Philips 31710-7 SON AGRO 430W — 430W Ceramalux Agro Horticultural High Pressure Sodium Lamp, E39 Mogul Base
The Philips 31710-7 SON AGRO 430W is a 430W Ceramalux Agro horticultural High Pressure Sodium (HPS) lamp from Philips Lighting, built for supplemental grow lighting in greenhouse and controlled-environment agriculture. With an E39 Mogul base, ED-18 bulb shape, ANSI code S51, and universal burn position, this lamp delivers 53,000 initial lumens and a 16,000-hour rated life. Verify wattage, ANSI code, base type, and ballast compatibility before ordering — HPS lamps require an HPS-rated ballast and ignitor.

Product Overview
The Philips 31710-7 SON AGRO 430W is a Ceramalux Agro lamp engineered for horticultural lighting, delivering the photosynthetically active radiation (blue-to-red, roughly 400–700nm) that drives plant growth in greenhouse and grow-room environments. At 430W, it delivers 53,000 initial lumens (47,700 mean lumens) with a 16,000-hour rated average life — shorter than standard roadway-duty HPS lamps, which is typical for high-output horticultural sources run on extended daily cycles.
The ED-18 bulb shape and E39 Mogul base make this a fit for fixtures built around standard mogul-base HPS grow lamps. Universal burn position allows installation in any orientation. ANSI code S51 lamps run on standard HPS ballasts and auxiliary equipment matched to that ballast code. This lamp contains sodium and mercury and must be recycled per applicable regulations.
Compatible Applications
- Greenhouse supplemental lighting — Extending day length or boosting light levels for vegetable and flower crops.
- Controlled-environment agriculture — Grow rooms and horticultural facilities using mogul-base HPS fixtures.
- Retrofit replacement — Direct replacement for existing 430W Agro/horticultural HPS lamps with E39 base and S51 ANSI code. Verify ballast compatibility before ordering.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Availability: Prior catalog data flags this item as discontinued — confirm current stock and manufacturer availability before listing as orderable.
- ANSI / Lamp Code: Confirm the existing lamp or equipment manual matches S51; some older documentation for this product also references S145 — do not substitute without checking your specific ballast.
- Wattage: Confirm the fixture is rated for 430W.
- Base Type: Confirm the socket matches E39 Mogul.
- Ballast Compatibility: This lamp requires an HPS-rated ballast and ignitor matched to its ANSI code.
- Physical Fit: Confirm ED-18 bulb shape, LCL 5¾″, MOL 9¾″, and fixture clearance against the existing lamp or fixture manual.
- UPC/EAN: Not listed on the manufacturer datasheet used for this rebuild — confirm with Philips/Signify or your distributor before publishing barcode data.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Correct Ballast Required: Use only with an HPS-compatible ballast and ignitor rated for this lamp and ANSI code. Using an incompatible ballast can result in lamp failure or fixture damage.
- UV Exposure: If the outer envelope is broken or punctured, this lamp can cause serious skin burn and eye inflammation from short-wave ultraviolet radiation. Do not operate with a broken outer envelope where people will remain nearby for more than a few minutes without adequate shielding.
- High-Pressure Arc Tube: HPS lamps operate under high internal pressure. Always use appropriate eye protection when handling or replacing lamps. Allow lamps to cool fully before removal.
- Approved Fixtures Only: Install only in fixtures rated for the listed lamp type, wattage, and operating position.
- Handling: Do not scratch the outer bulb or subject it to pressure — this could cause the outer bulb to crack or shatter. Replace the lamp if the outer glass bulb has been scratched, cracked, or damaged in any way.
- Mercury Content: Contains sodium and mercury. Do not dispose of in regular trash. Recycle through an approved lamp recycling program in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
Compliance
- Contains sodium and mercury — subject to applicable lamp recycling and disposal regulations. California, Washington, and other states may have mandatory take-back or handling fee requirements.
- Complies with FDA radiation performance standard 21 CFR subchapter J (per prior listing; verify against current Philips documentation).
- Verify RoHS compliance status, UL listing, Title 20, and Prop 65 requirements with the Philips manufacturer specification sheet prior to use in regulated installations.
