Eaton Crouse-Hinds VMVL-3-3B-UNV1 LED light fixture - IP66

High-efficiency LED performance: 3000 lumens at 123 lm/W with a 28W drive, delivering an HID-equivalent light output while slashing energy use. This reduces operating costs, lowers heat load, and extends fixture life in demanding plants. The design supports straightforward retrofits for medium to high bay areas where consistent brightness is essential, and it pairs with a dimmable driver for light-level control in process zones. Its 50/60 Hz compatibility and wide voltage range simplify integration with global electrical distributions, enabling a single SKU to serve multiple sites.Rugged construction for harsh environments: die-cast aluminum housing paired with heat- and impact-resistant glass lens yields excellent durability and washdown resistance. IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings protect against water, dust, and chemical exposure, ensuring compliance with facility standards and reducing maintenance calls. Applications include chemical processing areas, oil and gas facilities, outdoor substations, and other demanding spaces where reliability is non-negotiable.Hazardous-area readiness: IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 certification, NEC/CEC compliance for hazardous locations, including Class I Division 2. The IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure delivers a robust barrier against moisture, dust, and corrosive contaminants, supporting safe operation in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore platforms. This combination minimizes compliance risk while enabling seamless expansion across plants and projects.Compat and installation flexibility: cone pendant mounting with 1" trade size and Type V distribution enables compact fit in overhead fixtures and long runs, while the glass lens provides clear, undistorted illumination. Dimmable drivers and a wide voltage window support integration with building management and energy-control systems, reducing installation time and enabling phased lighting upgrades across facilities.Lifecycle and ROI considerations: the 28W LED delivers 3000 lumens, replacing higher-wattage HID solutions and delivering rapid payback through energy savings and reduced maintenance. The durable construction lowers replacement cycles in washdown-heavy environments, while regulatory compliance support ensures fewer audits and interruptions. This combination is particularly advantageous for multi-site operations seeking consistency and lower total cost of ownership.
