast.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Follow the troubleshooting tips below. If troubleshooting techniques fail, bring
ballast back to your place of purchase to request warranty service.
POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
LAMP LOOSE
IN SOCKETS
INCORRECT
VOLTAGE
DEFECTIVE
OR IMPROPER
WIRING

Make sure that the lamp is fully inserted into the sockets and that the
sockets are in the closed position.
Make sure you are using the correct input voltage with ballast. If using
incorrect voltage, disconnect the ballast from the power source immediately.
Examine wiring to ensure it agrees with wiring diagrams on ballast label.
Check connections to see that they are secure. If wiring a 240V ballast,
DO NOT use a neutral. The correct wiring is two hot wires and a ground.

POOR ELECTRICAL Check wiring and lamp contact with socket. Make sure the lamp cord is

firmly seated in output receptacle.
INCORRECT

LAMP
DAMAGE

Verify that you are using a 1000W double ended lamp. Lamps manufactured
according to European or Asian specifications will not provide consistent
performance.
Investigate possibility of outer bulb damage.
Look for broken tubes or loose metal parts. Replace lamp.
