FAQs
VP42170 is designed for through-feed wiring with two NPT hubs and a 1/2 inch entry. For installation, route supply conductors through the hubs, maintain correct spacing for the 49.81 inch length, and connect to a single 120-277 Vac supply. The design supports quick field wiring, minimizes the need for additional junction boxes, and simplifies daisy-chaining across sections of a facility.
Yes. VP42170 is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards. It also carries a NEMA 3R rating, providing rugged protection suitable for indoor and some outdoor-adjacent environments. These certifications help facilities meet regulatory requirements, simplify inspections, and reduce risk when upgrading general lighting across production floors and warehouses.
VP42170 operates at 120-277 Vac and 50/60 Hz, with a 32W rating and two 4 ft fluorescent lamps using T8 bi-pin bases. The unit is a 2-lamp, 4 ft fixture with an acrylic lens and a fiberglass-reinforced polyester housing, designed for durable, long-life operation in industrial settings while delivering consistent lumen output.
The VP42170 offers energy-efficient 32W performance, a rugged housing, and a through-feed wiring configuration that speeds installation. Its 4 ft, 2-lamp design provides broad illumination for work surfaces, while the acrylic lens resists impact and is easy to maintain. Combined with NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA 3R protection, it supports reliable uptime and a favorable ROI for facility upgrades.
To maximize ROI, schedule regular cleaning of the acrylic lens to maintain light output, monitor lamp life for timely replacements, and keep the through-feed connections secure to prevent voltage drop. The fixture’s rugged housing and long service life reduce replacement frequency, while the 120-277 Vac universal input simplifies stocking and maintenance across multi-site operations.
