34 / 38 / 45 Wattage Adjustable LED Vapor Tight Light | 4900 to 6500 Lumens | 4000K / 5000K Adjustable | 100-277V | 4 Foot

Product Overview

This is a 4-foot LED vapor tight fixture with selectable wattage and color temperature. It is designed for wet, damp, and harsh environments where protection from water, dust, and debris is required. Typical use includes replacing 175W metal halide fixtures in locations where durability and ingress protection are critical.

The fixture supports both surface and V-hook mounting. It is commonly installed in washdown areas, cold storage, and car wash bays where exposure to moisture and cleaning chemicals is routine. The polycarbonate housing and lens provide impact resistance and long-term reliability in demanding conditions.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture offers three selectable wattage settings: 34W, 38W, and 45W, delivering 4900 to 6500 lumens. The efficacy is 145 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, uniform coverage suitable for open areas and linear spaces.

Color temperature can be set to either 4000K or 5000K, supporting both neutral and daylight-white requirements. 0-10V dimming is standard for integration with lighting controls. Output may be excessive for low-ceiling utility rooms or stairwells; optimal mounting heights are typically 8 to 14 feet.

Adjustability and Control Options

Both wattage and color temperature are field adjustable via onboard switches. This allows tuning of light levels and color to match specific site needs or to standardize across multiple locations. The fixture supports 0-10V dimming for occupancy or daylight harvesting control strategies.

No onboard motion or daylight sensors are included. External controls can be integrated as needed. Adjustability is accessible without removing the fixture from its mounting location.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is rated for 100,000 hours (L70) and uses high-quality LEDs with a CRI of 80+. The polycarbonate housing and lens resist impact and chemical exposure common in washdown and car wash environments.

IP65 ingress protection prevents water and dust intrusion. The fixture is UL listed and suitable for continuous operation in wet locations. Long-term reliability is supported by a 5-year warranty.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing and lens are both polycarbonate, providing durability and resistance to corrosion and impact. The fixture measures 47.5 inches long, 10.5 inches wide, and 4.5 inches high, with a weight of 16.5 lbs. All hardware is designed for wet location use.

Fixture color is white. The lens is clear polycarbonate for maximum light transmission. Mounting options include surface brackets and V-hooks for suspension from ceiling or structure.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is designed for wet, damp, and corrosive environments where protection from water and debris is required. It is commonly installed in locations that require frequent washdown or exposure to cleaning chemicals, as well as areas with high humidity or condensation.

• washdown area lighting
• cold storage lighting
• parking garage lighting
• utility room lighting
• car wash lighting
• food processing lighting
• stairwell lighting
• outdoor covered walkway lighting

IP65 rating and polycarbonate construction make this fixture suitable for continuous wet location use, including environments with direct water spray or high humidity. Not intended for hazardous locations or areas requiring explosion proof certification.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Surface and V-hook mounting options are included for flexibility in installation. The fixture can be mounted directly to ceilings, walls, or suspended from structure. All wiring is accessible via gasketed end caps to maintain ingress protection.

Routine cleaning and maintenance are supported by the impact-resistant lens and sealed housing. Field adjustability of wattage and color temperature allows adaptation to changing requirements without fixture replacement. No special tools are required for adjustment or relamping.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 8 to 14 feet, depending on the application and required light levels. Fixtures are often spaced 8 to 12 feet apart in linear runs for uniform coverage in washdown bays, cold storage aisles, or parking garage rows.

In car wash and food processing environments, fixtures are installed to avoid direct impact from high-pressure spray. Higher output settings reduce fixture count but may increase glare in confined spaces. Spacing and output should be coordinated with task requirements and ceiling height.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed and IP65 rated for wet locations. It meets all requirements for use in commercial and industrial environments where ingress protection is required. Power factor is greater than 0.90, and the fixture is eligible for utility rebates where available.

A 5-year warranty covers all components. No hazardous location or explosion proof certifications are included. All materials are suitable for use in food processing and washdown environments where NSF listing is not required.
