Product Overview

This 250 Watt Explosion Proof Round LED Light delivers 35,000 lumens at 140 lumens per watt with a 5000K color temperature. The fixture is rated for 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 locations under UL 844. It serves as a direct replacement for 1000 watt metal halide fixtures in hazardous classified areas.

The fixture is available in two voltage configurations: 100V-277V or 277V-480V. Wattage output can be set to 250, 300, or 400 watts, producing 35,000, 42,000, or 56,000 lumens respectively. A tempered glass lens protects the optical system, and the standard beam angle is 120 degrees with optional 40, 60, or 90 degree distributions available.

Construction uses copper-free aluminum housing with an IP66 rating and 10kV surge protection. The fixture measures 18.9 x 15.5 inches and weighs 37.5 pounds. It carries a gray finish and mounts via yoke or 3/4-inch NPT pendant.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is built for hazardous locations where flammable gases, vapors, dusts, or fibers may be present. The Class I Division 2 rating covers areas where ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors are not normally present under normal operating conditions. Class II Division 1 and Division 2 ratings cover combustible dust environments across Groups E, F, and G.

The UL 1598 Wet Location listing and UL 1598A Marine Outside Type certification make this fixture suitable for outdoor industrial installations, marine vessels, and offshore platforms. ABS certification confirms compliance for shipboard and marine applications.

Operating temperature range spans -40°F to 140°F, supporting deployment in cold storage facilities, outdoor process areas, and high-ambient industrial environments.

Performance and Functional Considerations

At the 250 watt setting, this fixture outputs 35,000 lumens. Increasing to 300 watts raises output to 42,000 lumens, and the 400 watt setting produces 56,000 lumens. All three wattage levels maintain 140 lumens per watt efficiency. The fixture operates at greater than 0.95 power factor with less than 10% total harmonic distortion.

The 5000K color temperature provides neutral white light suited to industrial task visibility. CRI is rated at 70 or higher. The standard 120-degree beam angle covers broad areas, while the optional 40, 60, or 90 degree optics allow tighter distribution for higher mounting heights or aisle-oriented layouts.

Dimming is supported via 1-10V protocol. L70 rated lifespan is 50,000 hours.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Mounting options include yoke mount for ceiling or structural attachment and 3/4-inch NPT pendant mount for suspended installations. The 37.5-pound weight requires adequate structural support and appropriate mounting hardware rated for the load and environment.

Voltage selection must be confirmed before installation. The 100V-277V and 277V-480V configurations are separate and must match site electrical service. The fixture accepts 50-60Hz input frequency.

IP66 rating allows direct exposure to high-pressure water jets and complete dust ingress protection. The 10kV surge protection provides resilience against transient voltage spikes common in industrial electrical systems. The copper-free aluminum housing resists corrosion in marine and chemical processing environments.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Facilities use this fixture in refineries, chemical plants, grain handling operations, paint spray areas, and similar classified locations where ignition sources must be controlled. The selectable wattage allows output adjustment based on actual light level requirements at the installed location without fixture replacement.

The beam angle options let installers match light distribution to space geometry. Narrow 40-degree optics concentrate output for high-bay applications or long drops, while the standard 120-degree spread suits lower mounting heights and general area coverage.

Marine and offshore installations rely on the UL 1598A and ABS certifications for deck lighting, equipment areas, and other exterior shipboard locations. The wide operating temperature range supports year-round outdoor use in extreme climates.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL 844 listed for hazardous locations, UL 1598 listed for wet locations, and UL 1598A certified as Marine Outside Type. ABS certification is included. The fixture is ETL listed and rebate eligible.

The IP66 rating means the fixture is protected against dust ingress and high-pressure water from any direction. This supports washdown environments and direct weather exposure.

We provide a 5-year warranty on this fixture.
