150 Watt Round Explosion Proof LED Light | 21000 Lumens | Class 1 Div 1 | 5000K | 100V-277V or 277V-480V

Product Overview

We supply a 150 Watt Round Explosion Proof LED Light designed for hazardous location lighting, paint booth lighting, and chemical processing environments. This fixture is engineered for use in areas where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. Typical installations include Class I Division 1 and Division 2 locations, with mounting heights commonly ranging from 14 to 25 feet depending on required light levels and layout.

This model is a direct replacement for 400W metal halide fixtures, offering improved efficiency and reduced maintenance. The fixture supports both yoke and 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting, providing flexibility for ceiling, wall, or pendant installations in classified spaces.

Core Performance and Output

This explosion proof LED delivers 21,000 lumens at 150 watts, with a system efficacy of 140 lumens per watt. The 5000K color temperature provides a neutral white output suitable for task visibility in hazardous environments. The fixture uses a 120° beam angle for broad, uniform coverage in open areas and work zones.

Electrical performance includes a power factor above 0.95 and total harmonic distortion below 10%. The fixture operates on 100V-277V or 277V-480V input, supporting both standard and high voltage systems. Output may be excessive for mounting heights below 12 feet, and uniformity can decrease at heights above 25 feet without careful layout.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for integration with compatible dimming controls or energy management systems. Dimming allows for output adjustment to match task requirements or reduce energy use during low-occupancy periods.

Mounting options include a heavy-duty yoke bracket for surface or ceiling mounting, and a 3/4 inch NPT pendant for suspended installations. The yoke allows for vertical aiming adjustment to direct light where needed.

Longevity and Reliability

This explosion proof LED is rated for 50,000 hours (L70), minimizing relamping and maintenance in hazardous or hard-to-access areas. The fixture includes 10kV surge protection to guard against electrical disturbances common in industrial environments.

Operating temperature range is -22°F to 122°F, supporting year-round use in both indoor and outdoor classified locations. The fixture is backed by a 5-year warranty.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from copper-free aluminum for corrosion resistance and durability in chemical, marine, or solvent-rich environments. The tempered glass lens provides impact resistance and protects internal components from dust and moisture.

The fixture is IP66 rated for dust-tight and powerful water jet protection, and IK10 rated for high impact resistance. Dimensions are 16 x 13.5 inches, with a weight of 39 lbs. Fixture color is gray for industrial compatibility.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is designed for hazardous locations where explosion proof construction is required. It is suitable for environments with flammable gases, vapors, or dusts, and where routine cleaning or washdown may occur. Typical installations include:

• 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

The fixture withstands exposure to corrosive agents, high humidity, and direct water spray. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor classified areas, including marine and offshore applications.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Mounting options support both yoke and pendant installations. The yoke bracket is suitable for ceiling or wall mounting, while the 3/4 inch NPT pendant is used for suspended applications. Secure mounting to rigid structures is required due to the fixture?s weight and hazardous location requirements.

All wiring and conduit connections must comply with hazardous location codes and standards. Routine inspection of seals and gaskets is recommended to maintain ingress protection. The fixture?s robust construction and long service life reduce the frequency of maintenance in classified areas.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Common mounting heights range from 14 to 25 feet, depending on the area size and required light levels. Fixtures are typically spaced to provide uniform coverage in open work zones, process areas, or paint booths. In chemical or marine environments, spacing may be adjusted to account for obstructions or reflective surfaces.

Higher output allows for wider spacing and reduced fixture count, but may increase glare if installed too low or without proper aiming. Layout should consider both task illumination and compliance with hazardous location requirements.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844 for hazardous locations, including 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. It is also UL 1598 and UL 1598A listed for wet locations and marine outside type environments. Additional certifications include ABS, ATEX, and IECEx.

The fixture is IP66 and IK10 rated, with 10kV surge protection. Warranty coverage is 5 years from date of installation.
