Eaton Specification Sheet - 749BQ
Brass housing and heat-resistant glass lens deliver rugged durability in challenging environments. This design minimizes corrosion, lens hazing, and heat-related failure, translating to longer service life and reduced maintenance costs. In practice, teams deploying outdoor yards, dock areas, and dusty processing zones gain reliable visibility with fewer disruptive replacements. High-output quartz-halogen lamp with 120 VAC supply delivers high-intensity illumination critical for safety and throughput. The bright output supports faster equipment setup, clearer marker reading, and improved fault detection on busy lines. The result is improved productivity without sacrificing energy performance or ballast compatibility in standard industrial power circuits. Surface mounting and medium optical distribution simplify installation and ensure even light coverage. Quick mounting reduces labor time during plant upgrades, while the medium distribution minimizes glare and shadows across aisles and workstations. This combination is ideal for equipment bays, maintenance corridors, and outdoor walkways where consistent lighting matters. IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4 enclosure provide dust-tight, water-resistant performance in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This rugged protection helps the fixture withstand washdowns, rain, and industrial dust, extending service intervals and lowering total cost of ownership. It aligns with NEC/CEC requirements, easing code compliance in many facilities. Brass construction with heat-resistant glass lens supports durability and chemical resistance in demanding environments. This resilience reduces corrosion-induced failures across shifts and seasons, supporting long-term reliability. The 749BQ also integrates seamlessly with the Pauluhn family for scalable lighting architectures across facilities. Compatibility with Pauluhn 700 Series catalog lineage enables scalable lighting upgrades and standardized spares, simplifying maintenance planning. This approach lowers downtime and accelerates modernization projects, delivering measurable ROI through reduced replacement cycles and consistent performance.

FAQs
The 749BQ is designed to integrate with Eaton Crouse-Hinds Pauluhn lighting families, offering a seamless upgrade path for facilities already using Pauluhn fixtures. Its surface-mount design and medium optical distribution align with common Pauluhn ceiling layouts, enabling straightforward retrofits with minimal rework. When planning an upgrade, verify mounting footprint, power wiring, and enclosure compatibility to ensure a smooth transition and consistent light distribution across the area.
The 749BQ uses a 1000W quartz-halogen lamp operating at 120 VAC. This combination provides high-intensity, immediate illumination ideal for large areas, loading docks, and process spaces. The quartz-halogen technology offers bright white light with fast start-up and reliable performance in non-hazardous environments, while the standard 120 VAC supply supports typical industrial power distribution without special wiring.
Yes, the 749BQ is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations with IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4 enclosure, making it capable of withstanding dust and water exposure typical of outdoor and washdown environments. While it is not intended for hazardous locations, its rugged enclosure and brass housing provide reliable performance in challenging non-hazardous sites such as outdoor racking, walkways, and equipment perimeters.
The 749BQ adheres to NEC/CEC standards and features NEMA 4 enclosure protection, alongside IP66 ingress protection. These specifications support code-compliant installation in ordinary/non-hazardous industrial facilities and ensure resilience against dust and water exposure. This combination helps facilities meet typical electrical safety and performance requirements during audits and inspections.
Durable brass housing and heat-resistant glass lens reduce corrosion and lens degradation, lowering maintenance frequency and downtime. The unit’s surface-mount design accelerates installations and upgrades, while standard mounting interfaces simplify parts availability and spares planning. Over time, these factors translate to lower total cost of ownership and a favorable return on investment during facility modernization projects.
