DIMMABLE DESIGN
This design can run a lamp at rated power and is composed of a four-phase controller to adjust the ballast
output to 190W, 245W, 315W or Super PAR, which will increase the brightness by 15%.
Be sure to run your lamp continuously at 100% for 10 minutes before switching to other settings. Fast swit-
ching of the parameters can affect the lamp.
STAGGERED IGNITION
When used in a group, when all ballasts are connected to the same power source (power strip, timer) or all controlled
by the digital controller, all ballasts are switched on simultaneously creating a consistent inrush current and genera-
ting a violent overcurrent. To reduce this inrush current, each CALITEK ballast will light randomly separately in 3 to
10 seconds, spreading the inrush current over a larger range.
PROTECTION MECHANISM
Entry protection :
High / low voltage; radiation / inrush / pulse group; overcurrent; power outage.
Output protection :
Open circuit; short circuit; end of the life of the lamp; breakdown ignition; surge; protection against the effects
of rectification.
Overheating protection :
In operation, internal heat will dissipate through the housing. When the temperature of the box reaches 85 ° C,
the ballast will gradually reduce the power to 80%; When the case temperature reaches 90 ° C, the ballast will
stop working until it cools down to 70 ° C, then returns to the full state of the supply.
SMART START ™ IGNITION CONTROL
This revolutionary feature, unique to our products, makes the CALITEK digital ballast the safest and most re-
liable ballast when used in multi-lamp automated applications. When multiple units are connected to the same
AC circuit, our integrated ignition control software will fully balance the electrical draw by lighting one lamp
at a time to avoid electrical surges and spikes that can overload the AC power and tripping circuit breakout
systems. trip circuit. For increased efficiency, this feature is enabled alongside our Soft Start Technology.
