Load Considerations:
Kino Flo ballasts are not power factor corrected. They will draw double the
current on the neutral from what is being drawn on the two hot legs.
On large installations it may be necessary to double your neutral run so as not
to exceed your cable capacity.
Cold Temperature Operation
The Select Ballast series is designed to operate at temperatures from 14F
to 122F (–10C to +50C). In cold temperatures, the Ballast may not strike the
lamp(s) instantly. Switch the Ballast to OFF, wait seven seconds and try again.
If the Ballast does not strike after two or three attempts, turn off the Ballast,
check that the Extension and Harness connections are secure and re-strike.
Once operating for a few minutes, the Lamps should re-strike instantly.
