Notes
Product Overview
This 50 Watt Round Explosion Proof LED Light is engineered for hazardous location lighting, providing a robust solution for environments where safety is paramount. Delivering 7000 lumens at a color temperature of 5000K, this fixture is suitable for use in oil and gas facilities, chemical processing plants, and other high-risk areas. Designed to replace traditional 250 Watt metal halide fixtures, it operates efficiently within a voltage range of 100-277V.
With certifications including UL 844, Class I/II/III, ATEX, and IECEx, this fixture is built to withstand challenging conditions. Its IP66 and IK10 ratings ensure protection against dust, water, and impact, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor hazardous environments. The fixture's yoke or 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting options provide flexibility in installation.
Core Performance and Output
This explosion proof LED light offers an output of 7000 lumens with an efficiency of 140 lumens per watt. The fixture's 120° beam angle ensures broad and even light distribution, suitable for large areas requiring consistent illumination. Electrical performance is optimized with a power factor greater than 0.90 and a total harmonic distortion of less than 10%.
While the fixture is designed for high-risk environments, excessive output may not be suitable for low mounting heights, potentially leading to glare. It is recommended to consider the mounting height and space requirements to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Adjustability and Control Options
The fixture supports 1-10V dimming, allowing for adjustable light levels to suit specific application needs. This feature is particularly useful in environments where varying light intensities are required for different tasks or safety protocols. The dimming capability also contributes to energy savings and extended fixture life.
Mounting options include yoke and 3/4 inch NPT pendant, with additional surface or wall mounting available. These options provide flexibility in installation, accommodating various structural and spatial constraints.
