Ballast Operation

WARNING!

1) ALWAYS TURN OFF THE BALLAST BEFORE connecting or

disconnecting Lamps, Harnesses or Extension Cables.

2) Use only with Sine wave inverters. Do not operate on SCR dimmers.

3) If powering the ballasts through a Dimmer Pack, set the Dimmer to

Non-Dim mode.

The 120VAC Ballast requires 110 to 130 Volts AC 50/60 Hertz on an earth

grounded circuit; the 230VAC Ballast requires 220 to 240 Volts AC on an

earth grounded circuit. The electronic Ballast operates at a high frequency

of 25kHz. It is dead-quiet, instant-on and lightweight.

Load Considerations

Kino Flo ballasts are not power factor corrected. They will draw double the

current on the neutral from what is being drawn on the two hot legs. On large

installations, it may be necessary to double your neutral run so as not to

exceed your cable capacity.

Cold Temperature Operation

The Select Ballast series is designed to operate at temperatures from

14°F to 122°F (-10°C to +50°C). In cold temperatures, the Ballast may not

strike the lamp(s) instantly. Switch the Ballast to OFF, wait seven seconds

and try again. If the Ballast does not strike after two or three attempts,

turn off the Ballast, check that the Extension and Harness connections are

secure and re-strike. Once operating for a few minutes, the lamps should

re-strike instantly.
