FAQs

VMVL-7-J-R1-G-UNV1-S831 is certified for NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 and Class I, Division 2 installations. It supports 100–277 Vac and 127–250 Vdc, features a 1-1/2 inch trade opening, and includes a stanchion 25° angled mount with a wire guard. This makes retrofits straightforward and minimizes rewiring, while maintaining compliance with hazardous-location codes.
This luminaire delivers 7000 lumens at 127 lm/W with a 61 W draw, and a power factor > 0.90. It operates at 50/60 Hz and supports dimmable drivers. Voltage tolerance spans 100–277 Vac and 127–250 Vdc, enabling global deployment without multiple SKUs. The LED platform replaces 175 W HID with superior efficiency and longer life.
Yes. The unit is rated IP66 and NEMA 4X for rugged, washdown-prone environments and carries NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 certification. Its die-cast aluminum housing, glass lens, and safety features like a wire guard satisfy stringent safety and enclosure requirements common in chemical processing and petrochemical facilities.
Consider using the 25° angled stanchion mount for targeted illumination, ensuring proper clearance for the glass lens and guard. The 1-1/2" trade size simplifies conduit connections, while the die-cast body and lens assembly support robust mounting in vibration-prone areas. Plan for dimming control compatibility and control-system integration to maximize energy savings.
Replacing HID equivalents with 61 W LEDs delivering 7000 lumens yields substantial energy savings per fixture, plus lower maintenance due to longer LED life. The IP66/NEMA 4X ruggedness reduces enclosure-related upkeep, and the dimmable driver supports adaptive lighting strategies, collectively lowering total cost of ownership in repeated-washdown, high-traffic industrial settings.
