Our goal at p l.
Pl light systems ballast.
Next generation grow lighting harnessing the full potential of led technology.
The pl light systems hps double ended lamps function optimally when the ambient temperature is between 20 30 celsius.
We offer a complete range of innovative horticultural lighting products across a variety of technologies.
Designed for maximum flexibility the hortiled top 2 0 delivers optimal photometric performance either as a full led solution or in combination with hid luminaires as a hybrid lighting system.
The led pll lamp is the easy way to upgrade downlights and commercial luminaires to the energy saving benefits of led via a simple ballast bypass.

What is a ballast.
In a fluorescent lighting system the ballast regulates the current to the lamps and provides sufficient voltage to start the lamps.
A solution for every application.
Our systems are designed to deliver optimal lighting performance for plant growth and are built to the highest quality of production.
Without a ballast to limit its current a fluorescent lamp connected directly to a high voltage power source would rapidly and uncontrollably increase its current draw.
A seamless replacement for 40 watt cfl tubes the led lamp consumes 50 percent less energy and lasts twice as long as its fluorescent counterpart.
As such we have developed a range of useful resources which you can access here 24 7.
Rather than pre heat the electrodes the ballast uses a high voltage boost around 600 volts to heat and light the filaments and then the mercury gas.
Direct replacement for pl l 40w lamp no new ballast required instant start ballast on instant start ballast a standard pl l 40w only draws 32 watts so the actual savings is 7 watts 32w 25w 7w.
These ballasts were developed so lights could be turned on and operated at their brightest at the first flick of the switch.
Light systems is to be a true partner throughout the project and beyond.
