Philips Advance CFL Ballast Kit

The Philips Advance ICF-2S26-H1-LD-K is an electronic ballast kit designed for compact fluorescent lamps. It operates on input voltages from 120 to 277V AC and supports one or two bulbs. The ballast uses a rapid start method and carries the SmartMate branding for compatible lamp pairing.

Installers needing multi-voltage CFL operation

This kit suits maintenance teams and contractors replacing ballasts in commercial fixtures that run on 120V or 277V supplies. It supports CFQ, CFS and CFT lamp types with a maximum of 42W per bulb. Buyers who need dimming control should look elsewhere because this unit provides no dimming function.

54W total lamp power rating

The ballast is rated for a combined lamp load of 54W, allowing configurations such as two 26W lamps or a single 32W or 42W lamp. Minimum starting temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Verify that the installed lamps match the supported types and wattage limits before installation.

Questions about this item

What does the 54 W rating mean once the ballast is installed?

The 54 W figure is the ballast's maximum input power; with one 42 W lamp the system draws roughly that amount, while a single 32 W lamp or two 26 W lamps will draw less.

What does the 120/277 V input range cap in practice?

It allows the ballast to operate on standard 120 V or 277 V mains without rewiring; the rapid-start circuit limits each lamp to its rated wattage regardless of which voltage is present.

What physical space is needed to mount this ballast?

The unit is designed to fit inside standard fluorescent fixtures or junction boxes; allow room for the case and wiring leads when planning the installation.
