100 Watt Square Explosion Proof LED Light | 14000 Lumens | Class 1 Div 1 | 5000K | 100V-277V or 277V-480V

Product Overview

This 100 Watt Square Explosion Proof LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. It delivers 14,000 lumens at 5000K, providing clear, high-visibility illumination in environments that require strict safety compliance. The fixture is built for use in Class I, Division 1 and Division 2, as well as Class II and III hazardous areas, and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.

Typical installations include paint booths, chemical processing facilities, and oil and gas environments where explosion proof lighting is required. The yoke mount design supports flexible positioning on ceilings, walls, or structural supports. This fixture is a direct replacement for 200W metal halide units, offering improved efficiency and reduced maintenance in demanding locations.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 14,000 lumens at 100 watts, achieving 140 lumens per watt. The standard 120° beam angle provides wide coverage, with optional 40°, 60°, and 90° optics available for more controlled distribution. Color temperature is 5000K, supporting high-contrast visibility in industrial settings. Power factor exceeds 0.95 and total harmonic distortion is below 10% for stable electrical performance.

At mounting heights between 12 and 25 feet, the fixture provides uniform coverage for most hazardous location tasks. Excessive output may cause glare at lower mounting heights or in confined spaces. Uniformity may decrease at mounting heights above 25 feet without supplemental fixtures or narrower optics.

Adjustability and Control Options

The yoke mount allows for precise aiming and secure installation on flat or angled surfaces. The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for integration with compatible control systems, enabling light level adjustment based on operational needs or occupancy. Multiple beam angle options allow adaptation to specific area requirements or task zones.

Standard dimming and optical flexibility support both general area and task-specific lighting in hazardous environments. No integrated motion or daylight sensors are included; external controls must be specified if required.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is rated for 50,000 hours (L70), supporting long-term operation in continuous-use environments. The copper-free aluminum housing resists corrosion and is suitable for marine and chemical exposure. The tempered glass lens provides impact resistance and maintains optical clarity over time.

IP66 and IK10 ratings ensure protection against dust, water ingress, and mechanical impact. The fixture operates reliably in temperatures from -22°F to 122°F. Surge protection is rated at 10kV, supporting stable operation in facilities with variable power quality.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from copper-free aluminum with a gray finish, minimizing corrosion in harsh or marine environments. The fixture measures 15.7 x 11.2 x 9.96 inches and weighs 26.9 lbs. The tempered glass lens is sealed to prevent ingress of dust and liquids.

All hardware and seals are designed for hazardous location compliance. The fixture is suitable for wet locations and marine outside type installations. The yoke mount provides secure attachment to structural surfaces, with all mounting points reinforced for vibration and impact resistance.

Where This Product Fits Best

This explosion proof LED fixture is intended for hazardous locations where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. It is commonly installed in environments requiring Class I, II, or III compliance, including paint booths and chemical processing areas. The fixture is also suitable for marine and offshore applications where corrosion resistance and ingress protection are critical.

• explosion proof lighting
• paint booth lighting
• chemical processing facility lighting
• oil and gas facility lighting
• refinery lighting
• marine environment lighting
• wastewater treatment lighting

Environmental characteristics include high resistance to dust, water, and corrosive agents. The fixture is suitable for both indoor and outdoor hazardous areas, including marine and offshore platforms. Not intended for use in non-classified general industrial or commercial spaces.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The fixture is designed for yoke mounting to ceilings, walls, or structural supports. All wiring and conduit entries must comply with hazardous location requirements. The fixture supports both 100-277V and 277-480V input, allowing integration with standard industrial power systems.

Routine maintenance is minimized due to the sealed housing and long-life LED array. Lens cleaning and periodic inspection of seals are recommended in environments with heavy dust or chemical exposure. Replacement of the fixture is typically not required within the rated service life under normal operating conditions.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Common mounting heights range from 12 to 25 feet, depending on the area and required light levels. Fixtures are typically spaced to provide overlapping coverage, with spacing adjusted based on beam angle and task requirements. In paint booths and process areas, fixtures are often installed in grid or perimeter layouts for uniform illumination.

Higher output allows for reduced fixture count in large open areas, but may increase glare if installed too close to work surfaces. Narrower optics can be used to focus light on specific zones or reduce spill in confined spaces.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844 for hazardous locations, including Class I, Division 1 and 2 (Groups A, B, C, D), Class II, Division 1 and 2 (Groups E, F, G), and Class III. Additional certifications include UL 1598, UL 1598A Marine Outside Type, and ABS. The fixture is IP66 and IK10 rated.

Operating temperature is -22°F to 122°F. Surge protection is 10kV. The product includes a 5-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and performance.
