FAQs

The VMVL-3-UNV1-SS12-M3 supports universal voltage 100-277 Vac and 127-250 Vdc with a dimmable driver, enabling compatibility with a wide range of dimming controls. It ships without a mounting module, so installation typically requires a suitable mounting method suited to hazardous locations. The unit also features a sensor option with barrier board for smart control, simplifying integration into existing control architectures while maintaining compliance with NEC/IEC standards.
Key specs include 3000 lumens at an efficiency of 156 lm/W, a 21-watt power draw, and a power factor greater than 0.90. The luminaire operates at 50/60 Hz and supports 100-277 Vac or 127-250 Vdc, with Type V optics and a heat resistant glass lens. These figures translate to dependable, energy-efficient illumination with strong electrical performance in demanding environments.
Yes. VMVL is designed for Hazardous/Classified Locations with certifications including NEC/IEC compliance, IECEx/ATEX Zone 21, and Class I, Division 2, Class II, Division 2 ratings. Its IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings provide robust ingress protection and environmental sealing. The combination of dimmable control, sensor options, and Type V optics makes it well-suited for process areas, offshore facilities, and other high-risk industrial settings.
The VMVL series carries multiple certifications for hazardous environments, including Zone 21 (IECEx/ATEX), NEC/IEC compliance, and NEMA 4X with IP66. Marine and offshore suitability is supported by UL certification documentation and associated marine-related certifications referenced in Eaton’s literature, ensuring compliance with marine electrical standards and ruggedized construction for challenging environments.
Upgrade ROI comes from reduced energy use due to 21 W consumption driving 3000 lumens at 156 lm/W, plus long life and minimal maintenance due to rugged die-cast aluminum housing and glass lens. Dimmable operation and sensor integration further cut energy costs in unmanned or shift-based scenarios.
