The ballast is
heavy duty to resist damage. This cooler running, heavy duty, commercial quality
ballast is designed to last beyond the 5 year system warranty.
The
quieter noise reduced, industrial grade ballast is long lasting and trouble
free. The
cooler running extruded aluminum housing is designed to dissipate heat at an
improved rate. Compare to sheet metal housings that get very hot to the touch
and trap heat around the ballast that cause internal component failure. It is
quieter, noise reduced ballast.
The ballast utilizes a high tech heat sink, which doubles as the component
enclosure housing. It is ETL listed for safe operation, rated for damp location,
comes with a 6-foot power cord and has a 10-foot lamp cord. The heat-sink case
or housing that holds the components is made from extruded aluminum. In the
extrusion process fins are made. These fins help to transfer the heat from the
transformer to the air without the need for air vents. You will find fins like
these on high quality stereo gear and used there for the same purpose. You
should also note that these ballasts have not been painted. The painting of the
heat sink case or housing inhibits the heat transfer process dramatically. Other
manufactures that paint their air vent free ballasts for cosmetic reasons run
the risks of baking the components. Electrical components work better when they
run cool. We will never paint our ballasts. Six feet of heavy-duty power cord
and 10 feet of heavy-duty lamp cord are standard. The lamp cord comes complete
with a mogul socket and assembly to attach to all reflectors. The socket is
rated at 5kv and is universal.
