Description
ADVANCE Metal Halide Ballast, 35W/39W, ANSI M130, 120/277V Input, Core and Coil, HX-HPF Circuit
Advance 35-39W Metal Halide Magnetic Core & Coil Ballast Kit (71A5081001D)
The Advance 71A5081-001D (71A5081001D) by Signify is a heavy-duty magnetic core and coil replacement ballast kit designed to reliably operate one 35W to 39W pulse-start metal halide lamp (ANSI M130). Engineered with a dual-voltage 120/277V HX-HPF (High Reactance High Power Factor) circuit, this replacement kit includes the precision-wound core and coil, dry film capacitor, ignitor, and pre-assembled mounting hardware for commercial downlights, floodlights, and wall pack fixtures.
Key Features & Performance Benefits
- Complete Replacement Kit: The “001D” suffix denotes a full replacement kit containing the core and coil assembly, an external ignitor, a matched dry-film capacitor, and mounting bracket hardware.
- HX-HPF Circuitry: High Reactance High Power Factor design ensures stable lamp operation and greater electrical efficiency (power factor ≥ 90%).
- Dual-Voltage Versatility: Dedicated taps for standard 120V and commercial 277V circuits at 60 Hz.
- Thermal Endurance: Class H (180°C) rated insulation system built to withstand high internal temperatures common in sealed outdoor fixtures.
- Rugged Reliability: Precision-wound copper and steel laminations deliver durable performance across outdoor wall packs, canopies, and architectural accent luminaires.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "71A5081001D" stand for in Advance's catalog?
"71A" designates an HID Magnetic Core & Coil ballast, "50" indicates the 35W lamp rating, "81" specifies the ANSI M130 pulse-start lamp type with 120/277V dual-voltage taps, and "001D" designates a complete replacement kit containing the core, coil, capacitor, ignitor, and mounting brackets.
Does this ballast kit include the capacitor and ignitor?
Yes. The “001D” kit comes complete with a matched dry film capacitor (7C050L30RA), an external starter ignitor (LI533-H4), and the necessary brackets and hardware required for fixture retrofits.
Can this ballast operate probe-start metal halide lamps?
No. The 71A5081-001D is specifically engineered for ANSI M130 pulse-start metal halide lamps and requires the included high-voltage ignitor to strike the lamp arc.
