Philips Advance 1000 W HID Ballast Kit

The Philips Advance 71A8773001 kit provides a magnetic ballast for a single high-pressure sodium lamp. It is intended for commercial and industrial lighting installations that require reliable pulse-start operation. The unit supports ANSI code S52 lamps and operates on multi-tap input voltages of 120, 208, 240 and 277 V AC at 60 Hz.

Single-lamp capacity with 1100 W input

The ballast drives one lamp up to 1000 W while drawing 1100 W from the supply. It starts reliably down to -40 °F, making it suitable for cold-storage or outdoor environments. The ballast factor of 1 delivers full rated lumen output, but the kit cannot support multiple lamps or metal-halide bulb types.

Kit includes ballast and mounting hardware

The packaged kit supplies the magnetic ballast core and coil assembly plus the mounting hardware needed for direct installation. No additional capacitors or ignitors are required for pulse-start operation. The bundle eliminates the need to source separate components, reducing wiring time on site.

Questions about this item

Will the 120/208/240/277 V AC input on this 1000 W HID ballast kit work with my existing 240 V workshop wiring?

Yes, the ballast accepts 120, 208, 240 and 277 V AC at 60 Hz, so a standard 240 V circuit is supported without modification.

How can I confirm the ballast is operating correctly once installed?

The lamp should strike reliably at temperatures down to -40 °F and run at the rated 1000 W with a ballast factor of 1, indicating full design output.

Does the kit include the high-pressure sodium lamp or only the magnetic ballast?

The kit contains the magnetic pulse-start ballast for one S52-coded 1000 W high-pressure sodium lamp; the bulb itself must be purchased separately.
