PowerPlant Heavy Duty
Timer -Powerplant Heavy Duty 24 Hour 15 Minute Grow Light Timer 600W Hydroponics
Normal household timers are not built to take the high
inductive loads produced by HID ballasts. If used with an HID ballast - the
contacts inside the timer that open and close the timed circuit will overheat
and weld together - breaking the timer and leaving your grow lights permanently
on.
The PowerPlant Heavy Duty Timer is different. It is designed
to take high loads and has no problem dealing with the inductive loads produced
by a 600w ballast.
This means no separate contactor is required and saves you
money. It has a 96 switching operations within a 24 hour period (every 15
minues).
This timer is suitable for timing one 600w HID ballast. It
has a robust case design with socket and timer dust/moisture covers.
This unit is ideal for timing 400w and 600w ballasts. Do not use more than one 600w ballast per timer.
