The VMVL-5-UNV1-S896 delivers 5000 lumens at 127 lm/W with cool white LED, delivering high-quality visibility while consuming only 45 W. This translates to lower energy costs, reduced heat load, and longer service life, especially in hazardous environments. In hazardous areas, dependable output supports safer operation on critical tasks and reduces re-lamp cycles in demanding schedules. IP66 and NEMA 4X housings shield the luminaire from dust, water, and corrosion in classified locations, reducing maintenance calls and extending uptime in chemical plants, offshore platforms, and mining sites. The fixture’s voltage flexibility—100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc input with a dimmable driver—simplifies installation, lowers stock needs, and accelerates multi-site deployments. Die-cast aluminum housing, Teflon-coated lens, Type V distribution, and a guardless design optimize durability and light control, while meeting industry expectations for rugged performance. With a 50/60 Hz operating range, a PF > 0.90, and an equivalent of a 100W HID, this luminaire supports retrofit programs and predictable ROI with minimal risk.

FAQs
When installing VMVL-5-UNV1-S896 in hazardous environments, note that there is no mounting module included; use suitable mounting hardware or existing fixtures that comply with Zone 21 and IP66/NEMA 4X protection. Follow Eaton's installation sheets for wiring within 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc systems, and ensure proper enclosure integrity to maintain hazardous-area classifications.
The luminaire provides 5000 lumens at 45 W, delivering about 127 lm/W and an equivalent HID output of 100 W. This results in lower energy consumption, reduced heat load, and fewer lamp replacements. Its dimmable driver and wide voltage range support retrofit projects while maintaining lighting quality and regulatory compliance in industrial settings.
Yes. The fixture is certified for NEC/CEC and IEC/IECEx/ATEX standards, with Zone 21 hazardous-location rating. It also carries NEMA 4X and IP66 ratings, ensuring robust protection against dust, water, and corrosive environments typical of chemical plants and offshore facilities.
Use non-corrosive mounting hardware compatible with the device’s Type V optical distribution and guardless design. Wire within the approved voltage range (100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc) using a dimmable driver, and reference IF 1888 instruction sheets for driver replacement. Regularly inspect Teflon-coated lens and aluminum housing for integrity to maintain IP66/NEMA 4X performance.
