Eaton Specification Sheet - FAS217EMT2
Two-lamp configuration with 17W ballast-efficient operation delivers strong lumen output while keeping energy use low. This combination reduces operating costs and heat load, extending lamp life and lowering replacement cycles. It is well-suited for long runs along production lines, aisles, and workstations where consistent, glare-controlled light is critical. Flexible power input supports 120-277 VAC and 50/60 Hz, enabling a single fixture family across facilities with varied power distribution. The through-feed design minimizes junction boxes and simplifies wiring, accelerating installation and reducing field labor. Operators gain predictable performance without costly site adaptations. Entry type includes one non-metallic cable gland and one end plugged, providing straightforward mounting and wiring options. This reduces installation time while maintaining a clean, code-compliant termination footprint. The unit is compatible with standard T8 bi-pin lamps and a 2 ft lamp length for modular retrofit projects. Through-feed option also supports future expansion without rewiring. Rugged housing features aluminum construction and a matte polycarbonate lens for durability and easy cleaning in dusty or oily environments. IP66 ingress protection and a NEMA 4 rating safeguard against dust and water jets, ensuring reliable operation in harsh facilities. The rugged build supports long service intervals and lower maintenance costs. Emergency battery-backup ballast provides one-lamp, 277V maximum operation with a test switch, improving safety and compliance for egress lighting. The system maintains illumination during power outages and aligns with fire and life-safety requirements. Field service remains straightforward thanks to integrated components and Eaton's installation literature. Maintenance access is straightforward with standard mounting practices. Warranty and support resources from Eaton help optimize ROI over the fixture's life.
