Philips Lighting 913710852301 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What lamps does the Philips CENTIUM ICN-P32N35I ballast run?
It drives F32T8 lamps at 32 W rated lamp power, and it's offered in 1, 2, 3, and 4 lamp configurations. Pick the lamp-count version that matches the number of tubes in the fixture, because the lamps run in parallel on this ballast, so one failed tube does not take the rest down with it.
2) Can I use this T8 ballast on both 120V and 277V circuits?
Yes. The CENTIUM electronic T8 ballast accepts any input from 120 to 277 V at 50 to 60 Hz, so the same part works on a 120 V tenant space and a 277 V commercial lighting panel. That's the reason maintenance departments standardize on it across a mixed-voltage building instead of stocking two ballasts.
3) Will this ballast fit in my existing fluorescent fixture channel?
The metal housing measures 9.5 x 1.3 x 1.0 inches, which is the standard small can profile most 4-foot strip and troffer channels are punched for. Measure the channel opening against those three numbers before ordering, since housing type N ballasts mount in the channel rather than remote-mounted enclosures.
4) Is this an instant start or programmed start ballast, and does it matter?
Instant start, with an ignition time of about 0.1 seconds. Instant start gives the lowest input watts and fastest strike, and it suits spaces where the lights run long hours on a fixed schedule. If your fixtures are on occupancy sensors that cycle them dozens of times a day, programmed start is the better choice for lamp life; instant start is not the part for that application.
5) Can I mount this ballast remotely from the lamps?
Remote wiring is allowed. The maximum ballast to lamp distance is 20 feet in standard wiring and 6 feet for energy-saving wiring. That covers sign cabinets, cove lighting, and cases where the ballast has to sit outside the fixture for heat or access reasons. Run the leads within those limits or lamps will start unreliably.
6) Can this fluorescent ballast be used outdoors or in an unheated area?
It's rated suitable for outdoor use, in a suitable enclosure, with a maximum case temperature of 70 C. The 70 C figure is the limit at the hot spot on the housing, so in a parking canopy or a closed sign box check that the fixture is not driving the can past that point.
7) Do the lights come back on by themselves after a lamp is replaced or power drops?
Yes, automatic restart is built in. After a lamp change or a power interruption the ballast re-strikes on its own, so a maintenance tech doesn't have to cycle the wall switch or the breaker after swapping a tube.
8) How do I wire this ballast, and does it come with connectors?
Hard wire only. The CENTIUM ballast ships with no input or output terminals and no connector, so you're landing bare leads with wire nuts. Leads are solid 18 AWG. Strip length is 0.50/0.375, and the lead color code and lengths are on the Philips spec sheet linked with the product.
9) Will this ballast hum in a quiet office or classroom?
Sound rating is A, the quietest class for fluorescent ballasts. That's what you want in offices, classrooms, libraries, and patient rooms where a B or C rated ballast becomes an audible complaint.
10) How does this T8 ballast ship, individually or in a case?
Each ballast is packed one per pack, with 10 packs to an outer box. So a full case is 10 ballasts, which is the usual way a property maintenance shop or electrical contractor buys them for a relamp.
11) What approvals does the Philips CENTIUM T8 ballast carry?
It holds a CSA certificate, and the EMC immunity standard is FCC Non-Consumer, meaning it's built for commercial and industrial installations rather than residential RF limits.
