FAQs
FPS217EM2RV-1 supports through-feed wiring with one non-metallic cable gland and one end plugged, enabling flexible field connections. For installation, mount the fixture in the desired orientation, route power and ballast connections through the gland, and seal to maintain IP66 integrity. This design simplifies relocations and minimizes field cabling complexity.
This fixture operates at 120–277 Vac, 50/60 Hz, with a 17W per lamp, two-lamp configuration and T8 bi-pin lamps. It includes an emergency battery back-up ballast compatible up to 277V, and is designed for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations under NEC/CEC standards, making it widely compatible with standard industrial power systems.
No. FPS217EM2RV-1 is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and features IP66 and NEMA 4X enclosures. It is not certified for hazardous (classified) locations or cleanroom environments. For hazardous locations, consider alternative models with the appropriate hazardous-location ratings.
Regular maintenance should include inspecting the emergency ballast operation, checking the battery back-up performance, and verifying lens integrity. The fiberglass-reinforced polyester housing and matte polycarbonate lens resist wear in dusty or damp environments, but periodic cleaning and lamp/ballast replacement per manufacturer guidance help maintain optimal light output.
The fixture delivers reliable illumination with IP66/NEMA 4X protection, emergency back-up capability, and easy installation, which together reduce downtime, improve safety, and support compliance with NEC/CEC standards. Its balanced 17W two-lamp design lowers energy use while maintaining adequate brightness across industrial spaces, contributing to lower operating costs over the lifecycle.
