FAQs
The VMVL-9-W-UNV1-S903 is described with a 'No mounting module' configuration, which means installation relies on compatible mounting hardware and enclosure integration chosen for the specific site. Engineers should select approved mounts that maintain the fixture’s IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings while ensuring Type V light distribution remains unobstructed. Planning for vibration, seals, and conduit entries is essential to preserve safety classifications.
This luminaire delivers 9,000 lumens at approximately 126 lm/W, with a 76 W drive equivalent to a 250 W HID in brightness and coverage. Compared to HID, the VMVL-9-W-UNV1-S903 provides instant-on performance, better color stability (Warm White), and significantly lower energy consumption. The improved ballast efficiency reduces long-term operating costs while maintaining compliance in hazardous environments.
Yes. The fixture carries NEC hazardous ratings including Class I Division 2 and Zone 2, as well as IECEx/ATEX Zone 21 certification, making it suitable for these hazardous locations. It also offers IP66 and NEMA 4X protection, which ensures robust ingress protection in harsh industrial settings like chemical plants and offshore facilities.
The VMVL-9-W-UNV1-S903 complies with NEC/CEC, IEC/IECEx/ATEX standards and Zone 21 approval, and features IP66 ingress protection with NEMA 4X suitability. This combination assures safe operation in hazardous/classified locations and aligns with global and regional safety requirements, simplifying cross-border deployments.
LED technology provides extended service life and lower maintenance compared with HID equivalents, reducing downtime and replacement costs. The higher energy efficiency (126 lm/W) and dimmable driver enable better control of energy usage, while robust IP66/NEMA 4X protection and Zone 21 approvals minimize risk of unplanned outages in demanding industrial sites.
