Philips Lighting 913700536909 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will this Philips 1500W core and coil ballast run my metal halide lamp, and how do I confirm the lamp matches?
Check the ANSI code printed on the lamp. The Philips 913700536909 core and coil ballast is built for 1500W metal halide lamps carrying ANSI code M48, one lamp per unit, at a nominal ballast factor of 1. If your lamp is anything other than M48, it is the wrong ballast.
2) Does this Philips HID ballast come with the capacitor, and what capacitor does it need?
A CWA ballast will not operate without its capacitor, and the spec calls for a 32 MFD, 525V unit rated 90 degrees C, Philips capacitor catalog number MD3202100, measuring 2 inches across the oval and 3.75 inches tall. Confirm the capacitor is part of your order or on hand before the fixture goes back together. No ignitor is used with this ballast.
3) Can this ballast be mounted remotely from the fixture, and how far away?
Remote mounting is allowed. The ballast ships with 12 inch stranded leads, so any distance beyond that is your own wiring run, and the maximum ballast to lamp distance depends on the wire gauge you pull. Size the conductors for the run, not the other way around. Strip length on the factory leads is specified at 0.5 mm.
4) Is this HID ballast rated for outdoor area and site lighting fixtures?
Yes, suitable for outdoor use, with Class H (180 degrees C) insulation and temperature marking E under UL temperature code 1029E. That combination is what lets it sit in enclosed pole-mounted and site-lighting housings as well as indoor high bays.
5) Is this ballast UL Listed for my facility's inspection?
It is UL Recognized, with approval mark ULR, which means it is a component certified for use inside a listed luminaire rather than a standalone listed assembly. Factory-current sheets show Class H insulation and hipot withstand of 2000 V for one minute and 2500 V for two seconds. If your specification calls for a UL Listed standalone ballast, a Recognized component may not satisfy it.
6) What test values should I see on the bench if I am checking whether this ballast is still good?
Open circuit secondary voltage is nominally 460 V, with an acceptance window of 414 to 506 V. Secondary short circuit current should read 7.4 to 9 A. Primary side, expect roughly 1.56 A open circuit and 2.94 A during starting against 3.43 A nominal running current. Readings well outside those bands point at a failed winding or a dead capacitor.
7) Does this metal halide ballast restrike the lamp automatically after a power blip?
No automatic restart. After an interruption the lamp has to cool before it will reignite, which is normal metal halide behavior and the reason 1500W M48 installations over egress or work areas usually pair with quartz restrike or a separate emergency source.
8) How is this Philips HID ballast packed, and how do I identify it when standardizing across a facility?
One ballast per pack, one pack per outer box, so each order line is a single unit. For cross-referencing what is already installed, the Philips base model is 71A6742A and the order product name reads CORE & COIL HID 71A6742001. Those are the numbers to match when you are keeping a spares shelf for 1500W metal halide fixtures.
