Metal Halide Bulb Tester

Screw tester into base lampholder and turn power.

Metal halide bulb tester.

To carry out this test is a simple process you should turn the multimeter to ohms settings and then you can make the meter indicate a direct shot by touching the ends of each. Will test a pulse start light fixture with an ignitor. Both testers fit in one belt loop. Metal halide lamps belong to a family of high intensity discharge hid lamps that includes mercury vapor and sodium vapor lamps.

Set your store to see local availability add to cart. A metal halide lamp has an arc tube in a brand new lamp that arc tube will be clear or clean looking. A ballast serves as a lamp starter and regulates power to the light. Will test a pulse start light fixture with an ignitor.

Like fluorescent lamps hid lamps produce light by the excitation of a gas confined between a pair of electrodes and require a ballast to limit current draw and to provide proper starting and operating voltages. Instructions are printed right on the hid light fixture tester. The ballast assembly consists of a transformer capacitor and lamp starter sized for the specific type of lamp. Used on hps high pressure sodium mh metal halide and mv mercury vapor types of lamp.
