Eaton Crouse-Hinds VMVL-3-W-UNV1 LED light fixture - IP66 Hazardous

High-efficiency LED output delivers 3000 lumens at 28W, replacing 70W HID with an impressive 123 lm/W efficiency. This directly reduces energy consumption and heat generation, lowering operating costs and improving overall plant cooling loads in hazardous environments. The business impact is clearer visibility paired with lower lifecycle costs, making it ideal for oil & gas facilities, chemical plants, and refineries where reliable lighting drives safety and productivity, especially in large open areas or walkways. The dimmable driver and broad voltage acceptance enable seamless integration with existing electrical systems, supporting 100-277 VAC and 127-250 VDC while enabling staged lighting controls. This reduces wiring changes and allows fine-tuned illumination for different shifts or process needs, delivering energy savings without compromising safety in hazardous zones. Applications include plant corridors, staging areas, and perimeter lighting where flexible control is critical. A rugged die-cast aluminum body with a heat and impact resistant glass lens delivers lasting performance in harsh environments. The robust construction minimizes maintenance frequency and replacement costs in corrosive or dusty facilities, translating to lower total cost of ownership for uptime-critical operations. This is particularly valuable in offshore platforms and chemical processing units where equipment exposure is high. Type V optical distribution ensures broad, uniform illumination across large areas, reducing hot spots and fatigue for workers. Coupled with a warm white LED output, it enhances color rendering and task visibility, improving safety audits and reducing error rates in critical operations such as quality inspection zones and control rooms. The IP66 ingress protection combined with NEMA 4X enclosure ratings provides reliable operation in washdown environments and dusty, corrosive atmospheres. This level of protection minimizes unplanned maintenance and mitigates corrosion-related failures, a common pain point in hazardous-location lighting projects. The VMVL-3-W-UNV1 is designed for easy installation with no mounting module required, simplifying retrofits and new installations while keeping project timelines on track. Overall, the luminaire’s compliance with NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards ensures regulatory alignment across multiple regions, supporting global procurement strategies and reducing risk in multi-site deployments.
