Lumens and efficiency translate to real-world productivity: VMVL-7-3A-UNV1 delivers 7000 lumens at 127 lumens per watt with cool white light, enabling high-visibility work environments while consuming less energy than legacy HID systems. The 61 W driver supports a 50/60 Hz supply and a dimmable driver option, letting facilities tune illumination levels to task requirements, reduce glare, and extend lamp life in high-traffic areas. The durable die-cast aluminum housing paired with a heat and impact resistant glass lens provides robust protection in dusty, humid, and corrosive settings, while the IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings safeguard against water, dust, and weathering. For installation efficiency, the 1" trade size and pendant mounting offer flexible placement in ceilings and hazardous-area enclosures, with Type V distribution delivering uniform coverage across long aisles or workstations. The product's hazardous-location approvals—NEC/CEC, IECEx/ATEX, Zone 2, and Zone 21—address strict regulatory requirements, reducing risk during audits and upgrades. Industry-focused benefits include lower maintenance cycles, predictable lumen maintenance, and simplified spares management for chemical plants, refineries, and offshore facilities.

FAQs
For optimal protection, install with the pendant mounting in clean, vibration-free mounting rails or ceilings designed for hazardous areas. Use compatible conduit fittings and sealed electrical enclosures, confirm the fixture is wired to a supply within the 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc range, and follow NEC/CEC guidelines to maintain NEMA 4X and IP66 integrity during commissioning.
The VMVL-7-3A-UNV1 delivers 7000 lumens at a measured 127 lm/W efficiency with a 61 W driver, ensuring bright, uniform illumination. It operates at 50/60 Hz and maintains a power factor greater than 0.90, which reduces reactive power and improves overall electrical system efficiency.
Industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, petrochemical refining, and offshore platforms benefit most. Zone 2/Zone 21 approvals, NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX compliance, and rugged NEMA 4X/IP66 protection address corrosive atmospheres, moisture, dust, and explosive-hazard environments common in these sectors.
The luminaire meets NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards, with hazardous-location ratings including Class I Division 2 and Zone 2, as well as Zone 21 per IECEx. NEMA 4X and IP66 provide durable enclosure protection. These certifications simplify regulatory audits, support safe operations, and reduce downtime due to noncompliance during maintenance and upgrades.
With LEDs rated for long life, high efficiency, and rugged housing, maintenance intervals are extended compared to HID systems, reducing replacement and labor costs. The dimmable driver option and broad input range simplify installations, while the robust enclosure minimizes corrosion-related downtime, delivering a lower total cost of ownership over the asset lifetime.
