IMPORTANT:
Read and observe the directions in these instructions and the general safety and hazard notes
thoroughly before installation. Keep this leaflet in a safe place for consultation. If you have doubts
regarding the safety of the equipment please seek the advice of an expert. For use in a greenhouse or
a conservatory please ensure that the electrical connections are executed by qualified professionals
and that they are in line with current regulations.
1.
General
After unpacking and before initial operation please ensure that the equipment and all corresponding
accessories are in perfect condition. In the event that damage has been caused during transportation
please immediately contact the corresponding supplier or manufacturer. The packaging materials
(polybag, polystyrene, nails etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children as they represent potential
hazards.
A normal light bulb is quite unsuited as assimilation lighting (growth promotion) as it radiates a lot of
red light and thus causes the plants to 'shoot' in length. The SIRIUS X400 plant light was developed to
provide a professional light combination for the amateur greenhouse. The SIRIUS X400 lamp with its
high-pressure sodium vapour lamp (output 400 W) is designed so that a single lamp is sufficient for
the average size of an amateur greenhouse. In contrast to plant lamps that use light bulbs the SIRIUS
X400 provides the type and quantity of light required for healthy plant growth and also has low power
consumption levels. In the winter months there is a shortage of sunlight, especially in countries
between the fortieth and eightieth degree of latitude, which can now be bridged in an economical way
with a suitable lamp.
This equipment is only approved for connection to 230 V ~, 50/60 Hz alternating current. It must be
protected from heavy soiling and damp. Damage can be caused to the equipment or other hazards
such as short-circuiting, fire, electric shock etc caused if it is used in a different way to that described
above. It is essential that the safety and installation instructions be followed at all times.
When using a multiple socket or an extension cable please ensure that the maximum power capacity
is not exceeded.
