Die-cast aluminum housing paired with a TEFLON-coated lens delivers rugged durability and improved light transmission in harsh environments. The result is fewer field replacements and lower maintenance costs in plants with frequent washdowns, offshore platforms, and mining sites. High luminous performance and energy efficiency—5000 lumens at 45W with a 127 lm/W rating and a dimmable driver—translate to lower energy bills and reduced electrical loading on distribution systems while maintaining safe illuminance on production lines. Electrical compatibility and resilience—supporting 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc with 50/60 Hz operation—simplify retrofits, accelerate project timelines, and minimize wiring changes. Type V optical distribution ensures uniform coverage, while IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings protect against dust, water ingress, and corrosion, aiding regulatory compliance for classified locations. Certification readiness—NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX coverage and hazardous-location ratings for Class I Division 2, Zone 21—facilitates global deployments and reduces design risk. CAD and SP3D assets streamline design workflows and procurement accuracy.
