Advance 71A7971001D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use this 70W HPS ballast kit on 277V, or do I need a different part number for each voltage?
One part number covers four voltages. The Advance 71A7971001D is a quad-tap ballast rated 120/208/240/277V at 60 Hz, so you land on the tap lead that matches the fixture's supply and cap off the rest. That is why it works for a stocking fleet: the same kit goes into a 120V wallpack and a 277V parking lot head. It is 60 Hz only, so it is not a 50 Hz export part.
2) Will this ballast fit inside my existing fixture housing?
Measure the ballast pocket before you order. The core and coil measures 3.94 x 3.10 x 2.81 inches and the assembly weighs 5.6 lbs. Shoebox and wallpack housings for 70W HPS are usually tight on the vertical dimension, so the 2.81 inch figure is the one that typically decides whether the door plate closes. The weight also matters on a pole-top retrofit where you are holding the tray one-handed.
3) What comes in the Advance 70W HPS quad kit besides the core and coil?
It is sold as a kit, which is the ballast core and coil with the matched capacitor and igniter for pulse start operation. The capacitor is rated 7 MFD. That is the number to check if you are replacing a failed cap on an existing 70W HPS fixture rather than swapping the whole assembly, since a mismatched microfarad value will not strike the lamp correctly.
4) Can I put this 70W HPS ballast on a dimmer or a photocell-plus-dimming control?
No dimming. This is a non-dimmable magnetic HID ballast with a ballast factor of 1, so it runs the lamp at full rated output whenever power is applied. A photocell or contactor that switches the circuit on and off is fine; any 0-10V or phase-cut dimming control is not. If a facility is being spec'd for dimming or occupancy-based level changes, HPS on a magnetic ballast is the wrong platform.
5) Is this ballast approved for a commercial exterior fixture, and what protection does it have if it overheats?
It carries UL recognition and a CSA certificate, and it is RoHS compliant. Thermal protection is Class P, which means an integral thermal cutout opens the circuit if the windings run hot and resets once it cools. For an MRO or municipal spec that calls for thermally protected HID ballasts, Class P is the designation inspectors look for. Built in the USA.
6) What is the difference between pulse start and probe start on a 70W HPS ballast, and which do I need?
All HPS ballasts are pulse start, and this one is no exception: an igniter sends a high voltage pulse to strike the sodium arc, then the reactor takes over. Probe start applies to older metal halide, not HPS. So if you are replacing a 70W HPS ballast, pulse start is simply what you are buying, and the deciding spec is the S62 ANSI code rather than the start method.
