High efficiency luminaire delivers 5000 lumens at 45W, achieving ~127 lm/W and reducing energy use compared with legacy HID equivalents, which lowers operating costs and heat generation in demanding plants. The business impact is tangible: lower electricity bills, longer fixture life, and reduced cooling loads for industrial facilities relying on hazardous-location lighting. The rugged die-cast aluminum housing, heat- and impact-resistant glass lens, and wire guard provide robust protection against impact, chemical exposure, and vibration, translating into higher uptime and fewer replacements in arduous environments. For installation, the Type III optical distribution optimizes outdoor-wide coverage, minimizing the number of fixtures needed to meet site lighting levels while maintaining uniformity across large exterior areas. The 1-1/2" trade size, stanchion 25° angled mounting, and 100-277Vac / 127-250Vdc capability simplify global deployment and retrofit projects, reducing labor time and field errors. Dimmable drivers enable precise control and energy savings, supporting demand management and compliance with energy codes. Industry-standard certifications (NEC/CEC, IECEx/ATEX Zone 21, IP66, NEMA 4X) address common objections about safety and regulatory conformance, giving engineers confidence for hazardous-area upgrades and new builds. The fixture’s warm white output (color temperature) aligns with task-critical illumination needs in chemical processing, oil & gas, and manufacturing, improving worker visibility, accuracy, and productivity. Overall, VMVL-5-W-J-R3-G-UNV1 delivers reliable, compliant, and cost-effective hazardous-area lighting with straightforward installation and maintenance.
