Eaton Specification Sheet - EVIA2501
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The EVIA2501 uses a heat and impact resistant glass globe with a cast copper-free aluminum guard, delivering exceptional protection against vibration, chemical exposure, and particulate ingress. This reduces unscheduled downtime and replacement costs in hazardous locations while maintaining consistent light output for production floors, refineries, and mining sites. Application: installation teams benefit from a durable, sealed glow that keeps luminaires performing across multiple shifts. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The pendant-mount design supports a 3/4" trade size with a PS-40 max lamp, enabling straightforward retrofits and compatible upgrades in facilities that rely on incandescent lighting. Application: maintenance crews appreciate simpler wiring and mounting, saving on labor time during commissioning and upgrades. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 277 Vac operation with a 500W incandescent lamp provides high-intensity illumination while leveraging existing electrical infrastructure, reducing rework and additional circuitry costs. Application: ideal for area lighting in offshore rigs, chemical plants, and heavy industrial corridors where bright, reliable light is essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings, plus Hazardous/Classified Locations certifications, deliver rugged reliability in wet, dusty, and explosive environments. Application: compliance assurance for safety programs, with longer service life and lower maintenance in Class I/Zone 1 environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Factory sealed construction and heat/impact resistant globe minimize ingress and physical damage, enabling extended service intervals and reduced spare-part inventory. Application: long-term cost savings in facilities with high vibration, temperature swings, or aggressive chemicals. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Copper-free aluminum guard and durable materials reduce corrosion risk and weight, easing handling during installation and service while improving overall lifecycle performance. Application: useful in offshore terminals, chemical processing plants, and mining operations where corrosion resistance matters.
