40 Watt Explosion Proof Low Profile LED Fixture - 5,400 Lumens - Class 1 & 2 Div 1 & 2

40 Watt Explosion Proof Low Profile LED Fixture - 5,400 Lumens - Class 1 & 2 Div 1 & 2 https://www.larsonelectronics.com/product/64339/40-watt-explosion-proof-low-profile-led-fixture-5-400-lumens-class-1-2-div-1-2?productIdBase64=NjQzMzk1&rank=9 The Larson Electronics EPL-LP-24-LED Low Profile Explosion Proof light fixture provides operators with a powerful and energy efficient alternative to traditional hazardous location luminaries. LED technology and compact design makes this lamp an excellent replacement upgrade option for bulky and high maintenance cost older fixtures. This Class I Divisions 1 & 2, Class II Divisions 1 & 2 low profile explosion proof light fixture provides 5,400 lumens of high quality light while only drawing 40 watts. The copper free aluminum alloy body is powder coated for added durability and an attractive aesthetic appearance. The EPL-LP-24-LED from Larson Electronics is an integrated low profile linear explosion proof LED light fixture with a unique design. Instead of using diffused glass, optics, or reflectors to distribute the light, Larson Electronics has positioned the boards within the fixture to provide a wide area light without sacrificing quality or light output. Measuring only 5" in width, this fixture takes up half the surface area as a standard two foot 2-lamp explosion proof fixture. The surface mount fixture`s overall height with adjustable surface mount bracket is under 4.5", including the surface mount bracket itself, making the EPL-LP-24-LED one of the lowest profile explosion proof light fixtures on the market. LED Benefits: Unlike gas burning and arc type lamps that have glass bulbs, LEDs have no filaments or fragile housings to break during operation and/or transportation. Instead of heating a small filament or using a combination of gases to produce light, light emitting diodes (LEDs) use semi-conductive materials that illuminate when electric current is applied, providing instant illumination with no warm up or cool down time before re-striking. LED lights run at significantly cooler temperatures than traditional metal halide and high pressure sodium lights and contain no harmful gases, vapors, or mercury, making them both safer and more energy efficient. No extra energy is wasted in cooling enclosed work areas due to external heat emissions from bulb type lights, and the operator risks associated with traditional lighting methods, such as accidental burns and exposure to hazardous substances contained in the glass bulbs, are eliminated. Wiring: These LED light fixtures are equipped with terminal strips. Electricians bring customer supplied wire to the terminal strips on the fixture for power connection. The wiring of these terminal strip equipped units must be conducted via wiring methods laid out in NFPA 70 / NEC Code Book Article 500. This unit is a factory sealed fixture. Adjustable Surface Mount Brackets: Each L-shape bracket is machined with three holes per bracket to attach to the light fixture. The angle of the bracket is set by aligning the machined set screw holes on the mounting bracket with with index holes attached to the fixture. The bracket itself is mounted via two bolt hole at the top the bracket. Suspension Mounting: Pendant mount fixtures hang from the conduit and are suspended by rigid pipe. Each fixture features a 3/4" NPT junction box on one end, and a eyelet other end of the fixture. Operators bring rigid pipe down to the threaded mounting hub. Customer provided wiring is fed down through the rigid pipe to the junction box and tied in to the fixture`s terminal strips, completing the electrical connection. Chain Hang Mounting: Chain hang mount fixtures hang from the chains or metal rope. Two eyelets, one at each end of the fixture, allow operators to attach safety hooks to the fixture during installation. Operators bring flex conduit down to the threaded mounting hub. Suggested Applications: Paint spray booths, aircraft maintenance, oil drilling rigs, refineries, solvent and cleaning areas, gas processing plants, chemical manufacturing, waste water treatment plants, gas processing plants, offshore applications, oil tankers, mud tanks, sand mines, mining, cold weather applications.
