Fiberglass-reinforced polyester housing provides corrosion resistance and structural strength, translating to longer service life in demanding industrial environments. This material choice reduces maintenance costs and downtime while delivering a lightweight yet durable frame for easier handling during installation. Through-feed wiring and a single non-metallic cable gland plus end plug entry design streamline field connections, enabling faster commissioning and fewer disruption events on the line. The matte polycarbonate lens offers high impact resistance and good optical clarity, improving worker visibility and reducing maintenance cycles due to lens damage. IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings deliver dependable protection against dust, water jets, and harsh washdown conditions, supporting safe operation in wet or dusty spaces. A 32W, 2-lamp fluorescent configuration with 50/60 Hz operation provides efficient, steady illumination across 4 ft lamp segments with consistent color rendering. The 120–277V voltage range supports flexible supply configurations, while the optional emergency battery back-up ballast ensures continued illumination during outages, maximizing uptime. Installation and compatibility are enhanced by the long 52.8 in fixture length and 277V max capability for certain emergency scenarios, making FPS232EM2 a reliable choice for maintenance bays, production floors, and process areas.
