Philips MSD Platinum 200 Flex 240W Arc Stage Lamp

The Philips MSD Platinum 200 Flex (341297) is a 240280W short arc lamp built for moving head and hybrid fixtures in concerts, touring and event lighting. It delivers up to 8000K colour temperature for intense, crisp white output. This new standard bulb serves as a direct replacement for Elation Smarty Hybrid and Terbly V240BS units.

Sustained output across 3000-hour rated life

Rated for up to 3000 hours, the lamp maintains high output and colour consistency over extended runs rather than only in short bursts. Flex technology supports a wide power range to keep performance stable across varying fixture demands. The compact short arc design enables fast lamp changes, reducing downtime during demanding event schedules. It is not suited for installations needing significantly longer intervals between replacements.

Thermal, noise and power characteristics

Operating at 240W, the lamp produces the heat and power draw typical of high-output stage arcs in normal use. Fixture cooling and airflow determine actual operating temperatures and any audible fan noise. The short arc format concentrates thermal load, so adequate ventilation in the moving head is essential. No separate ballast specifications or acoustic ratings are provided.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the 240280W MSD Platinum 200 Flex generate during extended stage use?

The lamp draws 240280W and runs at 8000K color temperature, so it produces significant heat; fixtures must provide forced-air cooling rated for this wattage to maintain the 3000-hour life.

What fixture and ballast must I already own for the 341297 lamp to operate?

You need a moving-head or hybrid fixture with a compatible short-arc socket and an electronic ballast that supports the Flex power range, such as the Elation Smarty Hybrid or Terbly V240BS.

Will the 200 Flex lamp work alongside my older 240W discharge lamps in the same rig?

Yes, it matches the 240W class and 8000K output, so colour balance stays consistent; just ensure the ballast can address the Flex lamp's specific ignition profile.
