High-lumen output and efficiency is a core capability: VMVL-17-R5N-G-UNV1-M2 delivers 17,000 lumens at 131 lm/W, reducing the number of fixtures required and lowering energy costs over the life of the facility. In manufacturing floor spaces, spill light is minimized and maintenance intervals extend due to the long LED life, ensuring consistent daylight-quality illumination for critical operations. Hazardous-location certification and protective enclosures provide regulatory peace of mind: NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX certifications, Zone 21 rating, IP66 ingress protection, and a NEMA 4X enclosure meet stringent environmental and safety standards. This enables quicker approvals, fewer on-site protective add-ons, and safer operation in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore rigs. Dimming and wide voltage range optimize integration: a dimmable driver supports 120-277 VAC and 108-250 VDC with a power factor of 0.9, enabling seamless control with existing PLCs and lighting strategies. The result is energy efficiency, reduced peak demand, and consistent light levels across process areas. Rugged construction for harsh environments: die-cast aluminum housing, heat- and impact-resistant glass, and narrow optical distribution withstand vibration, chemicals, and temperature cycles. This durability reduces replacement intervals and maintenance costs, especially in confined spaces like stairwells, platforms, and entryways. Installation flexibility and compatibility: no mounting module simplifies retrofits and new installs, while a built-in wire guard option protects the luminaire in exposed zones. Compact dimensions and a 22.73 lb weight strike a balance between field handling and rugged protection, easing design integration. Documentation-backed performance: comprehensive SP3D packages, photometric files, and installation sheets support engineering design, procurement, and commissioning, reducing project risk and accelerating owner-operator handover.

FAQs
For reliable installation in hazardous locations, verify compliance with NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards, ensure IP66/NEMA 4X enclosures are intact, and use the appropriate guard. The unit supports dimming and wide voltage input, so plan wiring to 120-277 VAC or 108-250 VDC circuits and coordinate with control systems for proper dimming and fault isolation.
Key specs include 17,000 lumens at 131 lm/W, 134 W power consumption, a 0.9 power factor, and voltage tolerance of 120-277 VAC or 108-250 VDC. Frequency is 50/60 Hz, and the fixture is dimmable. These characteristics support energy savings, robust light quality, and compatibility with common industrial controls.
Yes. VMVL-17-R5N-G-UNV1-M2 is certified for Zone 21 and Class I, Division 2 locations, along with Class II Division 1 and Class III in NEC contexts. It also meets IECEx/ATEX requirements, ensuring safe operation in hazardous areas such as chemical plants and offshore facilities.
The luminaire carries IECEx/ATEX certifications and Zone 21 ratings, with UL certification references in the downloadable literature. IP66 and NEMA 4X protection further support marine and offshore use by resisting water ingress and corrosion while maintaining electrical safety in exposed environments.
The LED design delivers long life with reduced replacement frequency, lowering maintenance downtime and spare-part costs. Energy efficiency from 131 lm/W plus dimming reduces operating expenses. Additionally, robust certification and protective features minimize downtime due to compliance or protective enclosures, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over the fixture’s lifespan.
