UV ballast is a power supply that limits the current of the UV UV lamp and ignites it and, depending on the model, signals its operation.

What does UV ballast mean in practice?

The electronic system starts the UV lamp, stabilizes its current and often signals a failure or expiration of the operating period.

When does it matter?

The power supply must match the power and type of the UV lamp; a seemingly matching connector does not guarantee correct operating parameters.

Which solutions are related to it?

An original or confirmed replacement is selected, a dry place is provided and the alarm is diagnosed together with the UV lamp and cables.
