FAQs
FR254J uses a recessed ceiling mounting method with a 53.13 inch overall length footprint and a 4.94 inch height, designed for flush installation in shipboard interiors. Ensure mounting cutouts and ceiling clearances accommodate the 9.13 inch width and 14 lb fixture weight, and verify compatible 120–277 VAC supply with 50/60 Hz electrical service.
Yes. FR254J is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards, aligning with typical shipboard interior lighting requirements. This reduces the need for hazardous location ratings while delivering reliable performance in cabins, corridors, and common areas.
FR254J operates at 120-277 VAC and 50/60 Hz, powered by two 54W T5HO lamps. This broad voltage window supports diverse vessel electrical systems, enabling easier replacements and fewer stock-keeping units across a fleet.
The FR254J carries NEC/CEC standards designation, indicating conformity with U.S. and Canadian electrical and safety guidelines. This enhances regulatory confidence, simplifies procurement for projects requiring formal compliance, and supports safer integration into shipboard electrical designs.
The aluminum housing and acrylic lens deliver corrosion resistance suitable for humid, saline atmospheres, reducing frequent replacements. A longer service life, lower maintenance downtime, and compatibility with standard shipboard voltages contribute to a favorable total cost of ownership and improved return on investment for marine facilities.
