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

Product Overview

This 100 Watt Explosion Proof 2x4 Low Profile Linear LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts are present. The fixture delivers 14,000 lumens at 5000K, providing clear, high-visibility illumination in classified environments. It is suitable for use in areas requiring Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D protection, as well as Class II and III locations.

The low-profile linear form factor allows for installation in spaces with limited ceiling height or where overhead clearance is restricted. Typical deployment includes paint booths, chemical processing areas, and solvent storage rooms, where both safety and uniform light distribution are required. The fixture is a direct replacement for 250W metal halide units in hazardous environments.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 14,000 lumens at 100 watts, achieving an efficacy of 140 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, even coverage suitable for open hazardous areas and work zones. Color temperature is 5000K for high-contrast visibility. Power factor exceeds 0.95, and total harmonic distortion is below 10% for stable electrical performance.

Uniformity is consistent at standard mounting heights for hazardous location lighting. Excessive output may occur if installed below 10 feet, and uniformity may decrease if spacing exceeds recommended patterns in large open areas. The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for output adjustment as needed.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture includes 1-10V dimming capability for integration with compatible control systems. This allows for manual or automated adjustment of light levels to match operational requirements or energy management protocols. No onboard occupancy or daylight sensors are included; external controls must be specified if required.

Mounting options include chain-cable, recessed, or surface installation, supporting flexibility in both new construction and retrofit scenarios. The fixture?s linear design enables alignment with aisle or booth layouts for targeted illumination.

Longevity and Reliability

Rated for 50,000 hours (L70), this fixture is designed for long-term operation in demanding hazardous environments. The LED driver and light engine are sealed against dust, moisture, and chemical ingress. Operating temperature range is -22°F to 122°F, supporting year-round use in both conditioned and unconditioned spaces.

IP66 and IK09 ratings confirm resistance to water jets, dust, and mechanical impact. The fixture is suitable for continuous operation in locations with frequent washdowns or airborne contaminants. Maintenance intervals are minimized compared to legacy HID solutions.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed for hazardous location use, with a polycarbonate lens and robust enclosure. The fixture measures 49 inches long by 23 inches wide and 3.7 inches high, with a total weight of 88 lbs. All components are sealed to prevent ingress of flammable gases, dusts, and liquids.

NSF rating supports use in environments where food safety or cleanability is required. The low-profile design allows installation in areas with limited overhead clearance or where space is constrained by process equipment.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is intended for classified hazardous locations where explosion proof or vapor-tight lighting is required. It is commonly installed in environments with flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts, as well as areas subject to frequent washdowns or chemical exposure.

• hazardous location lighting
• explosion proof lighting
• paint booth lighting
• chemical processing facility lighting
• oil and gas facility lighting
• refinery lighting
• wastewater treatment lighting
• solvent storage area lighting

Environmental characteristics include high humidity, airborne particulates, chemical vapors, and the potential for explosive atmospheres. The fixture is suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor use in these settings.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Chain-cable, recessed, and surface mounting options are supported. The fixture?s weight and size require secure mounting to structural supports rated for hazardous locations. All wiring and connections must comply with local and national codes for classified areas.

Routine cleaning and inspection are simplified by the IP66 and NSF ratings. The fixture is designed for minimal maintenance, with no lamp or ballast replacements required. Long-term reliability is supported by robust construction and sealed electronics.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 10 to 20 feet, depending on the application and required light levels. In paint booths and process areas, fixtures are spaced to provide uniform coverage and minimize shadowing. Linear alignment is used in aisles or along work zones.

Spacing and layout patterns vary based on the size of the area and the presence of obstructions. Higher output reduces the total fixture count but may require careful placement to avoid glare or excessive brightness in confined spaces.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844 for hazardous locations and meets Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; Class II, Division 1, Groups F, G; and Class III requirements. It carries IP66, IK09, and NSF ratings. The product is covered by a 5-year warranty.

All safety and certification requirements for hazardous, chemical, and washdown environments are met. The fixture is suitable for use in regulated facilities and supports compliance with relevant codes and standards.
