Champ VMV LED Hazardous Area
7000 lumens of high-efficiency output with 127 lm/W delivers bright, even illumination across large hazardous areas, reducing the number of fixtures required and lowering total installed wattage. The cool white LED output creates crisp visibility for operators and inspectors, improving safety and productivity in chemical, oil, and mining facilities. This lumen package supports Type I optical distribution to minimize glare while maximizing useful light in confined spaces. Durable die-cast aluminum housing and heat-resistant glass lens withstand industrial abuse and harsh environments. With IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings, the VMVL-7-3B-R1-UNV1 remains protected against dust and water jets, supporting continuous operation in dusty or wet processes. The 1" cone pendant mounting provides a robust, flexible installation option compatible with existing VMVL families. Dimmable driver and broad voltage range of 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc enable phased lighting, soft-start dimming, and easier control integration. High power-factor (>0.90) reduces reactive current, delivering energy savings and easier panel sizing. Its glass lens is heat- and impact-resistant to minimize replacement cycles in demanding environments. Compatibility with standard VMVL components and documentation ensures smooth procurement and maintenance. Certifications cover hazardous locations and international standards, reducing risk during audits and reworks. From a lifecycle perspective, the VMVL light fixture offers predictable performance, long service life, and lower total cost of ownership compared with older HID solutions. Industry context shows LEDs like VMVL reduce maintenance outages and improve compliance traceability in petrochemical and mining operations.
