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

Product Overview

This 100 Watt Explosion Proof Linear LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting, including environments with flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts. The fixture delivers 14,000 lumens at 5000K, providing a clear, daylight-white output suitable for critical visibility in classified areas. Typical installations include paint booths, chemical processing facilities, and oil and gas sites where Class I, II, or III ratings are required.

The linear form factor and 47-inch length allow for even coverage in aisle, booth, or process area layouts. This fixture is a direct replacement for 400W metal halide units, offering reduced maintenance and improved energy efficiency. Mounting options include yoke or 3/4 inch NPT pendant, supporting both ceiling and wall installations in hazardous environments.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 14,000 lumens at 100 watts, achieving 140 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, uniform coverage for open or linear spaces. Color temperature is 5000K with a CRI above 70, supporting accurate color rendering in inspection and process areas. Power factor exceeds 0.95, and total harmonic distortion is below 10% for stable electrical performance.

1-10V dimming is standard, allowing integration with control systems for energy management or task tuning. At mounting heights below 10 feet, output may be excessive for small enclosures. Uniformity can decrease at mounting heights above 18 feet in open layouts without supplemental fixtures.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for output adjustment and compatibility with common hazardous location lighting controls. Dimming enables reduced energy use during non-critical operations or when full output is not required. No onboard occupancy or daylight sensors are included; external controls must be specified if needed.

Mounting is adjustable via yoke bracket for aiming or pendant for fixed vertical orientation. The tempered glass lens and sealed housing maintain hazardous location ratings regardless of mounting method.

Longevity and Reliability

L70 rated life is 50,000 hours, minimizing relamping cycles in restricted or hazardous areas. The fixture is constructed with copper-free aluminum housing and a tempered glass lens, supporting long-term operation in corrosive or high-particulate environments.

Operating temperature range is -22°F to 122°F. The fixture is IP66 and IK10 rated, providing full protection against dust, water jets, and high impact. All gaskets and seals are designed for hazardous location integrity over the service life.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is gray, copper-free aluminum with a tempered glass lens. The fixture measures 47 x 5.5 x 8.1 inches and weighs 26 lbs. All hardware is corrosion resistant. The design supports both yoke and pendant mounting, with all entries threaded for 3/4 inch NPT compatibility.

Ingress protection is IP66, and impact resistance is IK10. The fixture is suitable for wet locations and marine outside type environments. All wiring and terminations are accessible via threaded entries for hazardous location conduit systems.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is intended for classified hazardous locations where explosion proof or dust ignition proof lighting is required. It is commonly installed in environments with flammable gases, vapors, combustible dusts, or fibers. The linear form factor is suited for booth, aisle, or process area layouts where uniform coverage is needed.

• hazardous location lighting
• 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 full protection against water, dust, and impact, with certifications for Class I, II, and III hazardous locations. The fixture is also suitable for marine and offshore environments where corrosion and moisture are present.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Mounting options include yoke bracket for surface or wall installation and 3/4 inch NPT pendant for suspended mounting. All entries are threaded for hazardous location conduit. The fixture?s weight and length require secure mounting to rated structure or strut. Typical mounting heights range from 10 to 18 feet, depending on area size and required light levels.

Routine maintenance is limited to external cleaning and periodic inspection of seals and conduit entries. No relamping is required during the rated life. All serviceable components are accessible without compromising hazardous location integrity.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Common mounting heights are 10 to 18 feet, with fixtures spaced to achieve uniform coverage in booths, aisles, or process areas. Linear layouts are typical in paint booths and chemical processing lines. In oil and gas or marine environments, fixtures are often installed in rows along walkways or equipment platforms.

Spacing and fixture count depend on area size, reflectance, and required light levels. Higher output can reduce fixture quantity but may increase glare in confined spaces. Layouts should consider hazardous area zoning and conduit routing for compliance.

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, ABS, IP66, and IK10. NSF rated for use in food and beverage environments where required.

Warranty is 5 years. All certifications are maintained when installed according to manufacturer instructions and hazardous location codes.
