Product Overview
This 80 Watt Round Explosion Proof LED Light is engineered for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. It delivers 11,200 lumens at 5000K, providing a direct replacement for 250W metal halide fixtures in classified environments. The fixture is suitable for Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III locations, with approvals for marine and wet locations.
Designed for use in paint booths, chemical processing, and other hazardous areas, this fixture supports mounting heights typically ranging from 12 to 20 feet. The compact round form factor and robust construction allow for installation in confined or exposed industrial spaces where safety and compliance are critical.
Core Performance and Output
This fixture outputs 11,200 lumens at 140 lumens per watt, providing efficient illumination for hazardous environments. The standard 120° beam angle offers broad coverage, with optional 40°, 60°, and 90° optics available for more controlled distribution. Color temperature is 5000K with a CRI above 70, supporting clear visibility in work areas.
Electrical performance includes universal 100-277V or 277-480V input, 1-10V dimming, power factor above 0.95, and THD below 10%. Excessive output may occur at mounting heights below 12 feet, and uniformity may decrease at heights above 20 feet without proper optic selection.
Adjustability and Control Options
The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for output adjustment and integration with lighting controls. Multiple beam angle options allow for tailored light distribution based on task or area requirements. Yoke and 3/4 inch NPT pendant mounting options provide flexibility for ceiling, wall, or pendant installations.
No onboard occupancy or daylight sensors are included. Control integration is limited to external dimming systems compatible with 1-10V protocols.
Longevity and Reliability
L70 rated life is 50,000 hours, supporting long-term operation in demanding environments. The fixture is constructed with copper-free aluminum housing and a tempered glass lens for resistance to corrosion and impact.
10kV surge protection is standard. The fixture operates reliably in ambient temperatures from -40°F to 140°F. Maintenance intervals are minimized due to the sealed design and robust LED driver.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The housing is copper-free aluminum with a gray finish, rated IP66 for dust and water ingress and IK10 for impact resistance. The fixture measures 10.63 x 10.47 inches and weighs 9.7 lbs, supporting installation in confined or overhead locations.
UL 1598A Marine and ABS certifications support use in marine and offshore environments. The tempered glass lens and sealed construction prevent ingress of dust, water, and contaminants.
