Product Overview

The Philips Advance Centium ICN-2TTP40-SC is the industry standard ballast for 40W long compact fluorescent lamps with 2G11 4-pin bases. IntelliVolt technology automatically senses and operates across 120–277V without voltage-specific configuration, simplifying procurement and installation across mixed-voltage facilities.

Lamp Striation Reduction (LSR) technology eliminates the visible swirling effect that can appear in energy-saving CFL tubes, ensuring a clean and professional appearance in high-visibility commercial environments. Instant start operation delivers immediate full output without warm-up delay, suited for high-traffic areas such as lobbies, hallways, and open offices. The compact SC-can housing at 9.5" integrates into shallow troffers, recessed downlights, and wall sconces utilizing 40W twin-tube lamps.

Note on start method: Instant start does not preheat lamp cathodes, which may reduce lamp life in high-switching applications. For occupancy sensor installations with frequent cycling, a programmed rapid start ballast is preferred.

Compatible Lamps

(1–2) FT40W/2G11 — Standard 40W long compact fluorescent, 4-pin 2G11 base
(1–2) FT40W/2G11/ES — Energy-saving variant
(1–2) FT40W/2G11/RS — Rapid start style CFL

Compatible Applications

2×2 troffers and recessed downlights — Compact SC-can housing fits shallow fixture designs using 40W twin-tube lamps.
Wall sconces and architectural fixtures — Reliable instant start operation for decorative and functional commercial luminaires.
Healthcare, education, and retail — Designed for professional environments requiring stable, high-quality CFL performance.
Retrofit and maintenance replacement — Universal voltage input fits 120V and 277V commercial circuits.

Before Ordering — Verify

Lamp Type: Confirm your lamps are FT40W with 2G11 4-pin base. This ballast is not compatible with T5HO, T8, or other lamp types.
Lamp Count: Confirm fixture requires 1 or 2 lamps.
Input Voltage: Confirm your circuit voltage is within 120–277V.
Start Method: For occupancy sensor applications with frequent switching, a programmed rapid start ballast is recommended over instant start.
Physical Fit: Confirm 9.5" x 1.7" x 1.18" SC-can dimensions fit within your fixture's ballast cavity.
Wiring: Consult the ballast label wiring diagram when configuring for 1-lamp vs. 2-lamp operation.
