FAQs
FRD332RV-1 supports a universal voltage range of 120–277 Vac and operates at 50/60 Hz, enabling compatibility with diverse naval and commercial power systems. This reduces the need for multiple part numbers and simplifies integration with existing vessel electrical architectures, lowering installation time and risk during retrofits or new builds.
Yes. The fixture is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards, making it appropriate for general interior spaces such as cabins and corridors where harsh explosive atmospheres are not present. This supports safe, code-compliant illumination across typical shipboard environments.
The recessed ceiling mounting design streamlines installation by integrating into standard ceiling coffers, reducing protrusions and interference with ductwork or navigation equipment. This yields faster commissioning, easier future maintenance, and a neater interior finish, which is particularly valuable in retrofit projects or limited-access engine rooms.
FRD332RV-1 features a 4 ft, 3-lamp configuration with T8 lamps and an acrylic lens housed in galvanized steel for superior corrosion resistance. The red filter tube with separate ballast per lamp adds flexible lighting control, while a broad voltage range and NEC/CEC compliance address multiple regulatory and design requirements common in diverse maritime applications.
Maintenance benefits stem from the galvanized steel housing and acrylic lens, which resist corrosion in humid maritime conditions. The 3-lamp setup allows partial lamp replacement without total luminaire downtime, and the separate ballast per lamp simplifies ballast maintenance. Official installation instructions and datasheets provide guidance to ensure seals and mounting retain integrity over time.
