The brass guard paired with a glass globe provides rugged protection against impact and moisture, reducing globe breakage and maintenance cycles in high-traffic areas where fixture safety is critical. This translates to lower downtime and longer intervals between replacements for industrial globe and guard assemblies used in manufacturing environments. The design is compatible with standard medium-base lamps, delivering predictable performance and simplifying procurement for plant electricians and procurement teams. With a 2 x 27W incandescent configuration, assemblies stay within familiar power rails while providing ample illumination for work zones and aisles. The flush-mount installation and 2-3/8 inch box depth streamline retrofits and new installs, enabling faster site deployment. IP66 ingress protection and NEC/CEC compliance help mitigate regulatory risk and support facilities operating in non-hazardous locations. The 300 VAC, 50/60 Hz rating ensures compatibility with prevailing electrical systems, reducing compatibility issues and spare-part inventory. Crouse-Hinds Pauluhn heritage informs reliable manufacturing and robust aftermarket support, while 7.63 inch length and 10.13 inch height align with common enclosure footprints for a tidy ceiling grid. Industry-specific context shows this enclosure is well-suited for production floors, warehouses, and processing areas where glass protection and weather sealing matter most.

FAQs

When planning installation, verify a flush-mount layout with a 2-3/8 inch box depth and medium base lamp compatibility. Use 300 VAC power and accommodate 50/60 Hz supply. Ensure proper sealing to maintain IP66 protection and confirm the fixture is placed in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations per NEC/CEC guidance. Reference installation sheets for step-by-step mounting and torque specs to prevent globe/glass guard damage.
No, the 729BF is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and carries an IP66 ingress protection level. It is not intended for hazardous or classified areas. For compliant operation, pair this globe and guard with appropriate non-hazardous-rated luminaires and observe all local electrical codes, including NEC/CEC requirements. If hazardous area lighting is needed, select a product specifically rated for those classifications.
The 729BF supports incandescent lighting with a maximum of 2 x 27W lamps. It uses a medium base (E26) suitable for A-19 size lamps. The unit is designed for 300 VAC operation and 50/60 Hz supplies, ensuring compatibility with common industrial power systems and enabling straightforward lamp replacements without rewiring.
IP66 protection shields the globe and guard from dust ingress and powerful water jets, reducing ingress-related contamination and weather-related damage. This minimizes unscheduled maintenance, extends service intervals, and preserves lighting reliability on open floors, loading docks, and similar environments where exposure to dust and moisture is common.
