High-lumen, energy-efficient output: 3000 lumens at 28 watts with 123 lm/W enables a 70W HID replacement while lowering energy consumption and maintenance intervals in hazardous locations, improving facility uptime. The business impact is immediate cost savings and reduced Cool-White lighting fatigue for workers in dim or harsh environments, making it ideal for continuous operations in processing plants and refineries. Application: retrofit and new-build hazardous-area lighting projects where long life and consistent illumination matter, such as chemical processing and oil/gas facilities.Rugged enclosure with IP66 and NEMA 4X protection: The die-cast aluminum housing, glass lens, and wire guard resist dust, water ingress, and corrosion. Benefit: extended service life in harsh environments, lower replacement and downtime, and dependable performance in outdoor or damp locations. Application: outdoor platforms, chemical processing yards, and dusty workshops where ingress resistance is critical.Universal voltage with dimmable capability: 100-277 VAC and 127-250 VDC input with a dimmable driver supports flexible power routing and smoother transitions during power events. Benefit: simplified electrical design, fewer transformers, and energy optimization through dimming. Application: mixed-voltage facilities, plant-wide retrofits, and spaces requiring adjustable illumination levels during maintenance.Type V optical distribution for efficient coverage: The dedicated Type V distribution ensures consistent light across long, narrow aisles and workbenches. Benefit: improved task lighting and reduced glare, contributing to higher productivity and safety. Application: corridors, instrument bays, and equipment corridors in hazardous environments.LED-based performance with rugged materials: Cool white light, 3000 lm, PF > 0.90, and a 28W driver with glass lens and guard provide reliable illumination with high efficiency and low heat output. Benefit: lower energy costs, reduced thermal stress on sensitive equipment, and safer working conditions. Application: control rooms, engineering labs, and maintenance areas within hazardous zones.Documentation and compatibility support: Includes SP3D design packages and datasheets for quick integration, plus installation instructions for VMVL fixtures. Benefit: faster project approvals, fewer field errors, and smoother commissioning. Application: engineering design reviews and procurement workflows in industrial settings.
