Philips MSD Platinum 17 RA - 350W (7000K) Discharge Reflector Lamp for Professional Entertainment
The Philips MSD Platinum 17 RA is a discharge lamp with an integrated reflector designed for touring, stage, and event lighting, where a very intense beam is required in compact fixtures. Its ultra-short arc of 1.0 mm and cool white 7000 K deliver a nominal 15,250 lm with excellent beam definition and color rendering ( CRI 85 ). It supports universal working positions and is dimmable (with compatible equipment), facilitating integration into beam/spot/hybrid moving heads. The E20.9 reflector system simplifies alignment and reduces replacement time, while the construction withstands high operating temperatures (bulb max. 880 °C; pinch max. 350 °C). It has an average lifespan of 1,500 hours and weighs only 0.120 kg .
