50 Watt Explosion Proof Linear LED Light | 7000 Lumens | Class 1 Div 1 | Class 2 Div 1 | 5000K | 100-277V

Product Overview

This 50 watt explosion proof linear LED fixture delivers 7000 lumens at 5000K, built specifically for Class I Division 1 and Class II Division 1 hazardous locations. The die-cast copper-free aluminum housing measures 24 x 5.5 x 8.1 inches and weighs 20 pounds. It operates on 100-277V input at 50-60Hz with a power factor greater than 0.95 and THD under 10%.

The fixture replaces 250 watt metal halide systems in hazardous location applications where fluorescent lighting was previously installed. A tempered glass lens provides optical protection with a 120-degree beam angle. The gray finish housing includes mounting options for yoke or 3/4 inch NPT pendant installation.

Rated lifespan is 50,000 hours at L70, with 1-10V dimming capability built in. CRI is 70+, suitable for industrial environments where color rendering is secondary to output and safety compliance.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is UL 844 listed for hazardous locations including Class I Division 1 Groups C and D, Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, and D, Class II Division 1 Groups E, F, and G, Class II Division 2 Groups F and G, and Class III environments. These classifications cover locations with ignitable fibers, combustible dust, and flammable gases or vapors.

UL 1598 listing confirms suitability for wet locations. UL 1598A Marine Outside Type listing and ABS certification extend use to marine and offshore applications where salt air and harsh weather exposure are factors.

The operating temperature range of -22°F to 122°F supports installation in cold storage entries, outdoor process areas, and heat-intensive industrial spaces within that envelope. IP66 and IK10 ratings allow use in washdown areas and locations subject to physical impact from equipment or material handling.

Performance and Functional Considerations

At 140 lumens per watt, this fixture produces 7000 lumens from 50 watts of input power. The 5000K color temperature provides a neutral daylight appearance common in industrial task lighting. The 120-degree beam angle distributes light broadly, typical for linear fixtures used in aisle or general area applications.

The 1-10V dimming input allows integration with compatible building automation or manual dimming controls. Power factor above 0.95 and THD below 10% indicate clean electrical characteristics suitable for facilities with sensitive equipment or strict power quality requirements.

The 250 watt metal halide replacement rating provides a baseline for output comparison when upgrading existing hazardous location lighting systems.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Two mounting configurations are supported: yoke mount and 3/4 inch NPT pendant. The yoke allows surface or suspended mounting with angular adjustment. NPT pendant mounting uses standard conduit fittings common in hazardous location installations.

At 20 pounds, the fixture requires appropriate structural support and hardware rated for hazardous environments. The copper-free aluminum housing resists corrosion in chemical and marine atmospheres.

IP66 rating means the fixture is protected against high-pressure water jets and total dust ingress. IK10 rating means the housing withstands significant mechanical impact. These characteristics reduce maintenance concern in aggressive industrial environments over the 50,000-hour rated life.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Facilities upgrading from fluorescent or metal halide in Class I or Class II hazardous areas use this fixture as a direct replacement where linear form factor is preferred. The yoke mount allows positioning adjustments after installation to address task lighting needs or coverage gaps without remounting.

The 1-10V dimming input is typically connected to existing dimming infrastructure or left at full output where dimming is not required. In washdown environments, the IP66 rating allows the fixture to remain in place during cleaning without covers or protective measures.

Offshore and marine installations rely on the UL 1598A and ABS certifications for compliance. The operating temperature range accommodates both refrigerated transition zones and warm process areas without derating concern within the stated limits.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL 844 listed for hazardous locations and UL 1598 listed for wet locations. UL 1598A Marine Outside Type listing and ABS certification are included. The fixture is ETL listed and NSF rated. It is rebate eligible under applicable utility programs.

We provide a 5-year warranty on this fixture.
