Eaton Specification Sheet - QA1603
Copper-free aluminum housing delivers excellent corrosion resistance, reducing repainting and component replacement in coastal and washdown zones; the business impact is lower lifecycle costs and higher uptime for offshore and inland plants. This translates to faster project turnovers and less maintenance disruption in industrial facilities, docks, and processing sites, enabling reliable outdoor area lighting with fewer service calls. The IP66 ingress protection and NEC/CEC compliance protect workers and equipment in ordinary/non-hazardous locations, ensuring safe operation in rain, dust, and spray zones; installation teams benefit from straightforward code-aligned validation and fewer field reworks. The 6x6 optical distribution provides uniform coverage, reducing the number of fixtures required and lowering energy use; this supports perimeter and general area lighting efficiencies for large outdoor spaces. Quartz-halogen lamps deliver immediate, high-brightness output with good color rendering, supporting critical visual tasks in hazardous-free zones and reducing restart delays after power fluctuations. The trunnion mounting allows flexible aiming and rapid alignment, cutting installation time and simplifying ongoing maintenance in tight or elevated mounting points. A 120 Vac, 300W power requirement aligns with standard electrical panels, simplifying wiring and spare-part planning, while tempered glass lens offers shatter resistance for safer outdoor operation. Overall, QA1603 combines rugged build, straightforward serviceability, and proven NEC/CEC compliance to deliver predictable ROI in demanding environments.

FAQs
QA1603 uses a standard trunnion mounting method, enabling straightforward replacement in many existing floodlight setups. Its copper-free aluminum housing and 6x6 optical distribution fit common outdoor mounting footprints, reducing the need for custom brackets. Verify panel voltage (120 Vac) and ensure a clean, dry connection to prevent moisture ingress; power wiring should follow NEC guidelines for non-hazardous locations.
The copper-free aluminum housing and tempered glass lens resist corrosion and impact, essential for coastal or splash zones. Regular inspection of the lens and mounting hardware, plus periodic electrical checks, keeps performance consistent. With IP66 protection, the unit tolerates dust and water jets, minimizing downtime; routine cleaning and seal checks are typically sufficient between service intervals.
Yes, QA1603 is designed to comply with NEC/CEC standards for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, which simplifies approvability in many industrial facilities. It carries IP66 ingress protection for durability in challenging environments and is built from copper-free aluminum to meet corrosion resistance expectations. Always confirm local code amendments and maintain proper labeling and installation documentation for compliance audits.
The 6x6 optical distribution delivers broad, uniform illumination across large outdoor zones, reducing dark spots and improving visual safety. This coverage can lower the number of fixtures required, cutting installation labor and material costs. In perimeter lighting for docks or plant yards, it also supports consistent luminance while balancing energy use and thermal performance.
When replacing the quartz-halogen lamp, ensure you select a 300W, 120 Vac variant compatible with the QA1603 model. Power down the unit, inspect the tempered glass for cracks, verify the trunnion mount is secure, and reseal as needed to maintain IP66 integrity. Regular maintenance should focus on lamp life, lens clarity, and fasteners to sustain performance and safety in outdoor environments.
