FAQs
VMVL-7-W-UNV1-S831 is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations (Class I, Division 2; Zone 2) per NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX Zone 21. It uses a rugged die-cast aluminum housing with a glass lens and IP66 protection, which simplifies field installation in enclosed areas. Ensure proper wiring with the supplied voltage range (100-277 Vac, 127-250 Vdc) and follow the latest Eaton installation sheets for wiring polarity, grounding, and safety cable usage.
Yes. The luminaire accepts 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc, providing flexible integration in sites with mixed or evolving power infrastructure. The dimmable driver supports energy management strategies, allowing you to tune brightness for task-based workflows while maintaining consistent color temperature and lumen output, which is especially beneficial in high-risk environments needing reliable illumination.
This model uses no mounting module, designed to be installed with site-specific mounting solutions that preserve its IP66 and 4X ratings. Compatibility considerations include ensuring a secure, vibration-resistant attachment in vibration-prone areas, and verifying that mounting hardware does not obstruct the glass lens or impair ingress protections. The product is compatible with standard VMVL form-factor luminaires when integrated with approved mounting hardware.
The VMVL-7-W-UNV1-S831 carries NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX hazardous ratings (Zone 21), IP66 ingress protection, and NEMA 4X enclosure protection. These certifications demonstrate suitability for hazardous locations, resistance to dust and water ingress, and rugged outdoor or industrial environments. For compliance-driven projects, these standards help meet regulatory requirements and reduce risk during audits and inspections.
With 7000 lumens at 127 lm/W and a long-life LED engine housed in a die-cast aluminum body, the VMVL fixture reduces maintenance downtime and replacement costs. The dimmable driver enables adaptive lighting to save energy, while IP66/NEMA 4X protection minimizes field service for dust, water, and corrosion resistance. Overall, expect lower total cost of ownership and improved site safety.
