Philips MSR Gold 1200 SA/2 DE - 1200W, 7500K Metal Halide Lamp, SFc10-4 Base for Moving Heads and Projectors
The Philips MSR Gold 1200 SA/2 DE (double-ended) is designed for professional entertainment lighting applications requiring a very intense beam, pure white light (7,500 K) , and color stability. Its MSR Gold™ SA Double Ended construction combines gold-plated sockets with P3 technology , enabling operation at higher temperatures, reducing premature lamp/socket failures, and maintaining consistent performance throughout its 750-hour lifespan . It delivers a nominal luminous flux of 100,000 lm with a CRI of 85 and a short arc of 7.0 mm for a focused, high-impact beam. It operates in a universal position and is not dimmable , therefore it must be used with dedicated HID control equipment.

-
Powerful and defined beam: the short 7mm arc offers a very high perceived brightness, ideal for high-impact effects.
-
Pure white color: 7,500 K with CRI 85 for cool scenes, cutouts and blends with other daylight sources.
-
Easy integration: SFc10-4 base, universal operation and standard dimensions for use in compatible moving heads and projectors.
Use cases
-
Moving heads (beam/spot/wash) and 1,200W projectors with SFc10-4 socket in theater, concerts, festivals and corporate events .
-
Rental and touring : reliable replacement when you're looking for high intensity, stable color and thermal resistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can it be dimmed? No. This lamp is not dimmable ; use only with HID control equipment specified by the luminaire manufacturer.
-
In what position can it work? Universal (any orientation).
-
Any safety recommendations? In case of breakage, ventilate for 30 minutes and remove the fragments with gloves in a sealed bag for recycling. Do not use a vacuum cleaner.
