Advance 71A5993001D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Advance 71A5993001D ballast run my 350W pulse start metal halide lamp?
It will run a single 350W pulse start metal halide lamp carrying the M131 ANSI code. Match the lamp's ANSI code on the lamp end stamp or carton before installing. An M131 ballast will not correctly start or run a probe start lamp of the same wattage, and it drives one lamp only.
2) Will this ballast physically fit inside my existing HID fixture housing?
The assembly measures 4.75 x 4.30 x 4.25 inches and weighs 12.55 lbs. Check the clear space in your ballast tray or pole base against those numbers, and make sure the mounting surface will carry 12.55 lbs, because on a pole-mounted shoebox that weight is usually the limiting factor rather than the footprint.
3) Can I use this 350W ballast on a 400W metal halide fixture?
No. A ballast has to match the lamp wattage and ANSI code, and this one is a 350W M131 unit for a single lamp. A 400W lamp on it will be underdriven and will not reach its rated color or life. For a 400W fixture you need the ballast matching that lamp's ANSI designation.
4) What comes in the Advance M131 quad kit, or do I need to buy the capacitor separately?
The kit is supplied as a ballast core-and-coil with the capacitor, rated at 22.5 MFD, as part of the assembly. If you are replacing only a failed capacitor on an existing 350W pulse start fixture, match that 22.5 MFD value rather than buying the full kit.
5) Can I put this metal halide ballast on a dimmer or occupancy sensor for energy savings?
No. This is a non-dimming magnetic HID ballast, and metal halide lamps also need a restrike cooldown after any interruption, so switching it off a motion sensor leaves an area dark for several minutes. If the facility wants dimming or instant restrike on a lighting retrofit, that is an LED conversion decision, not a ballast selection.
6) Is this Advance ballast rated for outdoor pole and wall pack fixtures?
Yes, it is built for exterior use and carries Class P thermal protection, which opens the circuit if the windings overheat and resets when they cool. That is what lets it sit in a sealed pole base or wall pack enclosure through summer heat. The ballast itself still has to be installed inside a suitable fixture enclosure, not exposed.
7) Does this ballast meet the UL and RoHS requirements our specs call for?
The Advance 350W M131 ballast is UL recognized, holds a CSA certificate for Canadian jobs, and is RoHS compliant. It is also made in the USA, which matters on public work where domestic sourcing is written into the bid.
8) Will lamp output drop if I swap in this ballast?
No loss from the ballast side. It runs a ballast factor of 1, meaning the lamp is driven to its full rated lumen output, with a 0.9 power factor on the line side. On a high-power-factor system like this, the circuit draws less current than a low-power-factor ballast at the same wattage, which is worth knowing if you are counting fixtures on a branch circuit.
