Product Lighting Layout Estimator
Use this estimator to calculate approximate fixture count, spacing, and average foot-candles for a simple rectangular space using the selected LED fixture. Enter your room dimensions, mounting height, target foot-candles, light loss factor, and room/layout condition to generate a preliminary lighting layout. When IES photometry is available, workplane height and room reflectance controls are shown.
Project Inputs
Estimated Results
Estimated average foot-candles are preliminary and should be verified with a lighting plan for project-critical applications.
Room / Layout Condition: This field is used only when usable IES photometry is not available. In fallback mode, it acts as a simplified room utilization factor for reflectance, fixture distribution, racking, obstructions, and how much fixture light reaches the work area. Open / light-colored spaces use 0.90, typical warehouses or shops use 0.75, racked or obstructed spaces use 0.60, and dark or complex spaces use 0.45. When IES photometry is active, this field is hidden and the estimator uses the selected workplane height, LLF, and simplified reflectance adjustment instead.
Photometry / Simulation Note: When usable IES photometry is available for the selected fixture, this estimator uses the fixture’s IES candela data, selected workplane height, light loss factor, and simplified reflectance adjustment to estimate fixture count, average foot-candles, and visual light distribution. The reflectance adjustment is a conservative approximation and is not a full zonal-cavity, radiosity, or professional photometric room calculation. When IES photometry is not available, the estimator uses a simulated beam model based on lumens, mounting height, room/layout condition, light loss factor, and beam angle.
Preliminary Estimate Only: This estimator is intended for simple square or rectangular spaces and should be used as a planning aid, not a final photometric lighting plan. Actual light levels may vary based on fixture optics, selected IES file, mounting conditions, workplane height, ceiling height, surface reflectance, obstructions, controls, voltage, installation conditions, and site-specific requirements. Project-critical applications should be verified with a formal lighting plan.
This estimate is a starting point. Warehouses, industrial facilities, hazardous locations, sports areas, schools, healthcare spaces, public areas, and code-sensitive projects may require a reviewed lighting layout before purchase or installation.
Product Overview
This 5-watt explosion proof LED exit light is designed for emergency exit lighting in classified and wet locations. It operates on 100-277V power and uses a 5000K LED source behind a tempered glass lens.
The fixture is built for hazardous location lighting and marine environment lighting where exit marking equipment must withstand demanding conditions. Chain-cable and 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting support suspended installations.
Core Performance and Output
The fixture uses 5 watts, operates at 100-277V, and supports 50-60Hz electrical systems. Power factor is greater than 0.95 and total harmonic distortion is less than 10%.
This is an exit lighting fixture rather than a general-area light source. Output and placement must support visible exit marking without placing the fixture where its light is blocked by structural equipment or suspended materials.
Adjustability and Control Options
This fixture is non-dimming. It is intended for constant operation as emergency exit lighting.
Chain-cable mounting and 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting are available. The mounting method should match the installed support structure and required fixture location.
Longevity and Reliability
The LED system is rated for 50,000 L70 hours. The fixture includes 10kV surge protection.
The operating temperature range is -40 degrees F to 140 degrees F. This range supports installations exposed to low and high ambient temperatures within the stated limits.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The housing is aluminum alloy with a tempered glass lens. The fixture measures 16 by 11.7 inches and weighs 14 pounds.
IP66 and IK10 ratings support use in wet and impact-prone environments. The housing, lens, mounting method, and support structure should be evaluated together before installation.
Where This Product Fits Best
This exit light fits classified, wet, and marine operating conditions covered by its hazardous location and marine certifications. It is intended for emergency exit lighting within these application types.
- hazardous location lighting
- explosion proof lighting
- chemical processing facility lighting
- paint booth lighting
- marine environment lighting
- oil and gas facility lighting
Its IP66 enclosure, IK10 impact rating, aluminum alloy housing, and tempered glass lens address exposure to water, impact, and demanding site conditions. Classification requirements must match the listed UL hazardous location ratings.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Install the fixture using the chain-cable or 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting option. The mounting support must carry the 14-pound fixture and maintain the intended exit-light location.
Mounting height must preserve clear visibility of the exit light. Long-term maintenance should include inspection of the glass lens, housing, mounting connection, and electrical supply.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In hazardous location lighting, explosion proof lighting, and chemical processing facility lighting, the fixture is suspended where exit marking is required and where the mounting arrangement remains accessible for inspection. Mounting height is determined by the facility layout and the required exit-light position.
Chain-cable mounting can accommodate suspended placement, while 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting provides a rigid connection point. Fixture placement varies with the exit path layout and must keep the lens visible from the intended direction of travel.
