2 Head 10 Watt Explosion Proof LED Emergency Light | Class 1 Div 1

Product Overview

This 2 Head 10 Watt Explosion Proof LED Emergency Light is designed for hazardous location emergency egress and safety lighting. It is built for use in environments where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts are present, and where Class I, II, or III Division 1 and 2 compliance is required. The fixture operates at 10 watts, delivering 1300 lumens at 5000K, and is suitable for wall mounting in industrial, chemical, and marine facilities.

The fixture is constructed with a die-cast aluminum housing and is rated for use in wet, corrosive, and marine environments. Typical installations include chemical processing plants, oil and gas facilities, and marine structures where emergency illumination must remain operational during hazardous events.

Core Performance and Output

This emergency light provides 1300 lumens from two adjustable LED heads, offering reliable illumination for egress paths and critical areas. The fixture operates at 10 watts with a system efficacy of 130 lumens per watt. It is designed for 100-277V input and maintains a power factor above 0.95 with total harmonic distortion below 10%.

The beam distribution is fixed, optimized for wall-mounted emergency coverage in hazardous locations. Output is appropriate for mounting heights up to 10 feet; higher mounting may reduce floor-level illumination uniformity. Excessive output is not a concern for emergency egress applications at standard mounting heights.

Adjustability and Control Options

Each LED head is independently adjustable to direct light where needed along egress routes or toward specific hazards. The fixture does not include dimming or advanced control features, as required by emergency lighting codes for hazardous locations.

Operation is automatic during power loss, with no manual override or remote control integration. The unit is designed for straightforward emergency operation without user intervention.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is rated for 50,000 hours (L70) and includes a 5-year warranty. The die-cast aluminum housing and IP66/IK10 ratings provide resistance to water, dust, and mechanical impact. Surge protection is rated at 10kV, supporting reliable operation in electrically noisy or storm-prone environments.

Battery backup and emergency operation are designed for hazardous and marine environments, with all components sealed against moisture and corrosive agents. Maintenance requirements are minimal under normal operating conditions.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is die-cast aluminum with a powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance. The fixture measures 15.6 x 14.7 inches and weighs 17.6 lbs. All external hardware is designed for durability in harsh industrial and marine settings.

The fixture is rated IP66 for water and dust ingress and IK10 for impact resistance. It is suitable for installation in locations subject to washdown, salt spray, and physical abuse. Wall mounting is standard, with all necessary brackets included.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is intended for hazardous and explosion-prone environments requiring emergency egress lighting. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use in locations where flammable gases, vapors, dusts, or fibers may be present. The fixture is also appropriate for marine and offshore applications where corrosion and water ingress are concerns.

• hazardous location lighting
• explosion proof lighting
• chemical processing facility lighting
• marine environment lighting
• oil and gas facility lighting
• refinery lighting
• offshore rig lighting
• wastewater treatment lighting

Environmental characteristics include suitability for Class I, II, and III Division 1 and 2 hazardous areas, marine and wet locations, and areas exposed to corrosive agents or mechanical impact.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The fixture is designed for wall mounting using included hardware. All wiring and conduit entries are sealed for hazardous location compliance. Installation should follow all local and national codes for Class I, II, and III Division 1 and 2 environments.

Routine inspection of battery and test functions is recommended per facility safety protocols. The fixture is designed for minimal maintenance, with all serviceable components accessible without removing the entire unit from the wall.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting height is 7 to 10 feet above finished floor, positioned near exits, egress paths, or hazardous process areas. Fixtures are spaced to provide overlapping emergency coverage, with spacing determined by required light levels and area geometry.

In chemical plants and marine environments, units are installed at all designated emergency exits and along primary escape routes. Spacing may be reduced in areas with complex layouts or obstructions. Higher output per fixture can reduce fixture count but may increase installation cost.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844, UL 924, UL 1598A, UL 1598, and UL 8750. It is rated for Class I, Division 1, Groups C, D; Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; Class II, Division 1, Groups E, F, G; Class II, Division 2, Groups F, G; and Class III hazardous locations. Additional ratings include IP66, IK10, and ETL listing.

The product includes a 5-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and performance. All certifications and ratings are maintained for the full warranty period under normal use.
