Explosion Proof Stanchion | 25 Degree Mount | Class 1 Div 2

Product Overview

Explosion Proof Stanchion | 25 Degree Mount is a hazardous location LED fixture designed for use in environments where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts are present. This model features a 25° stanchion mounting bracket, supporting installations that require angled positioning on vertical or horizontal pipe structures. Typical deployments include chemical processing plants, paint booths, and facilities requiring Class I Div 2 and Class II Div 1 compliance. The fixture is available in 100W to 200W configurations, supporting a range of mounting heights and hazardous area layouts.

This fixture is engineered for compatibility with our EXPLA and EXPLB explosion proof product lines. It is suitable for both new construction and retrofit projects where hazardous location certification and robust mounting are required. The compact form factor allows for installation in areas with limited space or complex conduit routing.

Core Performance and Output

The fixture delivers 14,000 to 28,000 lumens at 5000K, supporting both general and task lighting in hazardous environments. Output levels are suitable for mounting heights from 12 to 30 feet, depending on the wattage selected and the required light levels. The 25° stanchion mount enables directional aiming, improving coverage in aisleways, process areas, or along walkways.

Electrical operation is 100-277V, supporting standard industrial power systems. The fixture maintains consistent output in ambient temperatures typical of chemical, paint, and processing environments. Excessive output may occur at low mounting heights; glare control or shielding may be required in close-quarters installations. Uniformity may decrease at mounting heights above 30 feet without supplemental fixtures.

Adjustability and Control Options

The 25° stanchion bracket provides fixed-angle mounting for directional lighting. This allows for targeted illumination of process lines, equipment, or hazardous zones. The fixture is compatible with standard hazardous location wiring methods and can be oriented to suit conduit entry requirements.

Dimming and advanced control options are not standard on this model. Integration with external hazardous location-rated controls is possible if required by the facility?s lighting management system. No field-adjustable beam or lens options are included.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is designed for continuous operation in hazardous locations, with a rated life exceeding 50,000 hours. Solid-state LED technology minimizes maintenance intervals compared to legacy HID or fluorescent systems. The sealed housing prevents ingress of dust, vapors, and moisture, supporting reliable operation in harsh environments.

Thermal management is integrated into the housing design, maintaining LED and driver temperatures within rated limits. The fixture is covered by a 5-year warranty, supporting long-term deployment in critical process areas.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from corrosion-resistant materials suitable for chemical, marine, and industrial environments. The compact dimensions (5.6 x 5.6 x 4.2 inches) allow for installation in tight spaces or on crowded pipe racks. All external hardware is rated for hazardous location use.

The 25° stanchion bracket is engineered for secure mounting to standard pipe or conduit. The fixture is fully sealed and rated for use in wet and dusty environments, with all gaskets and seals meeting hazardous location requirements. No external glass or fragile components are exposed.

• wastewater treatment lighting

The fixture is suitable for both indoor and outdoor hazardous areas. It is designed to withstand exposure to chemicals, salt spray, and industrial contaminants.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation is performed using the integrated 25° stanchion bracket, which attaches to standard pipe or conduit. All wiring must comply with hazardous location codes and be performed by qualified personnel. The compact size allows for mounting in areas with limited clearance or complex conduit layouts.

Routine maintenance is minimal due to the sealed LED design. Periodic inspection of mounting hardware and gaskets is recommended to ensure continued hazardous location compliance. The fixture is compatible with both new and retrofit hazardous area projects.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 12 to 30 feet, depending on the wattage and required illumination levels. Fixtures are often spaced to provide overlapping coverage in process areas, walkways, or equipment zones. The 25° angle allows for targeted lighting along aisles or machinery lines.

Spacing and layout are determined by the specific hazardous area classification and the facility?s lighting plan. Higher output models reduce fixture count but may require additional glare control in confined spaces.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL844 listed for hazardous locations. It is certified for Class I Div 2 Groups E, F, G and Class II Div 1 Groups A, B, C, D. The housing and mounting system meet all requirements for explosion proof and hazardous location use.

The product includes a 5-year warranty. All components are rated for continuous operation in hazardous and corrosive environments. No field modifications are permitted that would affect certification.
