40 Watt Explosion Proof Jelly Jar LED Light | 5600 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V | Surface Mount | Pendant Mount | Wall Mount

Product Overview

The 40 Watt Explosion Proof Jelly Jar LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts are present. This fixture delivers 5600 lumens at 5000K and is suitable for Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III environments. It is commonly installed as a replacement for 175W metal halide fixtures in chemical processing, paint booths, and similar hazardous areas.

Surface, wall, or 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting options allow for flexible installation in confined or exposed locations. The fixture is built to withstand harsh industrial and marine environments, supporting both indoor and outdoor hazardous area requirements.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 5600 lumens at 40 watts, providing an efficacy of 140 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle delivers wide, uniform coverage suitable for task and general area lighting in hazardous zones. Color temperature is 5000K with a CRI above 70, supporting clear visibility in work areas.

Electrical performance includes 100-277V input, 1-10V dimming, power factor above 0.95, and THD below 10%. Output is appropriate for mounting heights up to approximately 12-18 feet. Excessive output may occur at lower mounting heights in small rooms or corridors.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for integration with compatible dimming systems. This allows for light level adjustment based on operational needs or energy management requirements. No onboard sensor or advanced control options are included.

Beam distribution is fixed at 120°, with no field-adjustable optics. Mounting orientation can be changed using the available surface, wall, or pendant mounting options to direct light as needed.

Longevity and Reliability

L70 rated life is 50,000 hours, supporting long-term operation in demanding environments. The fixture is constructed with copper-free aluminum housing and a robust lens, minimizing corrosion and impact damage.

IP66 and IK10 ratings provide protection against water, dust, and mechanical impact. The fixture is designed for continuous use in hazardous and marine environments with minimal maintenance requirements.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

Routine maintenance is minimal due to the sealed design and long LED life. Access for cleaning or inspection is straightforward, but all work should follow hazardous location safety protocols. The fixture is compatible with standard hazardous location wiring methods.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 8 to 18 feet, depending on the area and required light levels. Fixtures are often spaced to provide uniform coverage in corridors, process areas, or booth interiors. Layouts may use single or multiple units based on room size and hazard classification.

Spacing and fixture count vary with mounting height and target illumination. Higher output can reduce the number of fixtures needed but may increase glare in confined spaces. For best results, coordinate layout with hazard zone boundaries and task requirements.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844, UL 1598, UL 1598A, and ABS standards. It 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 hazardous locations. IP66 and IK10 ratings apply.

The product includes a 5-year warranty. All certifications and ratings are listed on the product label and documentation. The fixture is suitable for use in hazardous, marine, and wet locations as defined by its certifications.
