The ignitor provides a high voltage potential to excite the sodium gas from the other terminal of the lamp connect a wire back to the neutral source. If the total amperage in your system is higher than the amount recommended for your application, you should install a ballast resistor. All wiring should be done by licensed electricians in high pressure sodium and metal halide with pulse start ballasts are limited by the type of ignitor supplied inside the ballast. Since there are obviously a lot more wires on the old connectors on the original fixture, how do i do this, or did i buy the wrong ballast? Once you got it on, it worked fine till you turned it off. I replaced the ballast and it still did the turning on intermittently thing. Do not use stranded wire or extension cord. All our sodium ballasts come with ballast, ignitor and mounting hardware.

Did you have any water damage to the ballast or how did you know to just change the ignitor?

In a fluorescent lighting system, the ballast regulates the current to the lamps and provides sufficient voltage to start the lamps.

There is a wiring (circuit) diagram on the transformer that i can't really understand but i'm sure if i have like 5 extra bulbs i might be able to fiddle with the wiring until i get the lamp connects to x1 and x2 on the ignitor. If the total amperage in your system is higher than the amount recommended for your application, you should install a ballast resistor. This article will introduce what is a ballast, how does the ballast work, its function, type, fault symptoms, and how to replace a broken ballast. Wiring is pretty straight forward as show in this diagram. This usually comes in the manual or written on the ballast enclosure. Recheck wiring and if ok, continue below. The wiring diagram shows three components connected to the lamp (the transformer, the capacitor, and the ignitor). I replaced the ballast and it still did the turning on intermittently thing.

First, if you have an external ballast resistor, connect the red ignitor™ wire to the ignition wire.

Also is the ballast meant to be wired onto the live line or nuetral line. Have wired it up following the diagram from on the ignitor, which along with the ballast are parmar. How does a light ballast work? (see detailed release instructions on page 79). A link to a thread (i did a search with is it only the ballast assuming electrical connections are ok? Did you have any water damage to the ballast or how did you know to just change the ignitor? Not yet can the ignitor cause the flickering or is it really the ballast someone please help me with this. The ballast will have a wiring diagram on it to show how to use it for single or two tube installations. Also, obtain a wiring diagram for the ballast. A summary of how a ballast works and how to trouble shoot hid ballasts. All 250w hps ballasts, 400w hps ballasts, 600w hps ballasts and 1000w ballasts also how do i choose the correct wattage for my hps ballast? Usually hidden from view, the ballast is installed inside an overhead fluorescent light unit, and is covered by a shield or plate. This will give you one.

I just removed an older, longer ballast and am attempting to wire in this new ballast. Not yet can the ignitor cause the flickering or is it really the ballast someone please help me with this. Metal halide, pulse start, high pressure sodium capacitors and ignitors/starters. How to correct a low voltage problem? The fixture is a single and the bulb is a t12 bulb, 20 long.

I recently bought a 400w ballast which says for high pressure sodium or metal halide lamp with external superimposed ignitor there's two slots to insert wires, one say 450v, the other my question is, do i still need more things, or is this ballast and the reflector enough? Without a ballast to limit its current, a fluorescent lamp connected directly to a high voltage power source would rapidly and uncontrollably.
