Agrosun Red Sodium High Pressure Sodium (HPS) Lamp 600W 2050K
This document provides technical specifications and safety warnings for an electric discharge lamp, specifically the Agrosun Red Sodium High Pressure Sodium (HPS) Lamp. Users are cautioned to use the lamp with proper circuits and auxiliary equipment to avoid poor performance and potential injury or damage. Safety glasses and gloves are recommended during installation or removal. The lamp emits shortwave ultraviolet radiation, which can cause skin burns and eye inflammation if the outer envelope is compromised. Compliance with USA Federal Standard 21 CFR 1040.30 and Canada Standard SOR/80-381 is noted.
Auxiliary Equipment:
The lamp must be operated on ballasts and luminaires meeting ANSI specifications. External protection is required to prevent bulb breakage from water contact. The total supply load should include auxiliary watts in addition to lamp watts.
Technical Specifications:
- Performance Data: Rated initial lumens at 100 hours is 90,000, with a rated average life of 24,000 hours. The lamp has a Kelvin temperature of 2050K, CRI of 20, and a lumen output of 90,000. It provides 146 lumens per watt and a photosynthetic photon flux of 1100 µmol/s. Warm-up time is 3-4 minutes, and hot re-strike time is 4-5 minutes.
- Re-lamp Interval: Optimum growth is achieved at 6-8 months, average growth at 9-10 months, and maintenance growth at 10-12 months. The operating position is universal.
- Electrical Characteristics: The lamp wattage is 600W, requiring ANSI Ballast C78.42. It is rated for open fixtures.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Agrosun Red Sodium High Pressure Sodium (HPS) Lamp 600W 2050K ITEM CODE: BUSD600AG APPLICATIONS: Horticulture, controlled environment agriculture, daylight supplementation in greenhouse structures, aquaponics. DESCRIPTION: Agrosun Red Sodiums are the best choice for enhanced flowering, increased crop volume, and supplemental greenhouse lighting. Not only will they produce more, larger, and better flowers, but they will do it quicker than common sodium bulbs. Red Sodiums are recommended for situations where high output supplemental light is preferred. PERFORMANCE DATA ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION 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. AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT: 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. Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with disposal laws. lamprecycle.org Distributed by Hydrofarm, Inc.
