High lumen output combined with efficiency reduces the number of fixtures needed to achieve target illuminance while minimizing total system power. VMVL delivers 7000 lumens at 127 lm/W with a 61W driver, helping facilities meet lighting requirements with fewer units and lower energy bills. The result is lower installed costs and reduced heat load, which translates to improved overall plant performance and safety in demanding environments. The hazardous-location protection—IP66, NEMA 4X, and IECEx/ATEX Zone 21—ensures compliance and safe operation in chemical, petrochemical, and mining settings, reducing regulatory risk and downtime. Power flexibility is a practical advantage; the luminaire supports 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc with a dimmable driver, enabling simplified wiring schemes and adaptive control. The wall-mount design with Type III optical distribution provides broad, uniform coverage, minimizing shadowed zones and enhancing worker safety. Constructed from die-cast aluminum with heat-resistant glass and a wire guard, the VMVL is built to endure vibration, dust, and moisture while maintaining light quality. These features collectively support easier retrofits, lower maintenance costs, and longer service life in harsh environments.

FAQs
VMVL-7-2TW-R3-G-UNV1 is designed for wall mounting with a 3/4 inch trade size connection. It operates over a broad input range of 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc, and it features a dimmable driver with a power factor greater than 0.90, enabling integration with common industrial power systems and controls without extensive rewiring.
This luminaire delivers 7000 lumens with an efficacy of 127 lm/W, drawing 61W. It runs at 50/60 Hz and is designed to replace a 175W HID equivalent, providing equivalent brightness with substantially lower energy consumption and heat generation.
Yes. It is certified for hazardous locations with IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X enclosure rating, plus IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 hazardous-location certification, making it appropriate for chemical plants, refineries, mining, and other classified locations.
The VMVL luminaire complies with NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX requirements, is rated for hazardous/classified locations, and features Zone 21 certification. It also carries area classifications for hazardous locations and an IP66/NEMA 4X rating for environmental protection.
The 61W LED driver and long service life reduce maintenance cycles and lamp-replacement costs. Energy savings from comparing 7000 lumens at 127 lm/W against HID equivalents, combined with lower heat and simpler controls via dimming, translate into faster ROI and increased plant uptime.
