Philips Lighting 913701122311 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Philips 913701122311 ballast run my 250W metal halide lamp?
It's built for a single 250W metal halide lamp carrying ANSI code M138 through M153. Rated lamp power is 250W and it drives one lamp per unit, so if the lamp on your fixture label falls in that M138-M153 range you're matched. A 250W high pressure sodium lamp is a different ANSI designation and will not run on this ballast.
2) What line voltage does this Philips core and coil HID ballast accept?
Multi-tap, so one part number covers 120, 208, 240, 277 and 480V at 60 Hz. You pick the tap by landing the line lead on the matching colored lead at install. Nominal input current follows the tap: 2.37A at 120V, 1.39A at 208V, 1.18A at 240V, 1.03A at 277V and 0.6A at 480V. It's a 60 Hz ballast only.
3) What fuse size should I use on a 250W SUPER-CWA metal halide ballast?
Recommended fuse values track the tap you land on: 8A at 120V, 5A at 208V, 5A at 240V, 3A at 277V and 2A at 480V. Size the in-line fuse for the tap you actually wire, not the highest value on the list. Starting current is lower than running current on this circuit (1.65A at 120V down to 0.43A at 480V), so the fuse is sized off the nominal draw.
4) Can I mount this HID ballast remotely from the fixture?
Remote wiring is allowed, but only up to a 2 foot ballast-to-lamp distance. That's short, so this is for a ballast tray mounted in or right next to the fixture housing, not a ballast cabinet down the pole or across a mechanical room. Leads come 12 inches long, stranded, color coded, with a 0.5 mm strip length.
5) Does a capacitor and ignitor come with the 913701122311, or do I order those separately?
A core and coil HID ballast is the transformer element; the SUPER-CWA circuit needs a capacitor and an ignitor to run. The specified capacitor is 17 MFD rated 330V, Philips catalog number 7C170P40, measuring 1.75 inches across the oval by 3.75 inches high and rated to 105 degrees C. The matching ignitor is LI533-H4, also rated 105 degrees C. Order them as separate line items if your fixture tray doesn't already have serviceable ones.
6) Will this core and coil assembly fit my existing ballast tray?
Core size is 4-1/4 x 4-3/4 with a 2 coil build, base model 71A5752. Measure the footprint and mounting centers in your existing tray against that core before you commit, since core and coil units bolt in by the laminated core rather than a standard housing. Piece weight is 5.203 kg, which matters if you're hanging a pole-top or high-bay tray overhead.
7) Can this ballast be used in an outdoor parking lot or site lighting fixture?
Yes, it's rated suitable for outdoor use, with UL insulation Class H (180 degrees C) windings and UL temperature code 1029A. It's a UL Recognized Component, approval mark ULR, which means it's certified for installation inside a listed fixture rather than as a standalone listed product. Install it in a weather-rated enclosure or fixture housing; the ballast itself does not supply the enclosure.
8) What does SUPER-CWA mean and is it better than a reactor or lag ballast for metal halide?
SUPER-CWA is a constant wattage autotransformer circuit. It holds lamp wattage within a 10 percent deviation as line voltage swings, where a reactor or lag circuit lets lamp output move much more with the line. That matters on long feeders, generator-backed sites, and parking lots where voltage sags. Power factor is 0.9 and ballast factor is 1, so the lamp sees full rated output. Input power is 284W for a 250W lamp, the difference being ballast losses.
9) Will this metal halide ballast restrike the lamp automatically after a power blip?
No. Automatic restart is not a feature of this ballast, so after a momentary outage the metal halide lamp has to cool before it will reignite, typically several minutes of dark time. If your application cannot tolerate that, plan for quartz restrike in the fixture or a separate emergency lighting path rather than expecting the ballast to handle it.
10) How do I confirm a 250W MH ballast is good before I condemn the fixture?
Open circuit voltage is the first check: this one runs 280V nominal, with an acceptance test band of 254 to 308 V measured across the secondary with no lamp in place. Secondary short circuit current should land between 2.35 and 2.88 A. Factory hipot values are 2000 V for one minute and 2500 V for two seconds. Readings well outside those ranges point at the ballast rather than the lamp or ignitor.
11) How is the Philips 913701122311 HID ballast packaged, and what part number do I reference for reorders?
It ships one piece per pack, one pack per outer box, so each order line is a single ballast. For matching replacements across a site, the identifiers to quote are base model 71A5752 and the Philips order product name CORE & COIL HID 71A5752001D. Keep those on file if you're standardizing 250W MH trays across a portfolio.
