Input Voltage and Ballast Type

This GE Lighting electronic ballast operates on a 347 V AC supply and carries the UltraMax P designation. It is built for fluorescent lighting systems that require instant start operation without dimming capability. The unit supports one or two lamps across several wattages.

Installers needing 347 V instant-start ballasts

The ballast suits commercial or industrial projects wired for 347 V where instant start and non-dimming operation are specified. It will not suit installations running on other input voltages, nor will it work with dimming controls or with lamp types that require rapid-start or programmed-start ballasts.

Supported Lamp Watts and Types

The ballast accepts T12 or T8 lamps rated at 15 W, 17 W, 25 W, 28 W or 32 W per lamp with a maximum total of 48 W. Minimum starting temperature is rated at minus 20 degrees F.
