150 Watt Round Explosion Proof LED Light | 21000 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V | Optional 10 Year Warranty

Product Overview

This 150 Watt Round Explosion Proof LED Light is engineered for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. It delivers 21,000 lumens at 5000K, providing a high-output solution for environments requiring strict safety compliance. Typical installations include oil and gas facilities, chemical processing plants, and paint booths where Class I, II, and III hazardous ratings are required.

The fixture is designed to replace 400W metal halide units, offering improved efficiency and reduced maintenance. It supports both yoke and 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting, with optional surface or wall mounting for flexible installation in a range of hazardous and industrial settings.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 21,000 lumens at 150 watts, achieving 140 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, uniform coverage suitable for open hazardous areas and process spaces. The 5000K color temperature supports high-visibility tasks and general area illumination.

Electrical performance includes 100-277V operation, a power factor above 0.90, and THD below 10%. Dimming is supported via 1-10V controls. At mounting heights below 12 feet, output may be excessive for confined spaces. Uniformity can decrease at mounting heights above 25 feet without careful layout.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for output adjustment and integration with lighting control systems. This allows for energy management and adaptation to varying operational requirements. No onboard sensor options are included; external controls must be specified separately if needed.

Mounting adjustability is provided by the yoke bracket, allowing for precise aiming. The 3/4 inch NPT pendant mount supports vertical suspension from rigid conduit or hazardous-rated stems. Surface and wall mounting options are available for fixed installations.

Longevity and Reliability

The LED system is rated for 150,000 hours (L70), supporting long-term operation in demanding environments. The fixture includes 10kV surge protection to guard against electrical disturbances common in industrial settings.

Powder-coated aluminum housing and a tempered glass lens provide resistance to corrosion, impact, and chemical exposure. The IP66 and IK08 ratings ensure protection against dust, water jets, and mechanical impacts, supporting reliable performance in harsh locations.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The fixture housing is constructed from powder-coated aluminum for durability and corrosion resistance. The tempered glass lens protects the optics from impact and chemical exposure. The fixture measures 14.96 inches wide by 14.37 inches high and weighs 20 lbs.

Ingress protection is rated at IP66, and the fixture achieves IK08 impact resistance. The gray finish is standard. No cord is supplied; field wiring is required. The fixture is designed for both indoor and outdoor hazardous environments, including marine outside type locations.

Routine maintenance is minimized due to the long LED lifespan and robust construction. The fixture is designed for environments with dust, moisture, and corrosive agents. Periodic inspection of seals and mounting hardware is recommended in marine or high-vibration settings.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Common mounting heights range from 12 to 25 feet, depending on the area size and required light levels. Fixtures are typically spaced to achieve uniform coverage in process areas, storage zones, or hazardous workspaces. Yoke mounting allows for directional aiming to target specific zones or equipment.

In open hazardous areas, higher output can reduce fixture count but may increase glare if not properly aimed or shielded. Layouts should consider both safety code requirements and operational visibility needs.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844 for hazardous locations, including 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. Additional certifications include UL 1598, UL 1598A Marine Outside Type, CSA, ATEX, and IECEx. IP66 and IK08 ratings are standard.

Standard warranty is 5 years, with an optional 10-year warranty available. Surge protection is rated at 10kV. All certifications and ratings are maintained when installed according to manufacturer instructions and applicable codes.
