Feature → High lumen output and efficiency: VMVL delivers 7000 lumens at 156 lm/W, enabling broad, uniform illumination with fewer fixtures and lower energy use. This translates to cost savings on power and maintenance in large manufacturing spaces. Application: warehouses and production floors where coverage and reliability matter.Feature → Universal voltage and dimmable driver: The 100-277 VAC / 127-250 VDC input and dimmable driver simplify wiring and control integration, reducing inventory variety and installation time. Business impact: faster commissioning, compatibility with existing controls, and optimized energy management across multiple sites. Application: facilities with mixed power systems or evolving control strategies.Feature → Robust hazardous-location protection: NEC/CEC/IEC compliance with Class I Division 2, Zone 2, Zone 21 ratings, plus IP66 and NEMA 4X protection, ensure safe operation in dust, water, and corrosive environments. Business impact: lowers risk, accelerates regulatory approvals, and extends service life in refineries and chemical plants. Application: harsh environments where uptime matters.Feature → Type V optics and durable lens: Type V distribution coupled with heat and impact resistant glass yields precise, wide-area illumination while resisting vibration and shattering. Business impact: improved light quality, reduced glare, and fewer re-lamping events. Application: open halls, loading docks, and outdoor-adjacent industrial spaces.Feature → Sensor with barrier board: Integrated sensor capability supports occupancy-based lighting, reducing energy usage without compromising safety. Business impact: measurable ROI through reduced consumption and smarter maintenance planning. Application: warehouses, staging areas, and production lines with variable activity.Feature → Simple installation and rugged housing: Die-cast aluminum housing with no mounting module required streamlines installation and enhances thermal management. Business impact: faster project delivery, lower installation costs, and long-term reliability in tough environments. Application: new builds and retrofits in hazardous facilities.

FAQs

Yes. The VMVL-7-UNV1-SS12-M3 supports universal input of 100-277 VAC and 127-250 VDC, enabling flexible installation across facilities with varying power schemes. It uses a dimmable driver and maintains a power factor above 0.90, which helps simplify control integration and optimize energy use while meeting hazardous-location requirements.
The VMVL is designed for hazardous environments and carries NEC/CEC/IEC compliance with Class I Division 2, Zone 2, and Zone 21 ratings (IECEx/ATEX). It also offers IP66 protection and a NEMA 4X enclosure, making it suitable for dusty, wet, and corrosive industrial settings such as refineries and chemical plants.
The dimmable driver enables partial-lighting during low-activity periods or when daylight harvesting is possible, reducing energy consumption without compromising safety. When paired with occupancy sensors or building controls, it delivers substantial energy savings, lowers operating costs, and extends luminaire life by reducing thermal stress during periods of reduced output.
Yes. The Type V optical distribution provides efficient long-range coverage with uniform brightness, while the heat and impact resistant glass lens protects the optic system in harsh environments. The die-cast aluminum housing offers superior thermal management, and the product’s mounting method requires no dedicated mounting module, simplifying installation and enabling quicker retrofits.
LED technology in the VMVL delivers extended service life and reduced maintenance compared with legacy luminaires, especially under harsh conditions. Coupled with high protection ratings (IP66/NEMA 4X) and robust certifications, facilities typically realize lower downtime and maintenance costs, resulting in faster payback when replacing older lighting with a 50 W, 7000 lm VMVL unit.
