Thank you for purchasing the
PHMH601013/PHMH601014
. This Phantom Dual CMh System is a
highly versatile lighting system that allows you to operate a single 315W CMh lamp or both 315W
CMH lamps at the same time. The system can be used in a standard vertical configuration (see cover
image) or the reflectors can be rotated 90 degrees upward (and then the system turned so the
reflectors face down) to give a low-profile hanging configuration that is ideal for tight spaces. Two
intermediate reflector angles can also be set, for a total of four different configurations.
The reflectors feature multifaceted 95% reflective European hammertone aluminum, giving
excellent light uniformity and diffusion.
The attached Phantom Dual CMh 315W ballast features low frequency, square-wave technology and
is silent, reliable, and energy-efficient. It has two discrete channels and power switches, and a USB
port for Autopilot PX Series Lighting Controller compatibility. Input voltage options are 120V, 208V,
and 240V(120V power cord included with system).
For information on additional Phantom products please visit PhantomBallasts.com.
Supply power for the ballast is based on typical commercial or residential input. This ballast must be
used only with double jacketed 315W ceramic metal halide lamps for safety and proper operation.
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE BALLAST’S POWER CORD
BEFORE MOVING UNIT OR CHANGING LAMPS
WARNINGS
• Use this Phantom Dual CMh system indoors only. Position it in an area away from excessive
heat or contact with liquids.
• The ballast does not rely on the luminance enclosure for protection against accidental contact
with live parts.
• Disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance, lamp changes, or other
modifications.
• Opening the ballast will void the warranty.
• Do not use lamps of any type other than the 315W (T12 38 mm PGZX18 base) with this ballast.
Not for use with external ignitors.
• Do not use Hydrofarm’s TM01240 240V timer with this system. The TM01240 timer is not
designed for use with electronic ballasts, and using it may cause the ballast to fail.
• The CMh ballast included with this system is designed to be used with Hydrofarm power cords
ONLY. Using it with other power cords, or modifying the power cord, will void the warranty
