The Colossus Electronic Ballast is a ballast specifically created for double-cap lamps.

This ballast is suitable for HPS/400V and LEC 630 bulbs.

It has a controlled microprocessor that maintains the lamp’s lumen level for longer than traditional ballasts. Low start-up level at only 3 A per unit and IP43 protection. It is a unit that operates silently and is very light, and can be mounted on the wall. With thermal and circuit protection. Intelligent digital “soft-start” technology. In combination with the Solux 600 and 1000 W lamps, the best results are obtained.

Why choose electronic ballasts instead of traditional electromagnetic ballasts?

• Fast start-up. It reaches its maximum power in less than a minute, whereas electromagnetic ballasts take up to 20 minutes to reach full performance.
• Completely silent. You have to be very close to the ballast to hear a very weak sound.
• Compact and small design. A 600 ballast weighs less than 4 kilos compared to the 8 kilos of the electromagnetic ballast.
• It produces less heat.
• Safety circuit. To protect the ballast and the lamp from any damage.
• Extends the life of the lamp. The loss of lumens of the lamp over time is drastically less than that of a conventional ballast.
• Higher amount of lumens. From 20 to 30% more lumens than with an electromagnetic ballast. More lumens = More harvest.
• Adjustable light intensity. To adapt the light to the phenological state of the plants, Solux ballasts allow the light to be adjusted from 50% to 75%, 100% and 110% (Super Lumens).
