FAQs
Installers should use the cone pendant mounting and 1" trade size as specified, ensuring proper clearance for venting and accessibility for maintenance. Use the die-cast aluminum housing with the wire guard in outdoor or harsh environments, and follow NEC/CEC/IECEx/ATEX guidelines for Zone 21 and Class I Division 2 sites. Confirm power availability within 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc and verify dimming control compatibility if a driver dimming option is employed.
The unit delivers 5000 lumens at 127 lm/W from a 45W driver, with voltage support of 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc. It runs on 50/60 Hz and features a dimmable driver with a power factor greater than 0.90, making it suitable for broad industrial power networks and enabling efficient integration with lighting controls.
Yes. The fixture is certified for hazardous/classified locations, including IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 and NEC/CEC-compliant classifications such as Class I Division 2 and Zone 21, along with NEMA 4X and IP66 ratings to withstand harsh industrial conditions. This makes it a reliable choice for chemical plants, refineries, and similar facilities.
It carries NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX certifications with Zone 21 hazardous ratings, IP66 ingress protection, and a NEMA 4X enclosure rating. These certifications ensure compliance for hazardous-location installations, outdoor exposure, and corrosive environments, reducing regulatory risk for project approvals.
LED technology provides longer life and lower maintenance compared with HID systems, while a dimmable driver enables optimization of energy use and lighting levels. The 5000-lumen output at 45W delivers substantial energy savings, translating to reduced operating costs and faster return on investment for facilities with demanding hazardous-location lighting needs.
