60 Watt Square Explosion Proof LED Light | 8400 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100V-277V

Product Overview

This 60 Watt Square Explosion Proof LED Light is designed for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. It delivers 8400 lumens at 5000K, providing a reliable alternative to 175W metal halide fixtures in classified environments. The fixture supports both yoke and 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting, with a compact form factor suitable for ceiling, wall, or pendant installations in confined or open hazardous spaces.

Typical use includes Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III environments. The fixture is built for continuous operation in paint booths, chemical processing areas, and other hazardous locations requiring certified explosion proof lighting. The tempered glass lens and copper-free aluminum housing withstand demanding industrial conditions.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 8400 lumens at 60 watts, achieving 140 lumens per watt. The standard 120° beam angle provides broad coverage, with optional 40°, 60°, or 90° optics for targeted distribution. Color temperature is 5000K with a CRI above 70. Power factor exceeds 0.95 and THD is below 10% for stable electrical performance on 100V-277V circuits.

Output is suitable for mounting heights from 10 to 20 feet in hazardous locations, replacing legacy 175W HID fixtures. At lower mounting heights, output may be excessive for small rooms or confined booths. Uniformity may decrease at mounting heights above 20 feet without tighter optics or increased fixture count.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for output adjustment and integration with lighting controls. Multiple beam angle options allow adaptation to different room geometries or task areas. Yoke and pendant mounting options provide flexibility for ceiling, wall, or structure attachment.

No field-aimable optics or adjustable heads are included. Dimming requires compatible control wiring and devices. Beam angle selection must be specified at installation; optics are not field-swappable.

Longevity and Reliability

L70 rated life is 50,000 hours. The fixture is designed for continuous operation in hazardous and corrosive environments. Copper-free aluminum housing and tempered glass lens resist impact, vibration, and chemical exposure.

10kV surge protection is integrated. The fixture operates reliably from -40°F to 122°F. No routine re-lamping is required, reducing maintenance in classified areas.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is cast from copper-free aluminum with a gray finish. The lens is tempered glass, rated IK10 for impact resistance. The fixture is IP66 rated for dust and water ingress and is suitable for wet locations and marine outside type environments.

Dimensions are 12.5 x 9.5 x 6.5 inches. Weight is 26 lbs. All hardware is corrosion resistant. Mounting options include yoke or 3/4 inch NPT pendant. The fixture is sealed and gasketed for hazardous and wet environments.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is intended for hazardous locations where explosion proof certification is required. It is suitable for environments with flammable gases, vapors, combustible dusts, or fibers. Typical installations include:

• hazardous location lighting
• explosion proof lighting
• paint booth lighting
• chemical processing facility lighting
• oil and gas facility lighting
• refinery lighting
• marine environment lighting
• wastewater treatment lighting

The fixture is designed for use in classified areas requiring UL 844, ATEX, and IECEx compliance. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor hazardous environments, including marine and offshore locations.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Mounting options include yoke for surface or wall installation and 3/4 inch NPT pendant for overhead mounting. The fixture is pre-wired for 100V-277V input. All connections must be made in accordance with hazardous location wiring methods and local code.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic inspection of seals and hardware. The sealed design and robust construction minimize ingress and corrosion. Weight and size require secure mounting to rigid structures. Dimming and control wiring should be planned during installation.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Common mounting heights range from 10 to 20 feet, depending on the area and required light levels. Fixtures are typically spaced to provide uniform coverage in paint booths, process rooms, or hazardous storage areas. Layouts may use tighter spacing or narrower optics for higher mounting heights or task-specific zones.

Reducing fixture count with higher output may increase glare in confined spaces. Spacing and beam angle selection should be coordinated with the hazard classification and room geometry.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844, UL 1598, UL 1598A, ABS, ATEX, and IECEx standards. It is rated for Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III hazardous locations. IP66 and IK10 ratings confirm suitability for wet and high-impact environments.

Operating temperature is -40°F to 122°F. The fixture includes 10kV surge protection and a 5-year warranty. All certifications are listed on the product label and documentation.
