High luminous output delivers 9000 lumens with 126 lumens per watt, enabling consistent visibility in hazardous areas and reducing time spent locating assets during outages. This supports safer operations, faster maintenance cycles, and improved incident responsiveness in chemical plants and refineries. The dimmable driver and universal voltage rating of 100-277 VAC (127-250 VDC) simplify system design, lowering installation costs and minimizing spare part variety while ensuring reliable performance across global sites. The die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens deliver robust ingress protection (IP66) and NEMA 4X suitability, extending service life in washdown and corrosive environments and reducing replacement cycles. Type III optical distribution focuses light where it’s needed, reducing glare and improving site safety in outdoor or large-area facilities. Alignment with hazardous-location standards (Class I Division 2, Zone 2; Zone 21 per IECEx/ATEX) supports compliant retrofits and new builds alike. The fixture ships without a mounting module, offering flexibility to integrate with existing brackets or third-party mounts, which streamlines installation and minimizes downtime. Finally, the LED solution delivers energy efficiency, lower heat output, and reduced maintenance compared to legacy HID equivalents, driving measurable operating-cost savings and safer, more reliable lighting coverage.

FAQs

Installers should verify Class I/II/III and Zone qualifications and confirm compatibility with existing mounting hardware since the VMVL-9-R3-UNV1-S903 ships without a mounting module. Ensure secure mounting in Type III distribution zones and maintain IP66/NEMA 4X protection by using appropriate seals and hardware. Power is universal 100-277 VAC with a dimmable driver, so wire routing should minimize voltage drop and avoid interference with control circuits. Follow local codes (NEC/CEC) and IECEx/ATEX guidelines for final terminations and testing.
The luminaire carries NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards, with hazardous ratings including Class I Division 2, Zone 2 and Zone 21 per IECEx/ATEX. It also meets NEMA 4X and IP66 ingress protection, ensuring resistance to harsh washdowns and outdoor exposure. These certifications support safe operation in hazardous environments such as chemical plants, refineries, and offshore facilities, while enabling global deployment.
Key specs include 9000 lumens with a high efficacy of 126 lm/W, a 76 W input, cool white color, and a dimmable driver. It operates at 50/60 Hz and supports universal voltage 100-277 VAC (127-250 VDC). With PF > 0.90, it delivers efficient performance while maintaining bright, glare-controlled illumination. Compared to HID equivalents, it reduces energy use and maintenance costs due to longer life and lower heat generation.
Yes, the VMVL is designed for Type III optical distribution, which optimizes light spread for outdoor or large-area hazardous environments. The product ships without a mounting module, allowing compatibility with existing brackets or third-party mounting solutions. This flexibility simplifies retrofits and new installations, minimizes inventory needs, and lets specifiers tailor mounting to facility layouts while preserving hazardous-location integrity.
The LED VMVL luminaire provides long life and reduced maintenance compared with HID equivalents, thanks to its robust die-cast aluminum body, IP66/NEMA 4X protection, and a dimmable driver. Energy savings from 9000 lumens at 76 W, coupled with lower cooling requirements and fewer lamp replacements in harsh environments, translate to lower total cost of ownership and improved reliability for critical operations in hazardous locations.
