FAQs
The VMVL-3-2C-R3-UNV1 is designed for ceiling mounting with a 3/4" trade size and does not require a guard. Its robust die-cast aluminum housing and glass lens are optimized for harsh environments, while the Type III optical distribution targets broad, even illumination. When installing in hazardous areas, ensure proper enclosure and wiring methods per NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX guidelines, and verify voltage compatibility (100-277 Vac, 127-250 Vdc) for a safe, compliant retrofit or new installation.
This fixture operates at 28W with a power factor >0.90 and provides a dimmable driver for flexible control. It supports a wide voltage range of 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc at 50/60 Hz, aligning with most industrial power distributions. The combination enables energy savings, better light quality, and smoother integration with lighting controls in hazardous locations.
Yes. The VMVL-3-2C-R3-UNV1 is designed for hazardous/classified locations and carries NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX certifications, including Zone 21 for IECEx/ATEX. It also features IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4X rating, providing robust environmental protection in Zone 2/Division 2 areas and similar hazardous settings, helping you stay compliant with regulatory requirements.
The luminaire employs a die-cast aluminum housing and heat- and impact-resistant glass, delivering strong mechanical protection and weather resistance. With 3000 lumens and a long LED life, it reduces replacement intervals and maintenance costs in harsh environments.
