Philips electronic ballasts
Hi All
Can anyone tell me where I can purchase Philips electronic ballasts fitted on Dairy cabinets,
Philips
e-Kyoto Electronic Ballast
e-Kyoto 236 TLD 220-240
2 x TLD 36w
We have seen quite a few faulty recently but cant get them any where.
There is no starter everything is built in to the ballast with just a two core cable going down through the cabinet to each light so we cant get anything else to fit.
Thanks chris.

You could also have a look at rs componants website rswww.com but its not working until monday.
The link i put in above post has a sales hotline in the top r/h corner.
Best of luck.If it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.

Re: Philips electronic ballasts
I deal with a different brand that uses the same style of lights. Most electrical and lamp specialists don't carry them but can order them in. It's a general PITA to find these things, I agree, we normally have to order in a box of them just so we can get them in under 5 days.
I just did a google for lamp specialists in the UK, have you tried these guys:

Hi paul and chunky monkey
Thanks for the replies
Paul can you tell me where you normally buy yours from we dont mind buying a box of them as they seem to be cropping up a lot now on cabinets about 3 years old.
I would like to have them in stock as some customers hav'nt got great patience.
Cheers chris.

Re: Philips electronic ballasts
Just a point of note if you haven't used them much, they require two working flouro tubes to complete the circuit - if you try to start them with only one flouro in place or one faulty - they will not illuminate either flouro, both flouros must be in place.

Re: Philips electronic ballasts
Hi all
Thats good to know about the two lights so it might be just a faulty tube in the circuit that is making 2 lights go out at a time.
But I would still like to have some new ones just incase I go back and change tubes and they still wont work its a long way from base.
Cheers chris.

Re: Philips electronic ballasts
nah worked it out all by myself
I commission A LOT of supermarket fridges and I stumbled on it by accident, a meat case shelf light was missing and another was not working, the second i put a new tube in they both came good...
good old trial and error...and she said "give it to me you big fridgie"

Hi again
Just to say thanks to chunky monkey,
I contacted BLT and they are getting the philips ballasts in for us.
I must say BLT are great to deal with no messing about.
Cheers chris.
