Philips Lighting IMH70GLFM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can one Philips E-Vision IMH70GLFM ballast be used on both 120V and 277V circuits?
Yes. It is a multi-tap unit rated 120-277V at 50/60Hz, so the same part works on 120, 208, 240 or 277 volt feeds. For a property manager or contractor stocking a truck or a facility storeroom, that means one ballast part number covers mixed-voltage buildings instead of a separate SKU per tap.
2) I'm replacing a failed ballast in a 70W metal halide parking lot fixture. Is this the right type of part to order?
For a straight ballast replacement in a 70W MH fixture, this covers the electrical side: 70W output, 120-277V multi-tap input, M139/M143 lamp codes. Confirm the ANSI code on the existing lamp and that the fixture housing has room for the ballast you are mounting. The lamp itself and any socket or capacitor parts are ordered separately.
3) Is the IMH70GLFM an electronic or a magnetic metal halide ballast?
Electronic. It is part of the Philips E-Vision electronic (ELE) metal halide platform rather than a core-and-coil magnetic ballast. If your fixture schedule or utility rebate calls specifically for a magnetic probe-start or pulse-start core-and-coil ballast, this is not a substitute for it.
4) Does the Philips IMH70GLFM work with ceramic metal halide or high pressure sodium lamps?
No. This is a metal halide ballast only, specified for 70W MH lamps with ANSI codes M139/M143. High pressure sodium lamps use S-code ballasts and will not operate on it. Any 70W lamp you put on it has to carry M139 or M143.
5) Can I use the Philips IMH70GLFM on a 50Hz supply outside North America?
It carries a 50/60Hz rating, so it operates on either frequency within the 120-277V input range. That matters on export jobs and on facilities running generator or 50Hz plant power.
6) What is the exact Philips part number to order for the 70W E-Vision metal halide ballast?
The manufacturer part number is IMH70GLFM, Philips Lighting, E-Vision series. Quote that number when matching a fixture spec or cross-referencing a distributor line sheet.
