Product Overview
The Philips MSR Gold 1200 FastFit is a 1,200-watt single-ended MSR (Medium Source Rare earth) discharge lamp engineered for professional entertainment lighting fixtures — follow spots, moving heads, profile spots, and large-venue theatrical and live event fixtures operating in the 700W to 2500W range. The FastFit base design allows lamp replacement in seconds without tools, using a purpose-designed lamp holder and base mechanism that speeds changeover during productions and reduces downtime.
Gold-plated caps provide superior heat protection and reduce the risk of premature base failure under the extreme operating temperatures generated by a 1,200W discharge source. Philips P3 technology allows this lamp to operate in any position and at higher ambient temperatures than conventional MSR lamps, extending service life and maintaining consistent high-quality output throughout the lamp's service life. The compact 5.5mm nominal arc length and tight dimensional tolerances (L 64–66mm) support accurate optical placement in reflector-based fixtures where arc position directly affects beam quality and distribution. The MSR Gold FastFit family shares its base type with Philips Halogen professional lamps, allowing mixed lamp technology operation from the same fixture platform.
Compatible Applications
- Follow spots — High-output source for long-throw professional follow spot fixtures.
- Moving head and profile fixtures — Compact arc and universal position for fixture formats requiring consistent arc placement.
- Theatre and live event lighting — High-intensity pure white output for large-venue stage applications.
- TV and broadcast studio lighting — 6000K daylight CCT and CRI 80 for broadcast-quality illumination.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Fixture Compatibility: Confirm your fixture accepts the PGJX50 FastFit base and is rated for 1,200W MSR lamp operation. FastFit fixtures require a compatible FastFit lamp holder — not compatible with standard GX/GY base formats.
- Wattage Range: The Philips MSR Gold FastFit family operates between 700W and 2500W — confirm your fixture's ballast is matched to the 1,200W variant specifically.
- Life Expectation: This lamp is rated to 750 hours L50 (median life) — this is normal for professional entertainment discharge lamps. Plan your relamping program accordingly based on production schedules.
- Dimming: Confirm your fixture's ballast/control system supports dimming of this lamp if dimming functionality is required.
- Physical Dimensions: Confirm fixture lamp compartment accommodates D 26.1mm, L 64–66mm, C(max) 128mm, F 50mm base footprint.
- Case Quantity: Sold individually; 4 per outer box.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- High Pressure Discharge Lamp: This lamp operates at very high internal pressures and temperatures. Always allow to fully cool before handling or replacement.
- Disconnect power before lamp replacement.
- Use Appropriate Personal Protective Equipment when handling hot lamps or working near discharge sources.
- If the Lamp Breaks: Ventilate the room for 30 minutes before cleanup. Do not use a vacuum cleaner. Collect parts carefully with gloves, place in a sealed plastic bag, and take to a local waste facility for recycling.
- UV Radiation: MSR discharge lamps emit UV radiation — operate only in fixtures with appropriate UV filtering optics or protective glass.
