Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VMVL LED light fixture delivers 7000 lumens at 127 lm/W with a 61W power draw, enabling bright, energy-efficient illumination that reduces operating costs and heat load in confined spaces such as chemical processing floors and refineries. This translates to lower energy bills and longer fixture life, particularly in maintenance-heavy environments, while maintaining consistent lighting quality during 50/60 Hz operation in hazardous locations. Application: Hazardous/Classified Locations lighting where Type V distribution is required and high reliability is critical. The LED driver is dimmable, enabling fine-tuned illumination control to optimize visibility and safety across shifts, with compatibility for 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc power rails, simplifying installation and wiring. In practice, this reduces downtime during re-lamping and supports retrofit projects from HID to LED without sacrificing performance. The die-cast aluminum body with a heat- and impact-resistant glass lens and wire guard provides robust protection against impact and corrosive environments, extending service life in industrial settings. Application: Offshore platforms, chemical plants, and other hazardous-area facilities where IP66 and NEMA 4X protection are essential for outdoor or harsh indoor conditions. The unit’s 3/4" trade size and pendant mounting offer flexible installation options in ceiling- or hung configurations, reducing capital expenditure on mounting hardware and enabling scalable deployments. The VMVL's 50/60 Hz compatibility and high PF (>0.90) support stable electrical performance, minimize harmonic distortion, and align with power quality requirements in automated plants. Application: Retrofit of legacy HID fixtures where 175W HID equivalents must be achieved with improved reliability and lower maintenance costs. The product’s glass lens and guard design help guard optics from damage, preserving light output and extending service life in dynamic industrial environments. The combination of IP66 and Zone 21/Class I Division 2 certifications ensures compliance with global safety standards while delivering predictable performance in a wide range of process environments.
