Part of the Philips Advance\/Signify 71A family, this ballast is specified for 150W MH lamps with ANSI codes M102 and M142 and is offered in quad-kit configurations (for example, 71A5493-500D). It accepts 120\/208\/240\/277 VAC at 60 Hz and uses an HX-HPF circuit topology to maintain stable lamp operation. The unit is designed to deliver a high power factor and a ballast factor near 1.0, supporting consistent light output across the full input voltage range. Typical applications include industrial and warehouse lighting, canopy and outdoor fixtures that use a single 150W MH lamp; the core-and-coil construction emphasizes reliability in commercial environments. This catalog number is documented across Philips Advance and distributor spec sheets as a 150W MH ballast in the 71A family, confirming its intended use with M102\/M142 lamps and corresponding ballasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Advance","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51657026797870,"sku":null,"price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_eb91be01-eddb-4fb4-bac6-a0b72735d927.jpg?v=1769465317","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/advance-71a5493-metal-halide-hid-ballast","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
