Philips Starters for lighting

The Philips starters for lighting range delivers reliable ignition components tailored for traditional fluorescent lamp systems and other luminaires requiring starting mechanisms. Each starter meets Philips’ professional quality standards, ensuring safe, efficient lamp starting and long operational life in commercial, industrial and maintenance-segments.

Philips Fluorescent Starters for Conventional Installations

Philips fluorescent starters are designed for use with conventional electromagnetic ballasts and fluorescent tube systems — ideal for offices, schools, retail premises and older lighting installations where existing gear is retained.
Key features:

  • “Performance” series glow-switch starters rated for lamp circuits (e.g., 4 W-65 W) and standard mains voltages (220–240 V) under the Philips catalogue. 
  • Simple plug-in construction for easy replacement during maintenance. 
  • Compact form-factor, compliant with IEC/EN standards for starters and ignition devices.
    These starters allow distributors and service teams to support legacy fluorescent systems economically and efficiently.

Philips Igniter Units & Starter Accessories for Lighting Systems

Philips igniter units and starter accessories complement the starter portfolio, offering enhancements for lamp circuits or special installations where standard starters are insufficient.
Technical highlights:

  • Specialized starters (“igniters”) for rapid start or frequent switching environments, reducing flicker and extending lamp life in heavy-use systems.
  • Accessories such as mounting sockets, starter clips, replacement plug-in modules that simplify maintenance and stocking for professional installers.
  • Extension of Philips starter range covers newer tube and retrofit systems — supporting distributor catalogues with mix of legacy and transitional products.

Philips Lamp Starting Accessories – Portfolio & Application Fit

The Philips lamp starting accessories segment provides the full set of components for starter installation and system reliability:

  • Standard glow-switch starters for fluorescent lamps (e.g., S10 series) used in commercial lighting.
  • Safety starters rated for lamp circuits 4 W-65 W and 220-240 V operation.
  • Maintenance-friendly modules and accessories enabling quick replacement and downtime reduction.
    By offering this segment, distributors can service older lighting infrastructures, support refurbishment projects and maintain stock of “hard-to-find” legacy parts.
