  • The ballast will activate the lamps according to the set lighting schedule.

6. Vedlikehold

Minimal maintenance is required for the ballast itself. Regular inspection is recommended:

  • Visuell inspeksjon: Periodically check the ballast and its wiring for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
  • Renslighet: Ensure the ballast compartment remains dry and free from dust or debris. Use a dry cloth to gently wipe the exterior if needed.
  • Lamp Erstatning: Hvis lamps fail, replace them with new 55W fluorescent lamps as recommended by Red Sea. A faulty lamp can sometimes affect ballast performance.
  • Erstatning: If the ballast shows signs of malfunction (e.g., flickering lights, failure to ignite lamps despite new lamps), it may need to be replaced.
