Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VMVL uses a die-cast aluminum housing and a diffused glass lens for superior corrosion resistance and impact protection, reducing maintenance cycles in harsh environments and extending service life in chemical plants and refineries. This translates to lower total cost of ownership and predictable lighting performance for process areas with frequent washdowns and exposure to chemicals. Feature → Business Impact → Application: With 3000 lumens and a high efficacy of 123 lm/W, the fixture delivers bright, uniform illumination while keeping power consumption low, supporting energy reduction programs and improving operator visibility in hazardous zones such as production floors and loading docks. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The LED driver is dimmable and operates across 100-277 Vac / 127-250 Vdc, enabling seamless integration with existing controls and variable-speed drives, which reduces utility spikes and enables smoother lighting schedules across shifts in oil and gas facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Type III optical distribution provides targeted illumination for perimeter and exterior areas, enhancing security and safety around hazardous locations, loading bays, and outdoor systems in mining or wastewater treatment plants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The unit is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations (Class I, Division 2; Zone 2; Class II, Division 1; Class III) and Zone 21 under IECEx/ATEX, offering compliance with global safety standards and enabling cross-site deployments with minimal redesign costs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: With IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings, the luminaire resists dust, water jets, and corrosion, making it resilient in humid or dusty environments and reducing failures in outdoor or washdown areas, such as chemical processing or marine facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Its 3/4" trade size and wall-mount configuration streamline retrofits or new installations, lowering installation time and enabling easier alignment with existing mounting provisions in industrial plants and hazardous-area rooms.

FAQs

For hazardous-area installations, ensure mounting on a compatible wall surface using standard 3/4 inch trade fittings and observe the Class I, Division 2 and Zone 21 guidelines. Verify supply voltage (100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc) and ensure the dimmable driver is configured for the control system. Maintain clear ingress protection (IP66) and NEMA 4X housing to protect against dust, water jets, and corrosion in harsh environments.
The VMVL accepts 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc with a 50/60 Hz frequency rating and a dimmable driver. It delivers 3000 lumens at 123 lm/W and a power draw of 28 W. Its wide voltage range facilitates integration with existing controllers and power systems across sites, reducing the need for multiple variants and simplifying spare-part inventories.
Yes. VMVL is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations, including NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX compliance, Zone 21 and Class I, Division 2, with Class II, Division 1 and Class III ratings. The IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X enclosure further support safe operation in explosive, dusty, and wet environments and align with global safety standards for industrial facilities.
The die-cast aluminum housing and diffused glass lens resist corrosion and impact, reducing downtime for cleaning and repairs. The LED technology extends service life, lowers energy usage (high efficacy), and minimizes lamp replacements. A rugged design suited for hazardous locations also reduces warranty and service calls, delivering predictable maintenance budgets and improved ROI over traditional HID luminaires.
The VMVL is designed for wall mounting with a 3/4" trade size and supports dimmable drivers for flexible lighting control. It offers Type III optical distribution for perimeter lighting and compatibility with 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc power systems. This makes retrofits easier in plants with existing control schemes and supports scalable lighting strategies across shift patterns.
