III. Ballast Operation
This appliance must be installed directly into a single socket surge protector before being
connected to a 240V 10A General Power Outlet (Power Point). It must be a surge protector
- Circuit Breakers and Residual Current Devices (RCDs) are not suitable substitutes as
they do not protect the unit from power surges.
To guarantee user safety, this ballast features complete control and protection functions which are caused by.
1.
UV Lamp exceeding life cycle (365 Days).
2.
UV Lamp Failure.
3.
Working beyond rated voltage and load.
This ballast is designed to work with germicidal UV lamps. Do not mistake the input/output wire to avoid ballast
failure.
•
Ensure the voltage is within the specification of the ballast.
•
Match the UV lamp with the power output of the ballast.
•
Ensure the connections (plugs) are fitted correctly. Connect (screw) the
earth wire to the lug on the bottom of ballast (power source) as shown
(picture to the right). The earth wire must be affixed securely.
