Eaton Specification Sheet - FPS217EM2
Feature through-feed design and a two-lamp 17W operation provide consistent illumination across long runs, reducing hot spots and simplifying maintenance planning. Business impact: lower downtime and fewer re-lamping cycles, enabling more productive manufacturing and packing workflows. Application: warehouses, distribution centers, and production lines where continuous light is critical. Feature IP66 protection with a NEMA 4X enclosure guards against dust, moisture, and corrosive environments, extending service life in industrial spaces. Business impact: fewer replacements, lower maintenance costs, and improved safety compliance in damp or washdown areas. Application: outdoor walkways and damp loading docks in ordinary locations. Feature matte polycarbonate lens and fiberglass-reinforced polyester housing deliver impact resistance and glare control without adding heavy weight. Business impact: longer fixture life, reduced replacement parts, and better worker comfort. Application: high-collision zones, mezzanines, and crowded plant floors. Feature 120–277 VAC operation at 50/60 Hz with a through-feed wiring entry (one non-metallic gland, one end plug) simplifies field installation and daisy-chaining. Business impact: faster commissioning, easier upgrades, and compatibility with existing Pauluhn Intrepid lighting systems. Application: retrofit and new-build projects in non-hazardous areas. Feature emergency battery-backup ballast provides illumination during power outages, supporting safety sequences and egress requirements. Business impact: maintained visibility during outages, reduced risk, and improved ROI through uninterrupted operations. Application: facilities requiring continuity lighting for safety and compliance.
