Future Brite Ballast Extremely efficient, the Future Brite Ballast is compact, quiet and lightweight. Electronic H.I.D. ballasts are quickly growing in popularity. They operate using electronic circuitry instead of magnetic ballasts made from steel & copper. Traditionally, coil or magnetic ballast designs were the only option for High Intensity Discharge (H.I.D.) lighting systems. Today, High Efficiency Electronic Ballasts improve lighting quality while reducing ENERGY use by up to 37%. Quietly lights both MH and HPS lamps and generates very little heat. Constant wattage output produces near perfect illumination (no flickering) and improves lamp life by 3 times. Includes a detachable power cord, and two year warranty on the 400 watt & 600 watt ballast and a one year warranty on the 1000 watt ballast. Unique Features: • Power factor is 99% efficient and reduces energy use by up to 37%.
• Silent operation with built-in axial fans for cooling. • Can ignite both MH & HPS lamps. • Built-in safety features. • Built-in short circuit protection. • Improves lamp life by 3 times. • Constant wattage output. No flickering (stroboscopic effects), resulting in perfect illumination. • Soft starting - No start-up power spikes. • Weighs significantly less than magnetic core ballasts. • Built-in fuse protection. • Two built-in fuses. • Thermal overload protection. • Sleep mode function for safety. • These ballasts are voltage specific. They are either 120 or 240. They cannot be switched from one voltage to another.
These come wired with Sun System's standard female lamp cord receptacle that accept Sun System's proprietary, patented male lamp cord making these units compatible with all Sun System® reflectors. Socket assembly and lamp cord sold separately (compatible with Sun System's Cords).
