Philips Lighting 913710891601 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Philips CENTIUM ICN2S ballast run on both 120V and 277V circuits?
Yes. The CENTIUM ICN2S is a universal-voltage electronic fluorescent ballast, accepting 120 to 277 V at 50 to 60 Hz. That means one part number covers both the 120V circuits typical of small commercial spaces and the 277V circuits common in larger buildings, so an MRO stockroom can carry a single ballast for both.
2) How many lamps will one CENTIUM ICN2S ballast drive?
One or two lamps per ballast, wired in series. Series lamp connection means both lamps go out if one fails or is removed, which is normal for this instant-start design and worth knowing before you troubleshoot a fixture where both tubes are dark.
3) Which lamp wattages does the Philips CENTIUM ICN2S ballast cover?
Three wattage builds are offered: 28W, 40W and 54W. Match the ballast to the lamp actually in the fixture, since a T5HO 54W lamp and a 28W T5 are not interchangeable on the same ballast build.
4) Will this Philips ballast fit in my existing fixture channel?
The housing measures 9.5 x 1.3 x 1.0 inches and is metal, in a Type N case. That is the standard small-can footprint most strip and troffer channels are prepped for, but measure the channel opening and the mounting hole centers on the old ballast before you pull it, since case length is what usually decides the swap.
5) Can I mount this ballast remotely away from the lamps?
Yes, remote wiring is allowed, with a maximum ballast to lamp distance of 20 feet. That covers remote-mounting in a cove, a sign cabinet, or an accessible ceiling location where the fixture itself is hard to service. Beyond 20 feet you will see starting problems, so keep the run within that limit.
6) Can I use this ballast in tandem or through-wire several fixtures on one run?
Both are permitted. The CENTIUM ICN2S supports tandem wiring, where one ballast serves lamps in two adjacent fixtures, and through wiring, where supply conductors pass through the ballast case to the next fixture in a continuous row. That is what makes it workable in long runs of strip lighting over warehouse aisles.
7) Is this Philips fluorescent ballast rated for outdoor or unheated locations?
It is suitable for outdoor use, with a maximum case temperature of 70 degrees C. Outdoor suitability here depends on the fixture enclosure doing its job, so it belongs in a gasketed or weatherproof housing, not exposed. Keep the case at or below 70 C measured at the hot spot on the ballast can.
8) Does this ballast meet commercial spec for power factor and harmonic distortion?
Nominal power factor is 0.98 and total harmonic distortion is 10 percent, which is what a drawing calling for a high power factor, low THD electronic ballast is asking for. Crest factor is 1.7 nominal. Those three numbers together are usually what an engineer checks off on a lighting schedule.
9) Do I have to cycle the breaker after replacing a lamp on this ballast?
No. Automatic restart means the ballast re-strikes on its own once a good lamp is installed, so a maintenance tech can swap a tube and walk away instead of going back to the panel. Handy on tandem-wired rows where the ballast may not be in the fixture you are working on.
10) Does the CENTIUM ICN2S ballast come with wire connectors or leads pre-terminated?
It ships with bare solid 18 AWG leads, no connectors and no terminals on either input or output. Strip length is 0.50/0.375, so you will need your own wire nuts or push-in connectors at both the supply and lamp ends. Factor that into the job material list.
11) Is this ballast quiet enough for an office or classroom?
Sound rating is Class A, the quietest of the ballast noise classes, which is what you want above desks, in classrooms, libraries and patient rooms where fixture hum gets noticed. Louder B and C rated ballasts are generally kept to shops and warehouses.
12) How does the Philips CENTIUM ICN2S ship for bulk relamping jobs?
Packed one ballast per pack, ten packs to an outer box. If you are re-ballasting a floor of fixtures, order in multiples of ten to get full cases rather than loose singles.
13) What approval does the Philips CENTIUM ICN2S ballast carry for Canadian jobs?
It holds a CSA certificate, which is the mark an inspector looks for on Canadian installations. Electromagnetic immunity follows the FCC Non-Consumer standard, the commercial rather than residential threshold.
