Eaton Specification Sheet - APS42870EMT1Z
Hazardous-location resilience → The APS42870EMT1Z uses a 316 stainless steel housing and a flat polycarbonate lens that resist corrosion and impact in classified areas. This directly reduces maintenance cycles and compliance risk, enabling uninterrupted operations in chemical plants and refineries. Application-oriented outcomes include extended service life and lower total cost of ownership, especially in environments where exposure to dust, vapors, or humidity is high. Energy-efficient design → Two-lamp, 4 ft T12HO RDC configuration delivers 48 W of light while maintaining ample lumen output for long corridors, work cells, and process areas. The result is lower energy consumption, reduced cooling load, and improved sustainability metrics, which is critical for facilities pursuing energy benchmarks and LEED-type credit considerations. This fixture is well-suited for retrofit projects where existing ballasts and housings need a compliant upgrade. Emergency readiness → The built-in emergency battery-backup ballast, with one lamp and a test switch, ensures safe egress illumination during power loss. This feature aligns with safety standards for exit paths in hazardous environments and supports regulatory compliance, emergency planning, and personnel safety drills without requiring complex retrofits. Installation practicality → Flat lens, 3/4 inch entry, and standard wall/ceiling mounting simplify installation and maintenance. The rigid enclosure and robust fasteners reduce field adjustments, while compatibility with 120–277 VAC and 50/60 Hz grids ensures reliable operation across facilities with mixed power supplies. Reliability and compliance → Rated IP66 and NEMA 4X, with Class I Division 2, this fixture is purpose-built for hazardous/classified locations. Its rugged construction and verified standards support ongoing regulatory compliance, inspection readiness, and predictable performance in extreme industrial environments.
