PHILIPS ELECTRONICS -LIGHT 510636 Optanium Fluorescent Ballast Electronic Instant Start 2 Lamps 32 W F32T8 Fluorescent Lamps 347 V,

Philips Advance fluorescent electronic and magnetic ballasts are designed and manufactured to engineering standards correlating to an average life expectancy of 50,000 hours of operation at maximum rated case temperature. Since Philips Advance ballasts operate below their maximum case temperature in the majority of applications, increased ballast life can be expected. As a rule of thumb, ballast life may be doubled for every 10°C reduction in ballast case operating temperature. However, there are many variables, such as input voltage, ambient temperature, etc. which affect ballast operating temperatures, and therefore ballast life. Optanium ballasts for T5 and T8 lamps are part of our effort to promote environmental responsibility through Smart Solutions™ - energy efficient products, lighting systems, services and expertise through Philips Advance branded products. They are also one of the charter products of the NEMA Premium® Ballast Program.
