Frequently Asked Questions

What is the function of a fluorescent lamp ballast?

A ballast regulates the current to the fluorescent lamp, providing the high initial voltage needed to start the tube and then limiting the current to maintain stable, safe operation.

Are these ballasts suitable for 220V marine electrical systems?

Yes, the ballast is compatible with both 110V and 220V AC systems, making it versatile for vessels operating on different international power standards.

Can this ballast be used with LED replacement tubes?

No, this is specifically designed for fluorescent tubes. If you intend to use LED tubes, you may need to bypass the ballast or use a dedicated LED driver.

Is the ballast protected against overload?

Yes, it includes thermal overload protection and short-circuit protection to ensure safe operation on board.
