Overview
The Philips Advance ICN-2S110-SC Centium electronic ballast is a compact, high-performance fluorescent ballast engineered for 2-lamp, rapid-start T12 high-output applications. Rated for 120–277V input at 0.69–1.6A, this ballast handles F48T12HO, F60T12HO, F72T12HO, and F96T12HO lamps with a normal ballast factor and <10% THD, making it ideal for retrofit and new installations in industrial, commercial, and facility lighting environments.
