Use only original spare parts for repairs.
Use only original accessories.
Make worn-out Electronic Ballasts inoperable immediately. Then dispose of the

3. Product Description
The Electronic Ballast EB 4000 Booster is intended to be placed in a suitable 19"
Cabinet Rack or housing. It is suitable for professional indoor use (IP20 protection).
The Electronic Ballast EB 4000 Booster is part of an optimized lighting system along
with 4000 W metal halide lamps. The lamp will be supplied with controlled lamp power
and square wave current. In this way light emission will be flicker free and delivers
daylight on high
quality.
A special feature of EB 4000 Booster is the boost mode. For a period of max 20 sec. the
lamp power can be boosted up to 8000 W to achieve a higher light output.
After starting the EB the lamp will be ignited automatically. That will be indicated by
the yellow LED "Lamp on" on EB front plate. All control functions to the EB are given
by remote control
Note: The Electronic Ballast EB 4000 Booster meets the European Council Directive
89/336/EEC of electromagnetic compatibility. Over an extensive range limits of radio
disturbance characteristic B are fulfilled. But on principle it has to be classified under
characteristic A, group 1.
Although limits of radio disturbance characteristic A are prescribed for industrial areas
administrative authority can allow the use of equipment with characteristic A in other
than industrial areas (DIN EN 55011).
Compared to magnetic ballasts there are a number of advantages when operating
daylight-lamps with ARRI Electronic Ballasts:
Flicker free light
No synchronization of cameras necessary
Typical lightripple max. 3 %
Light intensity increased by at least 5 %
Constant lamp power
