Eaton Specification Sheet - 729B
The brass guard provides robust protection for the glass globe, reducing breakage risk in busy plant environments and improving overall safety for personnel and equipment. This translates into fewer maintenance calls and lower replacement costs, enabling maintenance teams to focus on critical tasks while maintaining consistent illumination in industrial spaces. The assembly uses a glass globe with a medium-base socket supporting two 27-watt incandescent lamps, accommodating standard A-19 lamps for straightforward procurement and rapid lamp changes during scheduled maintenance. Engineers gain predictable performance with a 50/60 Hz supply at 300 VAC, aligning with common facility electrical systems and simplifying integration into existing power distributions. The 2 inch box depth and wall-mount configuration facilitate compact installation in tight enclosures, reducing footprint without compromising enclosure integrity. A sturdy brass guard and globe combination deliver long service life under vibration and incidental impacts typical in manufacturing floors. The unit ships with installation sheets and is referenced in 3D CAD drawings to ensure precise fitment in retrofit or new-build projects. This approach minimizes commissioning time and supports faster project timelines. The 729B aligns with ordinary locations, not hazardous areas, preventing unnecessary over-specification while still delivering reliability and compliance in industrial settings. Compatibility with Eaton’s Pauluhn 700-series family offers familiar mounting footprints and spare-part interchangeability, reducing total cost of ownership and simplifying procurement. The design is purpose-built for reliability, with components selected for robust operation in environments where frequent lamp replacements and guard protection are priorities. In summary, this fixture blends durable materials, compliant standards, and practical installation features to deliver consistent illumination with minimized downtime and predictable maintenance schedules.

Ensure the mounting location aligns with ordinary/non-hazardous classifications and that the enclosure remains IP66 protected.
The 729B is specified for incandescent operation with 2 x 27W lamps. LED substitutions are not rated in the official specification. If LED is considered, verify driver compatibility, heat management, and optic performance; otherwise select a fixture designed for LED globes to maintain IP66 protection and NEC/CEC compliance.
The 729B carries an IP66 rating, offering robust dust and water ingress protection. However, it is classified for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. For wash-down or high-pressure environments, confirm environmental suitability with your facility’s risk assessment and consider components designed specifically for wash-down schedules.
The 729B complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries an IP66 ingress protection rating. It is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, which informs appropriate use in non-hazardous industrial spaces and ensures regulatory alignment during audits.
The brass guard and glass globe provide durable protection against impact and breakage, reducing replacement frequency. The unit uses readily available 2 x 27W incandescent lamps with a medium-base socket for easy lamp changes. Its rugged construction, reliable IP66 protection, and standard mounting simplify maintenance planning and can lower total cost of ownership over the asset lifecycle.
