Feature → Business Impact → ApplicationBrass housing with heat-resistant glass lens provides exceptional corrosion resistance and thermal stability, reducing replacement cycles in damp or humid environments and extending service life across year-round operations. This enables maintenance teams to allocate resources more effectively while preserving lighting performance in wash-down zones and outdoor prep areas.Incandescent 300W lamp at 120 VAC delivers strong, localized illumination with straightforward lamp replacement on standard power circuits, cutting downtime during maintenance windows and simplifying spare parts inventories for plant engineers. Ideal for retrofit projects where existing 120 VAC infrastructure is in place and high-output spot lighting is required near machinery.Medium optical distribution ensures even light spill over target surfaces without hotspots, improving visibility for operators and inspectors. This supports quality control workflows, equipment calibration tasks, and safer pedestrian pathways in production corridors.Surface mounting offers fast, tool-friendly installation with minimal enclosure modification, reducing project timelines and labor costs for retrofits or new-builds. Compatible with standard electrical boxes and mounting hardware used in industrial facilities, it accelerates commissioning in tight spaces.IP66 ingress protection and NEMA 4X enclosure deliver reliable protection against dust and high-pressure water exposure, reducing field failures in wash-down zones, outdoor loading docks, and non-hazardous locations. This protection level translates to lower maintenance costs and longer mean time between outages.Documentation and compatibility resources—Catalog pages and installation sheets—support proper selection, compliant installations, and efficient ongoing maintenance, reinforcing a dependable lighting strategy aligned with NEC/CEC standards.

FAQs

The 746BMR is designed for surface-mount installations using standard hardware. Follow the included installation sheets LBL1236 to ensure proper gasket seating, mounting alignment, and electrical connections. Verify 120 VAC supply, confirm the brass housing is clean and free of debris, and seal all ingress points to maintain IP66 integrity in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations.
The 746BMR is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and features IP66 and NEMA 4X protections. It is not intended for use in classified hazardous areas. If exposure to hazardous atmospheres is possible, select a certified hazardous-location fixture and consult an engineering judgment for suitable enclosure protection and compliance.
The unit uses a 300W incandescent lamp at 120 VAC with a brass housing and heat-resistant glass lens. This aligns with standard 120 VAC electrical infrastructure found in many facilities, simplifying replacement parts. Its medium optical distribution provides balanced illumination across work surfaces, reducing glare and improving task visibility for operators and inspectors.
Routine checks should include lamp replacement on a scheduled maintenance window, lens cleaning to maintain light output, and inspection of seals to preserve IP66 integrity. Brass housings resist corrosion, but periodic cleaning helps maintain appearance and heat dissipation, while the heat-resistant glass lens protects the lamp and operators from heat exposure.
IP66 and NEMA 4X protection reduce dust ingress and water intrusion, lowering maintenance frequency and downtime in wet or dusty environments. Coupled with NEC/CEC compliance and robust construction, the fixture offers predictable performance, longer service life, and lower total cost of ownership in non-hazardous industrial settings.
