Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VMVL-7-R3-UNV1 uses a die-cast aluminum housing with a heat- and impact-resistant glass lens, delivering robust mechanical protection that reduces maintenance frequency in harsh environments. This translates to lower total cost of ownership for mining, refining, and chemical processing facilities where corrosive atmospheres and temperature swings are common. Application: hazardous-area lighting in plants where durability and longevity are critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A Type III optical distribution optimizes site-wide illumination, improving visibility and safety for outdoor yards, loading docks, and restricted work zones. This results in faster task completion and fewer accidents, particularly in night-shift operations. Application: outdoor hazardous locations where precise lighting control is needed. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Dimmable driver and wide voltage range (100-277 VAC, 127-250 VDC) enable seamless integration with existing power rails and smart controls, reducing wiring complexity and retrofit costs. Application: retrofits in plants upgrading legacy HID systems to LED performance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X sealing protect internal components from dust, water, and chemical exposure, boosting uptime in washdown areas and offshore facilities. Application: washdown zones, chemical plants, and offshore platforms. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 and NEC Class I, Division 2/Zone 2 approvals provide compliance certainty for global deployments, minimizing risk during commissioning and reducing the need for alternate approvals. Application: multinational operations with varied regulatory requirements. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Glass lens and rated lumen output (7000 lm at 127 lm/W) deliver high-efficiency lighting with consistent photometrics, enabling safer navigation in large industrial spaces and reducing energy consumption compared with legacy HID systems. Application: high-bay and corridor lighting in hazardous locations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: No mounting module requirement simplifies installation by shortening mounting time and reducing hardware count, accelerating project timelines at scale. Application: new-builds and retrofit programs where installation speed matters. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 175W HID equivalent performance ensures a familiar light level for operators during transition to LED, supporting continuity in process monitoring and safety compliance. Application: facilities standardizing lighting across multiple lines.

FAQs

The VMVL-7-R3-UNV1 is designed for installation without a separate mounting module, reducing installation time and parts count. Its die-cast aluminum body and glass lens withstands industrial environments, while Type III optics ensure effective illumination. For best results, verify mounting footprint and use recommended corrosion-resistant fasteners in Class I, Division 2 or Zone 21 locations.
This model accepts a broad voltage range of 100-277 VAC and 127-250 VDC and includes a dimmable driver. This enables integration with standard building controls or smart lighting systems, supporting energy savings and tailored illumination schedules without requiring multiple SKUs.
Yes. The fixture carries IP66 protection and a NEMA 4X rating, making it suitable for outdoor and washdown environments within hazardous locations. This protects against dust, water jets, and corrosive exposure typical of chemical plants, mining sites, and offshore facilities.
The VMVL-7-R3-UNV1 carries IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 approvals and NEC/CEC compliance for hazardous locations, including Class I, Division 2 and Zone 2 ratings. This broad certification suite supports global deployments with reduced need for site-specific approvals.
Upgrading to this LED fixture yields lower energy costs due to 7000 lm output at 127 lm/W and a long-rated life, reducing replacement cycles. The rugged housing, glass lens, and IP66/NEMA 4X protection minimize maintenance in tough environments, driving faster ROI through uptime gains and fewer ballast/HID replacements.
