IN A GROW ROOM SETTING
We recommend using the rachet/carabiner method of hanging.
1. Install two eye screws or J-hook screws (not included) approximately 24" apart in a stable
ceiling or structural surface. If available, ceiling joists are best. If you can't use joists, insert
expansion anchors into the ceiling. Be sure to use anchors and hooks rated to hold at least
50 lbs each.
2. Tie the ends of the hangers' lines to your hooks in the ceiling, then hook the carabiners
through the eye bolt in the ballast housing (1) and the hole in the armature nose (2).
3. Adjust the hanging height of the fixture to your desired height using the rachet. We
recommend our Hydrofarm heavy Duty Light Riser (item HLH1002).
• The lamp may require 10–30 minutes cooling time before restarting.
• After you plug the reflector in, the bulb may require several minutes to reach its full brightness.
In the event of a momentary power interruption, the bulb will not restart immediately.
• Some variation in the color of light emitted by the bulb is not unusual, especially in the first
100 hours of operation.
• Never pull the cord to unplug the reflector, pull the plug only.
• Avoid scratching the bulb, subjecting it to undue pressure, or getting it wet when it is hot;
these actions may cause the bulb to break.
• In the event of bulb breakage, immediately unplug the reflector to prevent exposure to
ultraviolet energy, which may be harmful to eyes and skin.
• Keep room temperature below 95°F, with adequate air circulation by fan in the growing area.
• The DE lamp produces very high-intensity light and was originally designed for commercial
growing operations. Please take care to consider proximity to plants when installing your
fixture. You may want to allow more vertical space between the plant canopy and the fixture
to mitigate the high-intensity light and heat in the plant area.
• Always use a heavy-duty 3-pronged grounded timer, rated for at least 15 amps. Many 7-day
digital timers are not rated for 1000W lamps. Unplug ballast when changing or removing the
lamp. Failure to do so can cause ballast failure or improper diagnosis.
