Philips 39 W HID Ballast
The Philips Advance IMH-39-G-BLS is a 39 W electronic metal halide ballast designed for single-lamp fixtures. It operates on 120-277 V AC input at 50/60 Hz and carries ANSI codes C130 and M130. The unit starts reliably down to -4 °F and delivers a ballast factor of 1.0.
Installers needing pulse-start MH support
This ballast suits maintenance crews and electricians replacing pulse-start metal halide drivers in commercial or industrial luminaires. It supports exactly one 39 W lamp and draws 43 to 44 W input power. Buyers running probe-start lamps, multi-lamp fixtures, or higher wattage metal halide systems should look elsewhere.
39 W single-lamp pulse-start rating
The defining specification is the 39 W pulse-start metal halide rating with ANSI C130/M130 compliance. It dictates lamp compatibility, fixture wiring, and code acceptance for the installation. Match this rating precisely to the lamp and luminaire markings before purchase.
