Feature → Business Impact → Application: Rugged aluminum housing and tempered glass lens provide impact resistance and corrosion protection, reducing replacement costs and downtime in chemical plants and refineries. This translates to lower maintenance intervals and reliable illumination across shifts, especially in corrosive or dusty environments where IP66 protection is essential for continuous operation. In practice, technicians deploy this fixture in hazardous locations to meet NEC/CEC requirements without compromising light quality. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Through-feed wiring and two 1/2" NPT hubs simplify installation and permit flexible wiring routes, shortening project timelines and enabling safer, compliant terminations in restricted spaces. This is particularly valuable for retrofit installations where access is limited and downtime must be minimized. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 32W, 4 ft, 3-lamp T8 configuration delivers high lumen output with energy efficiency, supporting long standby and reduced energy bills in production lines, clean rooms, and outdoor-adjacent facilities. This supports ROI calculations for upgrades focused on lighting quality and operating cost reductions. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 120–277 VAC operation at 50/60 Hz with a bolted door and through-feed design provides robust power distribution and quick servicing, reducing on-site labor and improving system uptime for industrial plants, warehouses, and mining operations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP66 and hazardous-location ratings (Class I, Division 2; Class II, Division 1; Class III) assure compliance with strict safety standards, enabling deployments in regulated environments where reliability and traceability matter for safety audits and insurance considerations.

FAQs

HBAB43171GW6 is designed for hazardous/classified locations with through-feed wiring. Install by feeding power through the two 1/2" NPT hubs and securing the bolted door. Use a 120–277 VAC supply at 50/60 Hz to power the 32W, 4 ft 3-lamp T8 system. Ensure the tempered glass lens is clean and sealed to maintain IP66 protection.
Key specs include 32W power draw, 4 ft lamp length, 3-lamp configuration, T8 bi-pin lamps, voltage range 120–277 VAC, frequency 50/60 Hz, and IP66 ingress protection. The fixture uses aluminum housing with a tempered-glass lens, a 6 ft 16/3 cord, and through-feed wiring with 1/2" NPT hubs for flexible installation in demanding environments.
HBAB43171GW6 is designed for hazardous/classified locations and carries NEC hazardous-location ratings (Class I, Division 2; Class II, Division 1; Class III). While not all Class I, Division 1 zones are identical, this fixture is specified for hazardous areas and supports safe operation in many refinery, chemical processing, and power-generation environments when installed per code.
The fixture complies with NEC/CEC standards for hazardous locations, features IP66 ingress protection, and a NEMA 4 rating for exterior harsh environments. It uses a bolted door design and through-feed configuration to maintain secure terminations, making it suitable for regulated industrial facilities seeking reliable compliance and safety.
With a 32W, 4 ft 3-lamp layout and tempered-glass lens, the HBAB43171GW6 delivers energy efficiency and robust light output with lower replacement frequency in harsh settings. The aluminum housing provides durability, while through-feed wiring and a bolted door simplify servicing, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership over the fixture’s life cycle.
