Product Description
Replacement lamp cords for Sun Systems configured for MVP. After more than a year of development and testing, Sunlight Supply is proud to introduce it’s newest feature – the MVP Multi Volt Powercord (Patent Pending) . The MVP is designed for switching from 120V to 240V operation by simply selecting the appropriate detachable power cord and plugging it in to the ballast. That is, all Sun System ballasts built with our new switchable MVP technology can be run on either a 120 volt system or a 240 volt system simply by switching the power cord! Our patent pending technology allows the power cord to only make connection with the appropriate voltage of the power cord you select. This innovative UL Listed single receptacle technology is completely safe and easy to use. The CWA (Constant Wattage Autotransformer) utilizes a single COMMON wire, which is common to all taps on the ballast. Also, when any tap on the ballast is energized, all taps become energized to that potential. For example, when a system is plugged into 120V, the unused 240V tap is still energized to approximately 240V. Rewiring the ballast from 120V to 240V only requires the change of a single wire. Additionally there is a required change on the opposite side of the power cord, which is changing the plug from a standard 120V plug (NEMA 5-15P) to a standard 240V plug (NEMA 6-15P) . This sounds simple, but in reality it is not that easy. This requires replacing the 120V power cord for a 240V power cord in most cases. We designed our MVP to reduce the hassle, expense and potential safety hazards. STEP 1 – UNPLUG 120 VOLT POWER CORD STEP 2 – PLUG IN 240 VOLT POWER CORD THAT’S IT!
