With 7000 lumens and 127 lm/W, VMVL-7-UNV34-UPLT delivers bright, uniform illumination that reduces the number of fixtures needed and lowers wiring runs, translating to capital expenditure savings and easier maintenance in long runs. The die-cast aluminum housing and heat and impact resistant glass lens provide rugged durability for extended service life, reducing replacement costs in harsh environments such as chemical plants and refineries. A dimmable driver and a broad 347–480 VAC range enable seamless integration with existing controls and energy management schemes, supporting smarter facility illumination and lower operating expenses. IP66 and NEMA 4X protection offer ingress resistance against dust, water, and corrosive industry environments, simplifying compliance and minimizing downtime due to weather or cleanup cycles. No mounting module reduces installation steps and hardware, while Type V optical distribution ensures predictable lighting patterns across demanding workspaces, speeding commissioning and enabling safer, more productive sites. The lightweight yet sturdy design supports retrofit projects and new builds alike, addressing common objections about compatibility and long-term maintenance in hazardous-area lighting applications.

FAQs

Plan for a 347–480 VAC supply and compatible dimming controls since the VMVL-7-UNV34-UPLT uses a dimmable driver. The unit features a die-cast aluminum housing, heat resistant glass, and an IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure, which minimizes ingress protection concerns in dusty or wet environments. With no mounting module required, installation is straightforward and reduces hardware counts. Ensure proper support for a 26 lb fixture and follow applicable local codes for hazardous locations (Class I, Zone 2 and Zone 21).
Yes. The fixture is IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 compliant and carries NEC/CEC hazardous ratings for Class I, Zone 2 and related classifications, along with a Class II/III rating. It also meets IP66 and NEMA 4X requirements, making it appropriate for harsh chemical and petrochemical environments where protection from dust, water, and corrosive elements is essential.
The luminaire delivers 7000 lumens at 59 W, achieving approximately 127 lumens per watt. This high efficacy enables fewer fixtures and lower energy consumption compared with HID equivalents—specifically a 175W HID equivalent—while maintaining superior light quality and longer service life, reducing maintenance intervals and total cost of ownership.
Ideal for hazardous process areas such as chemical plants, offshore platforms, refineries, and mining facilities. The Type V distribution supports wide, uniform lighting across work zones, while the uplight refractor lens enhances vertical illumination for improved task visibility. Its rugged build and IP66/NEMA 4X protection withstand damp, dusty, and corrosive environments typical of these industries.
