Lumatek 1000W PRO (400V) Controllable digital ballast

Product detailed description

Lumatek 1000W PRO 400V Controllable ballast

The Lumatek 1000W PRO (400V) digital ballast is an electronic ballast (SKU LUMBC006) for 400 V double-ended (DE) HPS discharge lamps, with output adjustment and external control. It is designed for growers operating a powerful 400 V DE setup who want to control it via a Lumatek controller.

Output adjustment and 400 V operation

You select the output in steps of 600, 750 and 1000 W according to the discharge lamp and growing phase; the Super Lumen setting (1100 W) temporarily increases the output above the rated value. The ballast is powered from a standard 240 V socket (input 240 V, 50/60 Hz) and electronically generates the 400 V voltage for the double-ended discharge lamp at a frequency of 125 kHz. The 400 V designation therefore refers to the output for the discharge lamp, not the household socket. Fit the 400 V double-ended discharge lamp into the DE Lumatek Tekken Pro Hammertone reflector.

External control via a controller

The ballast has a TRS Link connector for connecting it to the Lumatek Digital Panel controller. This allows you to centrally set the output, timing and safety modes of multiple ballasts at once. Without a controller, the ballast operates with manual output selection. The product comes with a 5-year warranty.

Frequently asked questions

Which discharge lamps does the ballast power?
The Lumatek 1000W PRO (400V) ballast is designed for 400 V double-ended (DE) HPS discharge lamps. You can adjust the output in steps of 600, 750 and 1000 W, and it also has a 1100 W Super Lumen setting, so you can operate discharge lamps with a lower output than 1000 W. The maximum power consumption is 1050 W.

Can I plug it into a standard socket?
Yes. The input voltage is 240 V, 50/60 Hz (range 175-275 V), meaning a standard household socket. The ballast electronically generates 400 V for the double-ended discharge lamp at a frequency of 125 kHz. Connect the discharge lamp to the ballast, and the ballast to the mains via the IEC connector.

Do I need a controller for it?
Not necessarily. The ballast has its own manual output adjustment. However, you can connect a Lumatek controller via the TRS Link connector to add central control, timing and safety modes for the entire growing area - especially useful when using multiple ballasts. The ballast comes with a 5-year warranty.
