4. Nastavení
4.1. Vybalování
Carefully remove the bulb from its packaging. Inspect for any visible damage. Do not use if the bulb appears cracked or broken.
4.2. Instalace
- Ensure the power to the grow light fixture is turned off at the main switch.

5. Návod k obsluze
5.1. Počáteční spuštění
After installation, turn on the power. The bulb requires approximately 2-3 minutes to reach full brightness. During this warm-up period, the light intensity and color may fluctuate.
5.2. Re-strike Time
If the bulb is turned off, allow at least 5 minutes before attempting to re-strike it. Attempting to re-strike a hot HPS bulb too quickly can reduce its lifespan or prevent it from igniting.
5.3. Light Spectrum
The VIVOSUN 400W HPS bulb produces a red and orange spectrum light, which is ideal for stimulating flowering and fruiting stages růstu rostlin.


6. Údržba
6.1. Čištění
Ensure the bulb is cool and power is disconnected before cleaning. Gently wipe the glass envelope with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or liquids directly on the bulb.
6.2. Lumen Depreciation
Over time, all HPS bulbs experience a gradual decrease in light output (lumen depreciation). This VIVOSUN bulb is designed to maintain over 90% of its initial lumen output after 5,000 hours of operation. For optimal plant growth, consider replacing the bulb after approximately 12-18 months of continuous use, even if it still lights up.

6.3. Lamp Úmrtnost
The bulb has a rated lifetime of 24,000 hours. While designed for durability, factors such as frequent on/off cycles, improper voltage, or physical shock can affect its lifespan.

7. Řešení problémů
| Problém | Možná příčina | Řešení |
|---|---|---|
| Žárovka nesvítí | No power, incorrect wiring, faulty ballast, loose connection, damaged bulb. | Check power supply. Verify all wiring and connections. Ensure ballast is compatible and functional. Re-seat the bulb. Replace bulb if damaged. |
