  • Page 1 INSTRUCTIONS 315W CERAMIC METAL HALIDE E-BALLAST PHBC3150...

  • Page 2: Definition Of Terms

    INSTRUCTIONS Thank you for your purchase of the Phantom CMh ballast (PHBC3150). Supply power for the ballast is based on typical commercial or residential input. This ballast should be used only with the matching 315W ceramic metal halide lamp to achieve the highest e ciency, safety, luminosity, and proper operation.
  • Page 3 INSTRUCTIONS • CF (Crest Factor) – A measurement of how “clean” the ballast power output wave is. A perfectly clean output sine wave would have a CF of 1.414. Given that some harmonics must exist in an electrical system, the crest factor must always be higher than 1.414. Therefore, the closer the ballast is to a CF of 1.414, the easier it is on the lamp.
