Description
ADVANCE Metal Halide Ballast Kit, 70W, ANSI M98 M143, 120V/277V/347V Input, 3x4 (2 Coil Unit), HX-HPF Circuit
Advance 70W Metal Halide Magnetic Core & Coil Ballast Kit (71A52A2-001D)
The Advance 71A52A2-001D (71A52A2001D) by Signify is a heavy-duty magnetic core and coil replacement ballast kit engineered to reliably operate one 70-watt pulse-start metal halide lamp (ANSI M98 / M143). Built with a 120/277/347V voltage HX-HPF (High Reactance High Power Factor) circuit, this complete replacement kit includes the precision-wound core and coil, dry film capacitor, external ignitor, and mounting brackets for outdoor wall packs, area lighting, canopy fixtures, and floodlights.
Key Features & Performance Benefits
- Complete Replacement Kit: The “001D” suffix indicates a complete master replacement package including the core and coil assembly, pulse ignitor, matched dry film capacitor, and universal mounting brackets.
- Dual-Voltage Flexibility: Features dedicated primary wiring taps for both standard 120V and commercial 277V input connections at 60 Hz.
- HX-HPF Circuitry: High Reactance High Power Factor design ensures stable arc regulation, high electrical efficiency (≥ 90% power factor), and minimal line-current draw.
- Rugged Thermal Insulation: Built with a Class H (180°C) rated insulation system engineered to endure high internal operating temperatures in sealed exterior fixtures.
- Commercial & Industrial Application: Direct replacement kit for outdoor building perimeters, wall packs, parking canopies, and architectural floodlights.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "71A52A2001D" stand for in Advance's catalog?
"71A" designates an HID Magnetic Core & Coil ballast line, "52" indicates the 70W lamp capacity, "A2" specifies the ANSI M98/M143 pulse-start circuit with 120/277/347V dual-voltage taps, and "001D" designates a complete replacement kit containing the core, coil, dry film capacitor, starter ignitor, and mounting brackets.
What is the difference between 71A52A2001D and 71A5292001D?
The primary difference is input voltage configuration. The 71A52A2-001D is a multi-voltage model engineered for 120V 277V and 347V systems, whereas the 71A5292-001D is a 4-tap quad-voltage ballast providing taps for 120V, 208V, 240V, and 277V circuits.
Does this kit include the required ignitor and capacitor?
Yes. The “001D” kit is a fully packaged retrofit solution containing the matched dry film capacitor, the high-voltage pulse ignitor, and the pre-drilled brackets required for installation.
