HID Ballasts

CMH lamps have an excellent broad light spectrum, closer to that of the sun than any other HID lamp and are known to increase essential oil production in plants.

As well as normal full growth and flower functions, the unit’s wide spectrum makes it useful as supplemental full spectrum light for larger scale flowering operations.

The Cultiv8 315 watt CMH Pro+ Kit includes the following;

  Instruction Manual

This ballast is for use with 630W DE CMH lamps.

For safety this ballast uses full circuit protection including open/short circuit, over temperature, over/low voltage, end of lamp life/rectification and EMI suppression.

Instruction Manual

The Lumatek Utopia 630W/600W DE CMH/HPS  controllable fixture uses the latest in microprocessor-controlled electronics, to power both high-voltage CMH and HPS grow lamps – which are the most efficient HID light source for horticulture farming – allowing for both possibilities without additional expense.

Designed for use in climate-controlled grow rooms, tents & greenhouses, the Utopia is an integrated all in one fixture with a hybrid digital ballast linking to a double-ended (DE) lamp holder in a premium 97% reflective hammer-tone alanod aluminium focal reflector.

The Utopia 630W/600W fixture/ballast can drive both high or low voltage 600W HPS and 630W CMH DE grow lamps. Reducing the need for different ballasts/fixtures for each light source and thus reducing cost and maximising efficiency and flexibility to all growers.

  Instruction Manual

With the help of a HID extension cable, the Utopia fixtures ballast can also be disconnected from the reflector and used remotely for more flexibility.

The Utopia fixture is both manually dimmable and can be externally controlled using the Lumatek Control Panel for up to 400 fixtures per controller unit, with automated and temperature-controlled dimming and safety protection for even greater precision, assurance and control.
