100 Watt Explosion Proof 2x4 Low Profile Linear LED Light | 14000 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | Class 2 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V

Product Overview

This 100 watt explosion proof 2x4 low profile linear LED light delivers 14,000 lumens at 5000K color temperature. The fixture is UL 844 listed for hazardous locations including Class 1, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; Class 2, Division 1, Groups F, G; and Class 3 environments. It replaces 250 watt metal halide fixtures.

The unit operates on 100-277V input at 50-60Hz with a power factor greater than .95 and THD below 10%. At 140 lumens per watt, this fixture provides high output efficiency in a form factor that measures 49 inches long by 23 inches wide by 3.7 inches high. Weight is 88 pounds.

A polycarbonate lens provides optical protection with a 120-degree beam angle. The fixture supports 1-10V dimming and carries a CRI of 70+. Rated lifespan is 50,000 hours at L70.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is built for hazardous location installations where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts may be present. The Class 1, Division 2 rating covers areas where ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors are not normally present but may exist under abnormal conditions. The Class 2, Division 1 rating covers locations where combustible dust is present in the air under normal operating conditions.

The low profile form factor at 3.7 inches in height makes this fixture appropriate for spaces with limited ceiling clearance where a standard explosion proof housing would not fit. The 2x4 footprint aligns with standard suspended ceiling grid layouts and provides broad coverage from a single fixture location.

Operating temperature range is -22°F to 122°F, supporting installations in cold storage environments, outdoor process areas, and indoor manufacturing spaces that experience temperature variation.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The 14,000 lumen output at 100 watts positions this fixture as a direct replacement for 250 watt metal halide systems in hazardous locations. The 5000K color temperature produces a daylight appearance that supports visibility in task-oriented environments.

The 120-degree beam angle distributes light broadly across the work area. For applications requiring dimming, the fixture accepts 1-10V dimming signals and can be integrated with compatible controls. CRI of 70+ is sufficient for general industrial visibility but may not meet requirements for color-critical inspection tasks.

The 50,000-hour L70 rated lifespan reduces lamp replacement frequency compared to metal halide sources, which is a practical consideration in hazardous locations where maintenance access is restricted or requires shutdown procedures.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Three mounting methods are supported: chain-cable suspension, recessed ceiling installation, and surface mounting. At 88 pounds, this fixture requires appropriate structural support and typically a two-person installation. The 100-277V input accommodates the voltage ranges found in most commercial and industrial electrical systems.

The IP66 rating means the fixture is protected against dust ingress and powerful water jets from any direction. The IK09 rating means the enclosure can withstand moderate mechanical impact without damage to internal components. These ratings support installation in washdown areas, outdoor covered locations, and spaces where physical contact with the fixture is possible.

The polycarbonate lens provides optical clarity while resisting impact. The NSF rating indicates suitability for installation in food processing or food handling environments where sanitation requirements apply.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Facilities typically install this fixture in paint spray booths, chemical processing areas, grain handling facilities, fuel dispensing areas, and manufacturing spaces where hazardous atmospheres may occur. The low profile design allows installation in rooms with ductwork, piping, or other overhead obstructions that limit available ceiling depth.

Once installed, the 1-10V dimming capability allows operators to adjust light levels based on shift requirements or task needs when connected to compatible dimming controls. The broad 120-degree beam angle means fewer fixtures are typically needed to cover a given floor area compared to narrow-beam alternatives.

The fixture''s weight and hazardous location rating mean that maintenance or replacement involves more planning than standard fixtures. The 50,000-hour rated lifespan extends the interval between service events, which matters in spaces where work stoppage or hot work permits are required for overhead access.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
