ADVANCE M98/M143 70W Metal Halide Ballast, Quad tap 120V/208V/240V/277V, 3x4 (2 Coil Unit), HX-HPF Circuit
Advance 70W Metal Halide Magnetic Core & Coil Ballast Kit (71A5292-001D)
The Advance 71A5292-001D (71A5292001D) by Signify is an industrial-grade magnetic core and coil replacement ballast kit designed to operate one 70-watt pulse-start metal halide lamp (ANSI M98 or M143). Featuring a 4-tap multi-voltage circuit (120/208/240/277V) and an HX-HPF (High Reactance High Power Factor) configuration, this complete retrofit kit includes the precision-wound core and coil, dry film capacitor, ignitor, and mounting brackets for outdoor area lights, floodlights, and wall packs.
Key Features & Performance Benefits
- Complete Replacement Kit: The “001D” designation indicates a complete master replacement kit containing the core and coil assembly, pre-wired ignitor, dry film capacitor, and universal mounting bracket hardware.
- Quad-Tap Input Versatility: Equipped with dedicated leads for 120V, 208V, 240V, and 277V primary service connections at 60 Hz.
- HX-HPF Circuitry: High Reactance High Power Factor design ensures reliable current stabilization and maximum electrical efficiency (≥ 90% power factor).
- High Thermal Rating: UL Class H (180°C) rated insulation system engineered to withstand elevated operating temperatures in enclosed exterior fixtures.
- Wide Fixture Suitability: Ideal direct replacement for commercial parking lot luminaires, building facade floodlights, wall packs, and pathway bollards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "71A5292001D" stand for in Advance's catalog?
"71A" designates an HID Magnetic Core & Coil ballast line, "52" indicates the 70W lamp capacity, "92" denotes the pulse-start ANSI M98 rating with 120/208/240/277V quad-tap primary wiring, and "001D" specifies a complete replacement kit containing the core, coil, matched capacitor 7C080L33-R, pulse ignitor LI533-H4, and mounting brackets.
Does this ballast kit include the starter ignitor and capacitor?
Yes. The “001D” kit is fully packaged with the matched dry film capacitor, external starter ignitor, and pre-drilled brackets and mounting hardware needed for immediate installation.
Can this ballast operate standard 70W high-pressure sodium lamps?
No. The 71A5292-001D is specifically engineered for ANSI M98 metal halide pulse-start lamps. High-pressure sodium lamps require an ANSI S62 ballast with different electrical operating and ignition characteristics.
