Gavita Balastro Digistar 400e E-Series – Balastro Electrónico Regulable 400W HPS y MH

Frequently asked questions

• What is the Gavita Digistar 400e E-Series?

  It is a 400 W electronic ballast for HPS and MH lamps, designed for domestic and professional installations at 220-230 V. Its sealed housing and plug-and-play connection let you mount it and get it running without touching any internal wiring.

• Can the output be dimmed?

  Yes, it has a built-in dimmer, so you can adjust the power level without swapping units. That is useful for starting off gently at the beginning of the cycle and turning it up later.

• What is the E-Series RJ14 bus for?

  It lets you daisy-chain this ballast with other E-Series units and control them all from a single point. It is the basis of centralised control across the range, something you will appreciate as soon as you have more than one ballast installed.

• Which controller does it work with?

  It is controlled by a Gavita Master Controller EL2 or EL2F. From the controller you programme cycles, start-up ramps and power levels without having to touch each ballast individually.

• Is it complicated to install?

  No. The housing is sealed and the connection is plug and play, so there is no internal wiring to handle in order to get it running. It works just as well for a home setup as for a professional installation.

• Is the weight shown on the product page the official one?

  We would rather be upfront: Gavita does not publish an official weight for this part number, so the figure you see is an estimate still to be confirmed against the delivery note. If that detail matters for your installation, write to us and we will verify it with you.
