Rugged, IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure delivers superior protection against water, dust, and corrosive environments, reducing maintenance downtime and extending service life in harsh facilities. This translates to lower lifecycle costs and fewer unscheduled outages in chemical plants, refineries, and mining sites. High lumen output of 5000 lm with 127 lm/W efficiency enables HID replacement with a smaller footprint and cooler operation, cutting energy bills and improving plant thermal management. The wide voltage range of 100-277 VAC and 127-250 VDC, paired with a dimmable driver, simplifies site-to-site deployment and compatibility with existing controls, lowering installation time and inventory complexity. Type I optical distribution with a 1" trade size ensures predictable spacing and lighting uniformity, while the glass lens and die-cast aluminum body withstand impact and temperature swings common in industrial environments. These features collectively support compliance with hazardous-location standards and reduce ongoing maintenance costs while delivering reliable, efficient illumination.

FAQs
This luminaire is designed for wall mounting with a 1" trade size and Type I optical distribution. It carries hazardous-location certifications and electrical ratings suitable for Class I/II and Zone 21 environments. When installing, ensure proper enclosure sealing, compatible junction boxes, and adherence to NEC/CEC/IECEx/ATEX guidelines. Verify driver dimming compatibility and maintain clearance from heat sources to optimize lifespan and performance.
The VMVL-5-3TW-R1-UNV1 meets NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards with Zone 21 hazardous location ratings, Class I, Division 2, Class II and III designations, NEMA 4X sealing, IP66 ingress protection, and a rugged enclosure. These certifications validate suitability for explosive atmospheres, washdown environments, and harsh industrial conditions, reducing risk, simplifying procurement, and enabling compliant operation across global facilities.
Yes, the VMVL-5-3TW-R1-UNV1 offers a dimmable driver option. When selecting a dimming strategy, pair it with a compatible control system and ensure the driver voltage and dimming range match site requirements. Dimming enables energy savings during low-load periods and extends the life of the supply electronics by reducing peak demand, which is especially valuable in facilities with variable lighting needs.
Yes. The VMVL-5-3TW-R1-UNV1 is designed for Zone 21 locations and broader hazardous/classified locations. With Zone 21 certification, along with NEC/CEC compliance and IP66/NEMA 4X protection, it is appropriate for areas with potentially explosive atmospheres and harsh environmental conditions, including chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining operations.
Compared with HID solutions, the VMVL-5-3TW-R1-UNV1 delivers immediate energy savings (high lumens per watt) and cooler operation, reducing cooling loads. Its long LED life minimizes lamp replacements and maintenance visits, lowering labor costs and downtime. The robust housing and seals improve reliability in harsh environments, delivering predictable performance and faster payback in industrial facilities.
