GE 47763 MVR 175w Metal Halide
The GE 47763 is a 175 watt Multi-Vapor metal halide lamp with a 3900K colour temperature and a CRI of 70. It uses an E40 mogul screw base and an ED28 bulb envelope. This lamp suits industrial or commercial fixtures requiring high-intensity discharge output.
E40 mogul screw base installation
The E40 mogul screw base fits standard export mogul sockets directly. Ensure the fixture is rated for 175 watt M57/E operation and that the ballast matches the lamp code. Mismatched ballasts cause premature failure or prevent starting.
175 watt output and 3900K colour
The 175 watt rating delivers high lumen output for large-area lighting such as warehouses or outdoor yards. The 3900K temperature provides a neutral white light. It is not suitable for applications needing higher colour rendering or lower wattage operation.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 175 W Multi-Vapor lamp is operating correctly after installation?
The lamp should strike within a few minutes and settle to a steady 3900 K white light without flicker; a stable current draw near the rated 175 W on the ballast indicates normal operation.
What comes in the box and what must be purchased separately for the GE 47763?
The box contains the ED28 quartz metal halide bulb with an E40 mogul screw base; a compatible M57/E pulse-start ballast and an enclosed fixture rated for 175 W operation are required but not included.
Which version should I choose if I need the 3900 K colour temperature and E40 base?
Select the GE 47763 rated 175 W, 3900 K, CRI 70, with the E40 mogul screw base — this is the only version matching those specifications in the MVR series.
