BIO-UV40 Electronic Ballast 40-150W High Output
As a retailer of hot tub spare parts and pool equipment, I supply genuine BIO-UV replacement ballasts for UV water treatment systems. This high-output electronic ballast regulates power to UV lamps in the BIO-UV40 system, ensuring consistent germicidal performance.
Key Features
This 40-150W ballast provides precise electrical regulation for UV-C lamps, converting mains power into the specific voltage and current required for optimal lamp operation. Electronic ballasts offer instant lamp ignition, stable output despite voltage fluctuations, and superior energy efficiency compared to older magnetic designs.
The wide power range (40-150W) allows this ballast to accommodate different lamp configurations within the BIO-UV40 system specifications. It includes thermal protection circuitry to prevent overheating and may feature end-of-lamp-life detection that signals when UV lamp replacement is needed.
Compatible System
BIO-UV40 – Designed for large residential pools up to 40 cubic meters and light commercial installations requiring high-output UV sterilization.
When Replacement Is Needed
Ballast failure typically shows as: lamp fails to ignite, intermittent flickering during operation, dim lamp glow without full output, or electrical protection devices tripping. If the UV lamp has been tested and confirmed functional but won’t operate properly, the ballast is likely at fault.
Installation Considerations
This ballast mounts within the BIO-UV housing and connects to both mains power and the UV lamp assembly. Installation requires basic electrical knowledge and adherence to local electrical codes. The ballast must match the lamp wattage specifications for optimal performance and component longevity.
Genuine BIO-UV Component
Authentic BIO-UV ballasts are engineered specifically for their UV lamp specifications, ensuring proper electrical characteristics, reliable operation, and expected component lifespan. Generic ballasts may not provide the precise power regulation required for optimal germicidal effectiveness.

Maintaining UV System Performance
Regular maintenance of all UV system components – ballast, lamp, and quartz sleeve – ensures consistent water treatment. While ballasts generally outlast UV lamps, environmental factors like moisture, temperature extremes, or power surges can shorten their lifespan. Using genuine replacement components maintains the water treatment performance your BIO-UV system was designed to deliver
