Eaton FT240 Fluorescent Luminaire - NEC/CEC Compliance
Part Number: FT240
Quick Summary
Eaton FT240 fluorescent luminaire is a 2-lamp marine interior lighting fixture designed for 120 Vac, 60 Hz operation. For engineers and maintenance teams on vessels, routine lamp replacements and corrosion risk are ongoing challenges in tight, marine spaces. Copper-free aluminum housing and an acrylic lens resist harsh saltwater environments, while NEC/CEC standards and the Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification guide safe, code-compliant installations. Recessed ceiling mounting and a 2-lamp configuration simplify retrofits and reduce installation time. Aligning with the Pauluhn Meridian FT family, the FT240 delivers predictable performance and lifecycle value, supporting tight schedules, spare-part compatibility, and measurable efficiency gains across fleets. This design also enhances procurement simplicity through compatible catalogs and 3D resources.
