Product Overview
This 40 Watt LED Explosion Proof Jelly Jar Light delivers 5600 lumens at 5000K from a compact form factor built for hazardous location installations. 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 environments under UL 844. It replaces 175 Watt metal halide fixtures while operating across 100-277V input.
The housing is copper free aluminum with a standard clear glass lens. Red, blue, green, and amber glass colors are also available. The fixture measures 9 x 13 inches and weighs 14 lbs. Mounting options include surface mount, wall mount, or 3/4 inch NPT pendant mount.
Where This Product Fits Best
This fixture is designed for locations where ignitable gases, vapors, dusts, or fibers may be present. The Class I Division 2 rating covers areas where flammable gases or vapors are handled but not normally present in ignitable concentrations during standard operations. The Class II Division 1 and Division 2 ratings cover combustible dust environments across Groups E, F, and G.
The UL 1598 Wet Location rating and UL 1598A Marine Outside Type certification allow installation in exposed outdoor environments, including marine and coastal applications. ABS certification supports use in shipboard and offshore installations where classification society approval is required.
Facilities that commonly require this classification include petrochemical plants, grain handling operations, paint finishing areas, fuel storage facilities, and marine vessels.
Performance and Functional Considerations
At 140 lumens per watt, this fixture produces 5600 lumens from 40 watts of input power. The 5000K color temperature provides a neutral white output suitable for task visibility in industrial spaces. CRI is rated at 70+.
The 120-degree beam angle provides broad distribution from a single point source. The 50,000-hour L70 lifespan reduces the frequency of lamp replacements in locations where access may require safety lockouts or confined space procedures.
The driver accepts 1-10V dimming input for integration with existing control systems where light level adjustment is needed. Power factor is greater than 0.95 and THD is below 10%, supporting clean electrical load characteristics on facility circuits.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Three mounting configurations are supported: direct surface mount, wall mount, or pendant mount using a 3/4 inch NPT threaded connection. The 14 lb weight requires secure fastening to structural surfaces or properly rated pendant conduit.
IP66 ingress protection allows the fixture to withstand high-pressure water jets and complete dust exclusion. IK10 impact resistance protects against direct mechanical contact equivalent to heavy tool drops or equipment strikes. These ratings support reliable operation in washdown environments and areas with forklift traffic or overhead crane activity.
The copper free aluminum housing eliminates corrosion risk in environments where copper would react with process chemicals. This also satisfies material requirements for certain hazardous location equipment standards.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Operators typically use this fixture as a direct replacement for 175 Watt metal halide jelly jars in hazardous classified areas. The compact size allows it to fit existing mounting locations without structural modifications in most cases.
The colored glass options are commonly used for status indication, emergency egress marking, or aviation obstruction lighting where red or other colors are specified. Facilities with color-coded safety zones may specify different lens colors for different areas.
Where 1-10V dimming is connected, operators can reduce output during low-activity periods or adjust light levels based on ambient conditions. The fixture operates on both 50Hz and 60Hz power supplies, supporting installation in facilities with international equipment or generator backup systems.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
