Explosion Proof Slipfitter Adapter | Class 1 Div 2 | Class 2 Div 2 | 2 3/8 Inch Tenon

Product Overview

This explosion proof slipfitter adapter is designed for mounting explosion proof light fixtures to round poles with a 2 3/8 inch tenon. It is compatible with Class 1 Division 2 and Class 2 Division 2 rated fixtures.

The adapter is intended for use with our EXPLA, EXPLB, EXPLSTA1, and EXPLSTA2 explosion proof fixture lines. It provides a secure connection between the fixture and the pole in hazardous locations.

The construction supports environments where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts may be present, as defined by the Class 1 Div 2 and Class 2 Div 2 ratings.

This adapter is suitable for both new installations and retrofits where explosion proof mounting is required on round pole structures.

Where This Product Fits Best

This slipfitter adapter is used in hazardous locations requiring Class 1 Division 2 or Class 2 Division 2 compliance. Typical applications include petrochemical plants, refineries, grain processing facilities, and other industrial sites with classified areas.

It is intended for use where explosion proof fixtures need to be mounted to round poles with a 2 3/8 inch tenon. The adapter is not intended for use with square poles or non-classified environments.

Facilities with existing round pole infrastructure can use this adapter to upgrade or replace lighting with explosion proof fixtures without modifying the pole.

It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor hazardous area installations, provided the pole and fixture meet the required classification.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The adapter is engineered to maintain the integrity of the explosion proof fixture?s rating when installed as specified. It supports the mechanical load of the compatible fixtures and ensures a stable mounting interface.

Compatibility is limited to round poles with a 2 3/8 inch tenon. The adapter is not designed for other tenon sizes or mounting types.

When installed with the listed EXPLA, EXPLB, EXPLSTA1, or EXPLSTA2 fixtures, the adapter maintains the hazardous location rating of the overall assembly.

There are no integrated electrical components or controls in the adapter. It serves as a mechanical mounting solution only.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires securing the adapter to a round pole with a 2 3/8 inch tenon and attaching the compatible explosion proof fixture. All mounting hardware and procedures should follow hazardous location requirements.

The adapter is designed for long-term use in environments where exposure to corrosive elements, vibration, and temperature fluctuations are common. Routine inspection of mounting hardware is recommended as part of standard maintenance.

Once installed, the adapter does not require adjustment or regular servicing beyond periodic checks for mechanical integrity.

Replacement or removal follows the same procedures as initial installation, with attention to hazardous area safety protocols.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

After installation, the slipfitter adapter provides a fixed, stable mounting point for explosion proof fixtures on round poles. You can rely on the adapter to keep the fixture securely attached in classified environments.

There are no adjustments or moving parts on the adapter. Once the fixture is mounted, day-to-day operation does not require interaction with the adapter itself.

Maintenance teams typically inspect the adapter during routine fixture checks to confirm that all hardware remains tight and free of corrosion.

The adapter?s compatibility with specific fixture lines means you can standardize mounting across multiple hazardous area locations using the same pole and tenon size.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This adapter is suitable for use with Class 1 Division 2 and Class 2 Division 2 explosion proof fixtures.

It is designed to maintain the hazardous location rating of the compatible fixture when installed according to instructions.

Warranty coverage is provided by LED Lighting Supply. Terms and duration are available upon request.

There are no additional electrical or environmental certifications beyond the hazardous location compatibility stated.
