LUMATEK 230V CMH bulbs

LUMATEK 315W CMH (ceramic metal halide) bulb also known as CDM or LEC is an pulse-start bulb, which is especially engineered for use with Lumatek's 315W CMH electronic ballast. It's high-grade ceramic arc tube technology and specific horticultural gas blend creates an optimal spectral output to promote healthy plant growth. CMH technology allows to create high energy PAR/PPF levels with low heat elimination at full spectrum, which is closer to sunlight. With a CRI (Colour Rendering Index) of >90%, the CMH is perfect for growing high quality crops.

The PCA ceramic arc tube allows the lamp to operate at higher internal temperatures, which increases the colour rendering, output and efficiency. PCA prevents interaction with the chemicals inside the tube to stabilize the chemical mix and extends the lifespan of the bulb, this improves the colour consistency and PAR/PPF level maintenance. The Pulse-start technology provides a faster start up & restrike time, longer lamp life-span and increased lumen maintenance.

LUMATEK 630W CMH DE (ceramic metal halide, double-ended) bulb also known as CDM or LEC is a high frequency pulse-start bulb, which is especially engineered for use with Lumatek's 630W DE CMH electronic ballast.  It's high-grade ceramic arc tube technology and specific horticultural gas blend creates an optimal spectral output to promote healthy plant growth. CMH technology allows to create high energy PAR/PPF levels with low heat elimination at full spectrum, which is closer to sunlight.

The Pulse-start technology provides a faster start up & restrike time, longer bulb life-span and increased lumen maintenance. Double-ended CMH lamps are more stable than traditional, single-ended Metal Halide (MH) lamps and this allows them to have an increase in light intensity and PAR/PPF output of up to 50% compared with similarly powered standard MH lamps.
