LUMATEK Ultimate Pro 600W 400V ballast
LUMATEK Ultimate Pro 600W 400V ballast is a remote ballast designed specially for the hobby grower to access the benefits of using electronics to control and power both 400W/600W 240V MH/HPS or professional 600W 400V HPS horticultural bulbs. The ballast automatically detects the bulb connected to it. The 400V lamps are better than the 240V bulb usually used in the hobby indoor gardens due to their increased efficiency and greater PAR spectrum output. The Photosynthetic Active Radiation (PAR) indicates to the part of the light spectrum that plants actually use to photosynthesise and to grow vigorously.
The ballast, using microprocessor and software controlled electronics, operates on an ultra-high frequency at 120KHz (120,000 cycles per second) for 400V bulbs and 90KHz for 240V bulbs. For a comparison the regular conventional magnetic ballast operates only at 50Hz, making much less light available to the plants. The difference can be easily seen in the quality of light using the video camera on the phone, example try to film a light powered by a magnetic ballast (strobe flicker) and then by the Lumatek Pro ballast (solid light). This increased efficiency means that less power is lost from the power supply to the bulb. The high frequency output results in a low power loss at the cathodes in addition to better overall power management and energy efficiency. The ballast will as well detect power surges, short circuits, circuit-interruption, over-heating and switch off to prevent any damage to the lamp or the ballast. To protect against hot re-strike, the ballast will monitor and sense when the lamp is ready to be reignited and will then restart automatically. The ballast will also monitor and sense when the lamp is coming to the end of it's useable life and will not attempt to ignite it thus avoiding negative spectral and colour anomalies.
The ballast has an IEC connector and can connected to any regular reflector. This intelligent digital ballast can be easily integrated into your existing grow room - simply replacing the old ballast with the Lumatek Ultimate Pro 600W and it will automatically detect which type of lamp you are using and provide precise voltage required for optimum PAR spectrum output. If you are powering a 600W 400V grow lamp, you will instantly achieve more useable grow light and More light equals more yield!

LUMATEK Ultimate Pro 1000W 400V ballast
LUMATEK Ultimate Pro 1000W 400V ballast is their most powerful and intelligent 1000W ballast, which integrates the proven and reliable Lumatek technology with an addition of controlling capability. This ballast is developed to connect to 230V power supply and light 600W / 750W / 1000W 400V HPS grow lamps. Lumatek 1000W 400V Ultimate Pro ballasts are tested and compatible with 400V DE HPS bulbs from all leading manufacturers. The 400V grow lighting is now a standard in professional horticulture, because of the extra PAR/PFF (grow light) produced with greater efficiency and lower energy costs. Improved PAR Light ensures a constant and vigorous plant growth. More light = more yield!
Comparison testing has demonstrated up to 10% more PAR/PFF than standard horticultural lamps with improved PAR light maintenance levels. The Pro 400V series provide affordable professional grow lighting solutions to the indoor grow enthusiast. The new addition of controlling capability allows easily to monitor and regulate the grow room environment (Lighting timing, sunrise/sunset, digital 1% dimming, etc), by simply connecting the Lumatek's Digital Panel (sold separately) into the TRS “Link” port on your controllable ballast.
