High-Output Stage Lighting

The Philips MSR Gold 1200 SA is a metal halide discharge lamp built for professional stage and studio fixtures. It delivers 95000 lumens at a 6000K colour temperature with a CRI of 80, suiting broadcast, theatre and concert rigs that demand intense, daylight-balanced output.

Fixture Integration

This 1200W lamp requires a compatible ballast and a housing rated for its thermal load; it cannot run from mains directly. Its single-ended base fits standard MSR Gold sockets, freeing designers from proprietary holders while demanding adequate ventilation space within the luminaire.

Thermal and Power Profile

In normal operation the lamp draws 1200W and reaches full brightness after a warm-up period, producing significant heat that the fixture must dissipate. Rated life is 750 hours, after which output and colour stability decline, so scheduled relamping keeps shows consistent.

Questions about this item

How many hours of continuous operation does the 1200 W metal-halide bulb deliver before reaching its rated 750-hour life limit?

The lamp is rated for 750 hours of life at its full 1200-watt output and 95000-lumen performance.

What heat and noise levels should be expected when the 1200 W stage bulb runs all day in a fixture?

The 1200-watt discharge source generates significant heat and requires a ventilated fixture; the bulb itself has no moving parts so it produces no acoustic noise.

Which fixture socket and ballast are required to strike and run the 1200 W metal-halide lamp?

The lamp needs a compatible 1200-watt metal-halide ballast and a fixture with the correct socket for the MSR Gold 1200 SA base type.
