50 Watt LED High Temperature Light | 6500 Lumens | 5000K | 100V-277V or 277V-480V | Rated to 176F

Product Overview

This 50 watt LED high temperature light delivers 6,500 lumens at 5000K color temperature, replacing 175 watt metal halide fixtures. The fixture operates across an extended temperature range from -40°F to 176°F, making it suitable for environments where standard LED fixtures would fail or derate.

Two voltage configurations are available: 100V-277V and 277V-480V. The die-cast aluminum housing measures 12.1 x 14.4 x 9.6 inches and weighs 17.2 pounds. A polycarbonate lens protects the LEDs while providing a standard 110-degree beam angle, with optional 30-degree, 90-degree, or 140-degree optics available.

Mounting options include eye-hook and trunnion configurations. The fixture is not dimmable. Rated lifespan is 100,000 hours at L70.

Where This Product Fits Best

The 176°F maximum operating temperature rating is the defining characteristic of this fixture. Standard LED high bays typically derate or fail in sustained high-heat environments. This fixture is built for foundries, forges, glass manufacturing, bakeries, boiler rooms, laundry facilities, and industrial process areas where ambient temperatures exceed what conventional fixtures tolerate.

The -40°F low-end rating also supports cold storage, freezer applications, and unheated outdoor enclosures. IP66 and IK10 ratings allow installation in wash-down areas, food processing, and locations subject to physical impact or high-pressure cleaning.

At 6,500 lumens and 50 watts, this fixture fits lower mounting heights or areas requiring moderate light output. It is not intended for high-ceiling warehouse applications where 20,000+ lumen fixtures are typically specified.

Performance and Functional Considerations

Output is 6,500 lumens at 130 lumens per watt. CRI is 70+, which is adequate for industrial and warehouse applications but may not meet requirements for color-critical inspection or retail environments. The 5000K color temperature produces a neutral white appearance consistent with industrial lighting standards.

The standard 110-degree beam angle provides broad coverage for general area lighting. The optional 30-degree optic concentrates output for aisle or task-specific applications, while the 90-degree and 140-degree options offer intermediate and wide distributions.

Power factor is .95 and THD is 20% maximum. The fixture includes 12kV surge protection. This fixture does not dim.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The fixture mounts via eye-hook or trunnion. Eye-hook mounting is typical for chain or pendant suspension. Trunnion mounting allows direct attachment to structure with adjustable aiming. At 17.2 pounds, the fixture requires appropriate structural support and hardware rated for the weight.

Two voltage ranges are available. Confirm your facility voltage before installation. The 100V-277V version covers most standard commercial service. The 277V-480V version supports industrial three-phase systems.

IP66 rating means the fixture is protected against dust ingress and high-pressure water jets. IK10 rating means the housing withstands significant mechanical impact. These ratings support installation in wash-down environments and locations where equipment contact or debris impact is possible. The 100,000-hour rated lifespan reduces relamping frequency in hard-to-access or high-heat locations where maintenance access is costly or hazardous.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Facilities use this fixture where heat tolerance is the primary selection driver. In foundries and metalworking plants, it mounts in areas near furnaces, heat treatment equipment, or casting lines where radiant and ambient heat would damage standard fixtures. In commercial bakeries and food processing, it handles elevated temperatures near ovens and cooking equipment while meeting wash-down requirements.

The beam angle options allow configuration based on mounting height and coverage needs. Facilities select the 30-degree optic for narrow aisle or rack lighting, the standard 110-degree for general area coverage, and the 140-degree for low-mount wide distribution. Trunnion mounting allows aiming adjustments after installation to fine-tune coverage.

In cold storage and freezer applications, the -40°F rating ensures the fixture starts and operates reliably without warm-up delays or cold-related failures.
