This fixture is designed to replace traditional 1000 Watt metal halide lights, offering a more efficient and durable solution. Suitable for environments requiring Class I, Division 2 compliance, it operates effectively within a voltage range of 100V-277V or 277V-480V.

With its robust construction, this light is ideal for use in paint booths and other hazardous locations where safety and reliability are paramount. The fixture's IP66 rating ensures protection against dust and water, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Core Performance and Output

This explosion-proof LED light provides a high output of 35,000 lumens with an efficiency of 140 lumens per watt. It features a standard beam angle of 120°, with optional angles of 40°, 60°, or 90° to suit various lighting needs. The fixture's electrical performance is supported by a power factor greater than 0.95 and a total harmonic distortion of less than 10%.

While the fixture is designed for high-output applications, excessive output may occur at low mounting heights, potentially leading to glare. It is recommended to consider the mounting height and beam angle to optimize light distribution and uniformity.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture includes 1-10V dimming capabilities, allowing for adjustable light levels to meet specific application requirements. This feature provides flexibility in controlling the lighting environment, enhancing energy savings and user comfort.

Mounting options include a yoke or 3/4 inch NPT pendant, offering versatility in installation to accommodate different structural setups and lighting needs.
