Eaton Specification Sheet - FRS232J
The aluminum housing and acrylic lens deliver robust corrosion resistance, extending service life in salt-laden marine environments and reducing maintenance costs over time. This translates to fewer replacements, lower downtime, and greater fleet-uptime for critical operations. The 120–277 VAC, 50/60 Hz compatibility provides flexible power integration across international fleets, delivering predictable performance without the need for costly transformers. A 32W total draw across two lamps delivers greater energy efficiency and lower operating costs compared with older 4 ft fixtures. The recessed ceiling mounting offers a clean, low-profile aesthetic that simplifies installation in tight compartment ceilings and distributes light evenly across work areas. Compliance with NEC/CEC standards and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification minimizes regulatory risk and eases commissioning during audits. The 4 ft, two-lamp configuration supports scalable lighting layouts for large engine rooms or accommodation areas while maintaining consistent illumination quality. Downstream benefits include easy access to data sheets, 3D models, and catalogs for rapid procurement and maintenance planning, reducing lead times and simplifying asset management.
