60 Watt Explosion Proof Linear LED Light | 7800 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V

Product Overview

The 60 Watt Explosion Proof Linear LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts may be present under abnormal conditions. This fixture is UL844 listed for Class I Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D, and is suitable for wet locations (UL 1598). Typical installations include paint booths, chemical processing areas, and solvent storage zones where safety and compliance are critical. The linear form factor supports bracket, surface, or wall mounting, making it adaptable to a range of hazardous environments.

This fixture delivers 7800 lumens at 5000K, providing a clear, daylight-white output. It is commonly used as a 250W metal halide replacement in hazardous and industrial settings, supporting mounting heights up to approximately 15?20 feet depending on layout and required light levels.

Core Performance and Output

This 60W linear explosion proof LED fixture produces 7800 lumens at 130 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, even coverage for task and general area lighting in hazardous locations. The fixture operates on 100?277V input and maintains a power factor above 0.95 with total harmonic distortion below 10%.

Output is suitable for mid-bay mounting heights and can replace legacy 250W metal halide fixtures in similar layouts. Excessive output may occur if installed below 10 feet, and uniformity may decrease at mounting heights above 20 feet without careful spacing or supplemental fixtures.

Adjustability and Control Options

This fixture is non-dimmable and does not include integrated controls. The 120° beam angle is fixed. Mounting options include bracket, surface, or wall installation, allowing for directional aiming during installation but not after the fixture is secured.

No onboard occupancy or daylight sensors are included. External control systems must be specified separately if required for the application.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is rated for 50,000 hours (L70) and is built for continuous operation in hazardous and wet environments. The die-cast aluminum housing and IP66 rating protect against dust, water ingress, and corrosion.

Surge protection is rated at 4kV. The fixture is designed for minimal maintenance, with no lamps or ballasts to replace during its service life. Operating temperature range is -22°F to 122°F.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from die-cast aluminum with a powder-coated finish for durability in corrosive and hazardous environments. The fixture measures 48.4 x 4.9 x 3.5 inches and weighs 17 lbs, supporting secure mounting in vibration-prone or industrial settings.

All wiring and seals are designed to maintain hazardous location compliance. The IP66 rating ensures suitability for washdown and wet location use. Mounting hardware is included for bracket, surface, or wall installation.

Where This Product Fits Best

This explosion proof linear LED is intended for hazardous locations where flammable gases or vapors may be present, and where wet or corrosive conditions are expected. It is commonly used in environments requiring Class I Division 2 compliance and robust protection against dust and water.

• hazardous location lighting
• explosion proof lighting

• chemical processing facility lighting
• oil and gas facility lighting
• refinery lighting
• marine environment lighting
• solvent storage area lighting

Environmental characteristics include resistance to water, dust, and corrosive agents, as well as compliance with UL844 and UL 1598 for hazardous and wet locations. The fixture is suitable for both indoor and outdoor hazardous environments.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Mounting options include bracket, surface, or wall installation. The fixture is designed for secure attachment to structural surfaces in hazardous locations. All wiring must comply with hazardous location requirements and be installed by qualified personnel.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic inspection of seals and hardware. No lamp or ballast changes are required. The fixture?s weight and length should be considered when planning installation, especially in overhead or wall-mounted applications.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 10 to 20 feet, depending on the required light levels and spacing. Fixtures are often spaced to provide uniform coverage in paint booths, process areas, or hazardous storage rooms. Linear form factor supports continuous row or perimeter mounting along walls or ceilings.

Spacing and layout are determined by the size of the area and the desired light levels. Higher output can reduce fixture count but may increase glare if not properly aimed or shielded.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL844 listed for hazardous locations, Class I Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D. It is also UL 1598 listed for wet locations and carries an IP66 ingress protection rating. Surge protection is rated at 4kV.

The product includes a 5-year warranty. All certifications are maintained as part of the fixture?s construction and labeling. Rebate eligibility is available where applicable.
