With 7000 lumens and a 127 lm/W efficiency, the VMVL replaces higher-wattage HID equipment while cutting energy use and reducing maintenance cycles in demanding facilities such as refineries and chemical plants. This translates to lower operating costs and fewer service interruptions, improving worker safety and plant uptime. The IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4X enclosure guard sensitive electronics against water, dust, and corrosion, minimizing field repairs in harsh environments and extending service life. A wide voltage range from 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc paired with a dimmable driver enables seamless retrofits and integration with existing control schemes, supporting energy management programs and smart-buidling initiatives. The die-cast aluminum housing, heat-resistant glass lens, and pendant mounting provide reliable performance in ceiling plenums and outdoor-rated installations, reducing total cost of ownership. Type I optical distribution delivers consistent, glare-free illumination that meets task-specific requirements while keeping maintenance simple. No guard is specified, which simplifies field replacements and reduces upfront cost, while still maintaining essential protection through IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings. Designed for hazardous locations, the VMVL combines compliance with practical installation advantages, enabling rapid deployment and scalable coverage across multiple work cells. Industry professionals benefit from a robust, future-proof solution that supports ongoing safety programs and regulatory adherence.

FAQs
VMVL-7-2A-R1-UNV1 is designed for a wide voltage range of 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc, with a dimmable driver and a 50/60 Hz frequency rating. For retrofits, verify your site power aligns with these ranges and configure the dimming control to match existing controllers. This flexibility minimizes rewiring and simplifies integration with modern plant electrical systems while maintaining consistent lumen output across the voltage band.
VMVL carries NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX standards, Zone 21/Class I Division 2 ratings, and a NEMA 4X enclosure with IP66 protection. This combination confirms suitability for hazardous and classified locations, including Chemical Processing, Oil & Gas, and Petrochemical environments, while ensuring resistance to dust, water, and corrosive atmospheres and compliance with global electrical safety codes.
Yes. The VMVL features a pendant mounting method with a 3/4" trade size and a robust die-cast aluminum body. Its Type I optical distribution and glass lens ensure reliable illumination while the pendant setup simplifies ceiling installations and downstream maintenance, making it ideal for overhead mounting in hazardous locations.
The VMVL delivers 7000 lumens at 61W, achieving about 127 lm/W and replacing higher-wattage HID equivalents. This results in lower energy costs and reduced cooling load. Its sealed IP66/NEMA 4X construction minimizes ingress-related maintenance, and the LED technology provides longer service life with fewer replacement cycles in harsh environments.
Plan for proper mounting in a pendant configuration with a 3/4" threaded interface and ensure electrical connections meet NEC/CEC requirements for hazardous locations. Use compatible dimming controls and verify that the installation area maintains IP66 and NEMA 4X protection. Confirm Zone 21/Class I, Division 2 compliance and routine inspection schedules as part of your maintenance plan.
