FAQs
VMVL-9-R3-UNV1 is designed for hazardous-area use and features IP66 protection, NEMA 4X construction, and no mounting module. When planning installation, verify Class I, Division 2 or Zone 2/Zone 21 compliance per NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX. Ensure proper wiring within the universal input range and standard control gear compatibility, so mounting aligns with Type III distribution coverage for optimal illumination.
The luminaire operates on a universal input of 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc, with 50/60 Hz frequency. It draws 76 W and delivers 9000 lumens at a brightness of 126 lm/W. The dimmable driver supports flexible control, and the unit maintains a power factor greater than 0.90, contributing to efficient electrical systems and reduced reactive power.
Yes. The VMVL-9-R3-UNV1 is certified for hazardous locations, including NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX, with classifications such as Class I Division 2, Zone 2 and Zone 21. It also provides IP66 protection and NEMA 4X housing, ensuring safe operation in harsh industrial environments like chemical plants, mining sites, and offshore facilities.
The fixture measures 13 in in length, 13.13 in in height, and 12.75 in in width, with a weight of 20.8 lb. These dimensions influence mounting clearances and wiring space, so verify ceiling or pole mount compatibility, along with Type III distribution alignment, for precise coverage and serviceability during retrofits.
Upgrading to VMVL LED delivers roughly 9000 lumens at 76 W, offering substantial energy savings versus 250W HID. Benefits include longer service life, reduced maintenance intervals, dimmable operation, and improved safety through steady, high-quality light in challenging environments. The rugged construction and robust certifications also minimize enclosure and retrofitting costs while meeting regulatory requirements.
