GE Metal Halide Bulb 175W ED28

This GE MVR175/C/U is a 175-watt metal halide lamp with an ED28 quartz envelope. It delivers high-intensity discharge output for commercial and industrial fixtures. The bulb is sold new and rated for universal operating positions.

Suits HID fixtures needing 175W

Installers maintaining existing metal halide systems will find this a direct replacement. It is not for buyers who want LED retrofit lamps or lower-wattage fluorescent alternatives. Fixtures requiring a different base type or envelope size cannot use this bulb.

175-watt metal halide rating

The 175-watt power rating is the single specification that determines compatibility with the ballast and fixture. Verify that the existing equipment calls for exactly this wattage and an ED28 envelope before purchasing.
