American Agriculture Metal Halide Ballast

American Agriculture Metal Halide Ballast inside view Great for horizontal or vertical lighting systems.socket is 5kv, universal, for all HID lamps, even horizontal only lamps with base pins. close up shows slot the pin slides into.

The ballasts manufactured by American Agriculture are ETL (Edison Testing Laboratories) listed to assure top performance. Only top quality components are used. The heat-sink case or housing that hold 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 used for the same purpose. Ballasts are unpainted, because painting of the heat sink case or housing dramatically inhibits the heat transfer process. 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.

Six feet of heavy-duty power cord and fifteen feet of heavy-duty lamp cord are standard. The lamp cord comes complete with a mogul socket and assembly that attach to all Control Wizard Products reflectors. The socket is rated at 5kv and is universal, so any HID lamp will screw in, even horizontal only position oriented lamps with base pins. A close up of the ceramic socket shows the slot the pin slides into. America Agriculture Medal Halide Ballast comes in both 120 and 240-volt applications.
