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 BAL-457 Ballast requires 100-240VAC 50/60 Hertz on an earth
grounded circuit. The electronic Ballast operates at a high frequency of
25kHz. It is dead-quiet, instant-on and flicker-free.
Cold Temperature Operation
The DMX 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.
