INFORMATION and OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

These ballasts equipped with a dual voltage receptacle arrangement which allows the simple change between using 120 volt input power or 240 volt input power. Each system comes standard with the 120 volt power cord.

Warm up &Restart time: Once your unit is on, the bulb will require a few minutes to reach full brightness. Also, in the event of a momentary power interruption, the bulb will not restart immediately.

It May Require 10-30 Minutes Cooling time Before Restarting

Note: Some variations in the color of the light emitted by your bulb are not unusual, especially during the first 100 hour of operation.

Unplug Fixture and Allow to Cool Before Touching or Moving

Electrical Usage: To figure how much amperage you unit is using simply use the following formula: Wattage + Voltage = Amperage. The average household circuit breaker is rated at 20 amps. If the total amperage drawn from that circuit approaches 20 amps, the circuits per room. If you have a 1000W unit running off a 120 volt circuit, it will draw approximately 9 amps. For the cost of electricity to run your grow light, we recommend that you check with your local power company. Since the cost will vary depending on the geographical area.

A 1000W light will probably  cost 10c per hour to operate. Make sure your household circuits or fuses are in good condition and are rated at least 33% over what the load will be (e.g. no more than 15 amp load on a 20 amp circuit). Drawing too much current can overheat the wiring due to low voltage or insufficient amperage in that household circuit. Extension cords should not be used with the systems.

Bulb Replacement

Halide bulbs should be replaced after approximately 1-1 1/2years of continuous use (16-hour days). Sodium bulbs should be replaced after approximately 2 years of use. At these points, light output and electrical efficiency have decreased so that replacement is recommended. Do not run bulbs continuously beyond their rated lives. Always unplug your system and allow bulb to cool before changing  the light bulb.

Multi-Voltage Units

All ballast units for light systems that are 400w or higher, have multi-volt capability. This is typically only used in larger commercial quantity size installations. For operation at input voltages other than normal household current (120 volt), we recommend consulting a licensed electrician or shop that specializes in electrical work for proper wiring and plug changeover.

 Follow all the reflector assembly instructions and install the bulb into the socket before plugging in your new connector or power supply cord. Simply plug the end from the reflector into the receptacle in the ballast enclosure. Firmly push in on it so that it is seated all to the base of the receptacle. If you have any questions please contact the place of purchase. DO NOT plug anything except the designated fixture and bulb into the proper ballast enclosure.

Some Precautions

  • Do not touch the power supply when it’s plugged in.
  • Always unplug the ballast from the outlet and allow to cool when moving or replacing parts on your light.
  • Never pull the cord to unplug the system. Pull the plug only.
  • Small pieces of glass or metal inside a high intensity bulb are not a sign of trouble. This is common with high intensity bulbs. Don’t be concerned unless the bulb does not work.
  • Do not try and move the ballast by pulling the cord- use the handle.
  • Do not run a bulb beyond recommended replacement schedule- use Bulb Replacement
  • Do not look directly into the bulb during star up or operation.
  • Avoid scratching your bulb, subjecting it to under pressure, or getting it wet when it’s wet when it’s hot, as any of these could cause it to break.
  • We recommend a lens for all light systems in areas where water is being used.
  • In the event of bulb breakage, shut off power immediately to prevent exposure to ultraviolet energy, which may be harmful to eyes and skin.
  • Protect the bulb and ballast away from water & moisture. Don’t mist plants unless your bulb is behind the protective lens.
  • Always make sure there is adequate air circulation (use a fan) in your growing area. Keep the room temperature below 90*F.
  • If your growing area is extremely warm or if you need to increase air circulation, fan options are available for your light. Check with your retailer for more information.
  • Your plants should be for enough away from the bulb to prevent heat damage. If the leaves wilt or show other signs of burn damage, the light is too close. Usually about 2-3 feet is right for a 1000W light. Less distance is allowable for lower wattages.
  • Use caution when moving your plants from lower light situations (window or fluorescents) to a high intensity halide or sodium. They can get sunburned. Keep the light an extra foot away and increase the number of hours of exposure over a couple of days.
  • Always use a heavy duty three-prong grounded timer, rated for at least 15 amps. Many 7-day digital timers are not rated for 1000W lights.
  • Each ballast will operate only on a specific wattage and type of light--- do not interchange it with any different wattage or other type of light. Interchange only between  identical units with units unplugged.

TROUBLESHOOTING

  1. 1.        Check your electrical source. Make sure the unit is plugged in properly and that the breaker is not tripped or the fuse blown. (The ballast should hum slightly if it’s receiving electricity.)
  2. 2.        Check your grounded timer--- plug the unit directly into your outlet.
  3. 3.        Unplug the unit and make sure the lamp is screw in all the way.
  4. 4.        If you have another working identical unit, unplug it and interchange bulbs to identify the faulty part.
  5. 5.        Make sure you have given the unit plenty of time to restart (15—30 minutes)If it was turned off.
