FAQs
For hazardous locations, ensure proper mounting on ceilings using the 3/4" trade size, confirm compatibility with 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc supply, and seal all junctions to preserve IP66 integrity. Use the wire guard for physical protection and verify the Type V optical distribution provides the desired coverage in the workspace. Follow IECEx/ATEX and NEC guidelines during commissioning.
This fixture is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations and supports IECEx/ATEX Zone 21, along with NEC hazardous ratings for multiple Class I/Division and Class II/Division scenarios. It also carries a NEMA 4X enclosure and IP66 ingress protection, ensuring safety against moisture, dust, and corrosive environments in demanding facilities.
The VMVL delivers 7000 lumens at 61W, achieving approximately 127 lm/W and replacing a 175W HID equivalent. This results in lower energy consumption, reduced heat output, and extended maintenance intervals. The dimmable driver enables tailored light levels for different processes, improving comfort and safety while delivering a faster return on investment.
Ideal for chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, mining operations, and other hazardous locations requiring robust lighting, the VMVL-7-W-2C-G-UNV1 supports Type V distribution for wide-area coverage, IP66/NEMA 4X protection for tough environments, and a ceiling-mount installation that adapts well to retrofit and new-construction projects.
