UltraStart Ballast for T12 and T9 Lamps

The GE Current GE240PS-MV-N is an electronic fluorescent ballast built for commercial and residential fixtures running one or two T12 or T9 tubes. Programmed rapid start reduces electrode wear and extends lamp life in offices, schools and retail spaces. It operates on any supply from 120 to 277 volts AC without rewiring. No dimming function is included.

Capacity and Headroom

Rated for a maximum of 75 watts total lamp power, the unit comfortably drives combinations such as two 24-watt or two 25-watt tubes, and supports a single 45-watt lamp where the fixture allows. The 28-watt minimum means very low-output tubes will not strike reliably. Output drops off if total lamp wattage exceeds the 75-watt ceiling.

Multi-Volt Input Limits

The 120 to 277-volt auto-sensing input covers standard North American phase-to-neutral and phase-to-phase supplies, but provides no dimming interface or control protocol. Minimum starting temperature is 50 degrees Fahrenheit, so unheated garages or cold-storage areas below that threshold may experience hard starts or lamp failure. Not compliant with California Title 20 efficiency rules.

Questions about this item

Will the GE240PS-MV-N run the T12 lamps I already have installed?

Yes — it supports T12 bulbs at 24 W, 25 W and 45 W, so existing T12 lamps within those wattages will operate normally.

How can I confirm the ballast is functioning correctly once wired?

After power-up the programmed start sequence should ignite the lamp without flicker; steady light output at 120–277 V AC input indicates proper operation.

Does the package include lamp holders or wiring connectors, or must I buy them separately?

The ballast ships alone; lamp holders, wire nuts and any mounting hardware are not included and must be sourced separately.
