Agrosun Double-Ended HPS lamps are ideal for cultivation with high light intensity requirements. They provide high proportions of both red and blue light, which guarantees efficient, solid growth. Specifically designed for high frequency electronic ballasts, their high output of PAR light (2100 μmol/s) promotes photosynthesis. Made in the EU.
Lamps must be operated on ballasts and luminaires that meet all applicable ANSI specifications. External protection for the lamp is required to minimize bulb breakage due to water contact during lamp operation. For the total supply load, add auxiliary watts to lamp watts. NOTICE: If outer bulb is broken, care must be taken to avoid contact with the arc tube support to avoid electrical shock hazard. Power should be off and lamp cool during replacement.
Applications: Horticulture, Controlled environment agriculture, Daylight supplementation in greenhouse structures, Livestock photoperiod management, Aquaculture, Algaculture.
CAUTION: This is an electric discharge lamp. Use only with proper circuits and auxiliary equipment. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in poor performance and possible personal injury or property damage for which the lamp manufacturer will not be responsible. Do not scratch glass bulb or subject lamp to undue pressure as either may cause the lamp to break. Wear safety glasses and gloves when installing or removing lamp.
WARNING: This lamp can cause serious skin burn and eye inflammation from shortwave ultraviolet radiation if outer envelope of the lamp is broken or punctured. Do not use where people will remain for more than a few minutes unless adequate shielding or other safety precautions are used. This lamp complies with USA Federal Standard 21 CFR 1040.30 and Canada Standard SOR/80-381.

What type of cultivation is the Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb designed for?
The Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb is designed for cultivation requiring the highest light intensity. Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb applications include horticulture, controlled environment agriculture, greenhouse daylight supplementation, aquaculture, algaculture, and livestock photoperiod management.
How does the Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb support plant growth?
The Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb produces 2,100 μmol/s of PAR light and high proportions of red and blue light. Red light supports photosynthesis and plant development, while blue light supports robust, compact plant structure.
Which ballast and fixture work with the Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb?
The Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb requires a high-frequency 1000W electronic ballast and a compatible luminaire meeting applicable ANSI specifications. The Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb uses a double-ended K12x30S base and horizontal operating position.
How long does the Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb last, and when should growers replace the bulb?
The Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb has a rated average life of 10,000 hours. Recommended re-lamp intervals are 12 to 16 months for optimum growth, 16 to 20 months for average growth, and 20 to 24 months for maintenance growth.
What operating and safety requirements apply to the Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb?
The Agrosun 1,000 Watt Double-Ended HPS Bulb requires external protection against water contact during operation and must be operated with proper circuits, ballasts, and luminaires. Wear safety glasses and gloves during installation or removal, and provide adequate shielding or other safety precautions where people remain nearby.
