High lumen output and efficiency drive lower operating costs while maintaining broad coverage in industrial spaces. The VMVL-21-UNV1-M2 delivers 21000 lumens at 125 lm/W with a 174W draw, meaning reduced energy consumption compared with traditional HID equivalents while preserving immediate full illumination. In practice, this translates to fewer bulbs to change, less downtime, and more consistent task lighting for operators on the line or in hazardous zones. The rugged die-cast aluminum housing and heat- and impact-resistant glass lens support long service life in challenging environments, reducing maintenance cycles and replacement costs. Compatibility with 120-277 Vac or 108-250 Vdc, plus a dimmable driver, enables seamless integration with existing controls and emergency systems, improving energy management and workforce safety. Type V optical distribution ensures precise light placement for broad area coverage in large facilities, while the IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings provide dependable protection against dust, water, and harsh washdown conditions. These features collectively help facilities meet industry standards for hazardous location lighting, support regulatory compliance, and align with lifecycle cost reduction strategies. The absence of a mounting module simplifies retrofits and new installations alike, reducing installation time and labor costs. Real-world installations in chemical plants, offshore platforms, and mining operations benefit from known lighting performance, predictable maintenance schedules, and improved incident visibility during critical tasks.

FAQs
For hazardous-area installations, ensure the fixture is used in zones compatible with Zone 21/Division 2 classifications and mounted per the installation instructions. The unit features no mounting module, allowing straightforward retrofits or new installs on standard supports. Use appropriate fasteners and seals to maintain IP66 integrity, and verify power supply within 120-277 Vac or 108-250 Vdc to ensure dimmable operation without flicker.
Yes. VMVL-21-UNV1-M2 is designed with a universal voltage input, supporting 120-277 Vac and 108-250 Vdc. The dimmable driver enables flexible control from building management or local switches. This versatility reduces the need for multiple SKUs and simplifies procurement for mixed-fleet installations while maintaining PF > 0.90 for efficient power usage.
Absolutely. The VMVL-21-UNV1-M2 carries NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX certifications and is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations, including Zone 21 and Division 2. NEMA 4X and IP66 protection further ensure reliable operation in corrosive or washdown environments. This makes it appropriate for oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and similar industries where hazardous-location lighting is required.
The VMVL-21-UNV1-M2 delivers 21,000 lumens at 125 lm/W with a 174W drive, replacing 600W-750W HID equivalents. This results in substantial energy savings, reduced heat load, and significantly lower maintenance due to longer LED life. The dimmable driver supports adaptive lighting strategies, optimizing energy use during varying occupancy and process conditions without compromising visibility.
A range of resources is available, including 3D SP3D design packages, IES photometric files, installation instruction sheets, and the VMVL catalog pages.
