40 Watt Explosion Proof 2x2 Low Profile Linear LED Light | 5600 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V

Product Overview

This 40 Watt Explosion Proof 2x2 Low Profile Linear LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting where flammable vapors, gases, or combustible dusts are present. The fixture delivers 5600 lumens at 5000K, providing clear, uniform illumination in classified environments. Typical installations include paint booths, chemical processing areas, and solvent storage rooms where Class I, II, and III ratings are required.

The low-profile linear form factor allows for installation in spaces with limited ceiling clearance or where a compact fixture is preferred. This model is commonly used as a direct replacement for 150W or 250W metal halide fixtures in hazardous locations, supporting mounting heights in the 8?16 foot range depending on layout and light level requirements.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 5600 lumens at 40 watts, achieving an efficacy of 140 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, even coverage suitable for open hazardous areas and task zones. Color temperature is 5000K with a CRI above 70, supporting accurate visual inspection and process work.

Electrical performance includes a power factor above 0.95 and THD below 10%, with universal 100?277V input. Dimming is supported via 1-10V controls. At mounting heights below 8 feet, output may be excessive for some confined spaces. Uniformity can decrease at mounting heights above 16 feet without supplemental fixtures or careful layout.

Adjustability and Control Options

This fixture supports 1-10V dimming for integration with lighting controls or manual dimming systems. Dimming allows for light level adjustment to match process requirements or energy management protocols. No onboard occupancy or daylight sensors are included; external controls must be specified if needed.

Beam distribution is fixed at 120°, with no field-changeable optics. The fixture can be mounted using chain-cable, recessed, or surface methods, providing flexibility for different ceiling types and installation constraints.

Longevity and Reliability

Rated for 50,000 hours (L70), this fixture is designed for long-term operation in hazardous and corrosive environments. The polycarbonate lens and sealed housing protect internal components from dust, moisture, and impact.

Operating temperature range is -22°F to 122°F, supporting year-round use in both conditioned and unconditioned spaces. The fixture is IP66 and IK09 rated, providing resistance to water ingress and mechanical impact.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The fixture measures 25.2 x 23.8 x 3.7 inches and weighs 46.3 lbs. The housing is engineered for durability in hazardous locations, with a sealed design to prevent the ingress of flammable gases, dusts, and liquids.

Construction includes a polycarbonate lens and corrosion-resistant materials. The low-profile form factor allows installation in areas with limited overhead clearance or where space is restricted by process equipment.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is intended for classified hazardous locations where explosion proof or vapor-tight lighting is required. It is suitable for environments with flammable gases, vapors, combustible dusts, or fibers, and where NSF or IP66 ratings are necessary for washdown or cleanability.

• hazardous location lighting
• explosion proof lighting
• paint booth lighting
• chemical processing facility lighting
• oil and gas facility lighting
• refinery lighting
• wastewater treatment lighting
• solvent storage area lighting

Environments include paint booths, chemical plants, solvent storage rooms, refineries, and wastewater treatment areas. The fixture is also suitable for marine or offshore applications where hazardous ratings and corrosion resistance are required.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Chain-cable, recessed, and surface mounting options are supported. The fixture?s weight and size require secure mounting to structural elements. All wiring and conduit entries must maintain hazardous location integrity per code.

Routine cleaning is supported by the IP66 and NSF ratings. Maintenance is limited to periodic inspection and cleaning; no relamping is required. The fixture is designed for minimal service intervention over its rated life.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 8 to 16 feet, depending on the space and required light levels. Fixtures are often spaced to provide uniform coverage in process areas, paint booths, or storage rooms, with layout determined by hazard classification and task requirements.

In lower ceiling areas, closer spacing may be required to avoid shadowing. Higher output can reduce fixture count but may increase glare in confined spaces. Layouts should consider both hazard zoning and visual comfort.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL 844 listed for hazardous locations and certified for Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; Class II, Division 1, Groups F, G; and Class III. It is IP66, IK09, and NSF rated. The product is covered by a 5-year warranty.

All certifications are maintained for the full fixture assembly. Installation must comply with all applicable codes for hazardous locations.
