Product Overview

The GE 47760 MVR175U-ED28 Multi-Vapor Quartz Metal Halide Lamp is a 175‑watt, 4000K cool white lamp delivering 13,600 initial lumens with a CRI of 65. It features an E39 mogul screw base and an ED28 bulb shape, making it ideal for industrial high‑bay/low‑bay fixtures, warehouse lighting, and outdoor area illumination. The lamp operates on ANSI M57/E ballasts and has a universal burning position for flexible installation in any orientation.

With a 10,000‑hour rated life and 66 lumens per watt efficacy, this metal halide lamp provides long‑lasting, energy‑efficient light for demanding commercial and industrial environments. The low‑mercury composition (293 picograms per mean lumen‑hour) is LEED‑compliant and environmentally responsible.

Why Choose This Product

• 13,600 high initial lumens: Excellent brightness for warehouses, manufacturing, and sports lighting.
• 10,000‑hour long life – lower maintenance: Reduces relamping frequency in hard‑to‑reach fixtures.
• 4000K cool white color temperature: Provides a bright, neutral light that enhances visibility and worker alertness.
• Universal burn position: Works in any orientation – base‑up, base‑down, or horizontal – for maximum fixture compatibility.
• High efficacy 66 lm/W: Energy‑efficient operation lowers electricity costs.
• Low mercury content: LEED‑compliant and environmentally responsible – 293 picograms Hg per mean lumen‑hour.
• GE Multi‑Vapor quality: Trusted brand for HID lighting in industrial and outdoor applications.

Compatibility & Replacement

Fixture type: Designed for metal halide fixtures with E39 mogul base and ANSI M57/E ballasts. Common in industrial high‑bay luminaires, parking lot lights, and outdoor floodlights.

Base: E39 (Mogul Screw) – larger than standard E26 medium base. Confirm your fixture uses E39 mogul lampholders.

Ballast requirement – CRITICAL: Requires an ANSI M57/E compatible ballast (175W metal halide, probe start). Do not operate on ANSI M58, M137, or other ballast types – lamp damage or failure will occur.

Before ordering, confirm:

• Fixtures and ballasts are ANSI M57/E rated for 175W metal halide.
• Base type is E39 mogul screw (not E26 or medium base).
• Physical dimensions (8.25″ MOL, 3.5″ diameter) fit within your fixture.
• Ballast is in good working condition (probe start, not pulse start).
• Burn position – universal; works in any orientation.

ADL Supply recommends confirming all applicable compliance data with the GE official product data sheet (MVR175U-ED28) prior to specification or installation.

Safety & Handling Notes

• Risk of electric shock: Turn power off before inspection, installation, or removal. Do not install where directly exposed to water without an enclosed fixture.
• Risk of fire: Keep combustible materials away from lamp. Use only in fixtures rated for this product.
• High pressure warning – face shield required: Metal halide lamps operate under high internal pressure. Always wear a face shield and protective gloves during handling and installation. Lamp burst can cause serious injury.
• No bare hands: Never touch the quartz arc tube with bare skin. Oils cause hot spots leading to premature failure or lamp burst. Use clean gloves or a lint‑free cloth.
• Do not exceed rated voltage: Use only with ANSI M57/E ballasts. Operating on incorrect ballast dramatically shortens lamp life and may cause rupture.
• UV radiation hazard: Metal halide lamps produce significant UV radiation. Use only in enclosed fixtures with UV‑filtering glass or lens. Never operate without protective shielding.
• Mercury disposal: This lamp contains mercury. Dispose in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Do not break or crush.
• Hot restart cooldown: After turning off, allow 10–15 minutes for lamp to cool before restarting. Hot striking may fail or damage the lamp.
• Allow complete cool‑down before handling: Allow lamp to cool completely before relamping. Do not touch immediately after switching off.
• Follow fixture manufacturer's instructions and local electrical codes for installation.
