Champ VMV LED Hazardous Area
Feature → Business Impact → Application: 9000 lumens at 126 lm/W delivers bright, energy-efficient illumination that reduces wattage compared to legacy HID equivalents, lowering energy costs and cooling loads in large industrial bays. This translates to measurable annual savings for facilities with long operating hours and strict uptime requirements, such as refineries and offshore platforms. Feature → Application → Industry relevance: Neutral white light enhances color discrimination for process control and safety in hazardous zones, while the LED chassis uses die-cast aluminum for superior heat dissipation and corrosion resistance in chemical environments, extending fixture life in aggressive atmospheres. Feature → Installation → Compatibility: 100-277 VAC and 127-250 VDC input support flexible power architectures, enabling seamless retrofits without additional drivers or wiring changes, ideal for facilities with mixed electrical infrastructure. Feature → Optical & footprint → Reliability: Type V optical distribution and a 1" trade size ceiling mount provide uniform coverage for long aisles and equipment rows, reducing shadowing and improving worker visibility. Feature → Protection → Compliance: IP66 and NEMA 4X enclosures tolerate washdowns and harsh environments, meeting NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX compliance (Zone 21) for Class I Division 2, Zone 2 operations and ensuring safety in hazardous locations. Feature → Maintenance → Longevity: Dimmable drivers and high-quality glass lens support longer maintenance intervals and compatibility with advanced lighting controls, enabling occupancy-based or daylight harvesting strategies in industrial plants.
