HID Control Gear
The Philips HID electronic gear range was designed for total compatibility with
Philips HID lamps.
Philips is leader in the eld of electronic technology and we have applied this
knowledge to our developments of control gear for lighting products. Each lamp
and gear combination requires extensive life testing before being released as a
complete system. The result is an optimal light performance.
Our products are rapidly gaining years of proven reliability in running HID lamps,
even in extreme outdoor environments. Our portfolio includes products to
operate Low Pressure Sodium, High Pressure Sodium, Metal Halide, Compact
HID, and CosmoPolis gear.
Electronic HID gear
Many of the latest lamps can only be operated on modern electronic control gear. The use
of electronic gear is generally advised for most lamp types because of the many advantages it
brings to our end users
• High system efficiency to save energy
• Lower maintenance costs due to enhanced lumen maintenance and practical lamp life
• Compact size and low weight provide design flexibility and easy installation
• Constant lamp power; mains voltage fluctuations do not affect light output and give
maximum lamp life
• No power factor correction needed so no capacitors to fail further reducing maintenance
costs.
• Only one component to simplify installation and servicing.
• Above all, an electronic installation is future proofed, ready for the addition of centralised
control systems.
• Electronic outdoor gear designed to resist physical stress (vibrations) and aggressive air
contaminations (dust, moisture, etc)
