27 Watt Explosion Proof Jelly Jar LED Light | 3780 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | Class 2 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V | Surface Mount | Pendant Mount | Wall Mount

Product Overview

This 27 watt LED explosion proof jelly jar fixture delivers 3780 lumens at 5000K, designed as a direct replacement for 175 watt metal halide fixtures in hazardous locations. The compact jelly jar form factor fits applications where space is limited but classified area compliance is required.

The fixture is rated for Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, D and Class II Division 1 Groups E, F, G as well as Class II Division 2 Groups F, G and Class III environments. It carries UL 844 listing for hazardous locations and UL 1598A Marine Outside Type certification with ABS approval for marine applications.

Clear glass is standard. Red, blue, green, and amber glass options are available for applications requiring signal differentiation or specific visual identification in the workspace.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is built for hazardous classified areas where ignitable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts may be present. Class I Division 2 coverage includes locations where flammable concentrations exist only under abnormal conditions. Class II Division 1 and Division 2 ratings extend use into environments with combustible dust.

The UL 1598A Marine Outside Type rating and ABS approval make this fixture suitable for offshore platforms, shipboard installations, and coastal industrial facilities exposed to salt air and marine conditions. The wet location rating allows installation where direct water exposure occurs.

At 9 inches by 13 inches and 14 pounds, the jelly jar profile works well in confined mechanical rooms, pump stations, battery charging areas, grain handling facilities, and similar spaces where larger explosion proof fixtures would be impractical.

Performance and Functional Considerations

Output is 3780 lumens at 140 lumens per watt, significantly more efficient than the 175 watt metal halide fixtures this unit replaces. The 120 degree beam angle provides broad coverage from a single point source, appropriate for general area illumination in smaller classified spaces.

Color temperature is fixed at 5000K with a CRI of 70+. This delivers a cool white appearance with adequate color differentiation for most industrial tasks. The fixture operates on 100-277V input at 50-60Hz with a power factor above 0.95 and THD under 10%.

The driver supports 1-10V dimming for integration with building management systems or manual dimmer controls where light level adjustment is needed. Rated lifespan is 50,000 hours at L70, which represents the point where output declines to 70% of initial lumens.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Three mounting methods are supported: pendant, surface, and wall. This allows the same fixture to be positioned overhead, mounted directly to a ceiling or structural surface, or installed on vertical walls depending on the application and available mounting points.

The housing is copper free aluminum, which resists corrosion in marine and chemical environments where copper content can accelerate material degradation. IP66 rating means the fixture is protected against dust ingress and high-pressure water jets from any direction. IK10 impact rating means the fixture withstands significant mechanical impact without compromising the enclosure.

At 14 pounds, the fixture requires adequate structural support at the mounting location. Pendant installations in particular should account for this weight plus any vibration or movement in the environment.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Operators typically select this fixture when they need compliant lighting in a small hazardous area without the bulk of larger explosion proof luminaires. The jelly jar style fits well in tight equipment rooms, along catwalks, and at entry points to classified zones where a compact profile matters.

The colored glass options see use in facilities that color-code areas by hazard type or process zone. Red or amber lenses are sometimes specified near emergency equipment or in areas requiring low visual disruption at night. The 1-10V dimming capability allows operators to reduce output during low-activity periods or when full brightness is unnecessary.

In marine environments, the combination of wet location rating, ABS approval, and copper free construction addresses the corrosion and certification requirements that govern shipboard and offshore platform installations.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL 844 listed for hazardous locations and UL 1598 listed as suitable for wet locations. UL 1598A Marine Outside Type certification and ABS approval are also carried. The fixture is rebate eligible.

We back this fixture with a 5 year warranty.
