Product Overview
The Philips Centium ICN-2P32-N is a versatile electronic instant start ballast built for T8 fluorescent systems in commercial, institutional, and retrofit applications. IntelliVolt technology eliminates the need for voltage-specific models — a single ballast covers 120V through 277V installations, simplifying inventory and specification.
Instant start operation delivers immediate full output without a warm-up delay, making it well suited for spaces with frequent switching. Lamp striation reduction technology minimizes visible striping along the lamp tube for more consistent, stable light output. The low-profile housing (9.5" x 1.7" x 1.18") fits compact fixture designs where space is limited.

Compatible Applications
- Commercial fluorescent fixture retrofits — Office troffers, strip fixtures, and wrap-around luminaires using 1–2 lamp T8 configurations.
- New construction and relamping — Universal voltage input simplifies specification across 120V and 277V commercial circuits.
- Energy-saving T8 upgrades — Compatible with ES-designation T8 lamps for improved system efficiency.
- Compact fixture applications — Low-profile housing fits space-constrained fixture designs.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Lamp Type: Confirm your lamps are on the compatible lamp list above.
- Lamp Count: Confirm fixture requires 1 or 2 lamps. This ballast does not support 3- or 4-lamp configurations.
- Input Voltage: Confirm your circuit voltage is within 120–277V.
- Start Method: Instant start ballasts do not support dimming and may reduce lamp life in high-switching applications — confirm instant start is appropriate for your installation.
- Physical Fit: Confirm 9.5" x 1.7" x 1.18" dimensions fit within your fixture's ballast cavity.
