KEMP, Texas, Oct. 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Industrial lighting leader, Larson Electronics LLC, has released an emergency explosion proof LED paint spray booth light fixture that provides operators in hazardous environments powerful, energy efficient illumination, that features a 90-minute emergency backup battery. This four-foot two-lamp fixture operates on 125V DC and is rated for Class I Division 1 &2 and Class II Division 1 & 2 areas, and holds a paint spray booth certification, making it ideal for paint booths, oil rigs, offshore applications, petrochemical, manufacturing, chemical storage and more.
The EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED-125VDC from Larson electronics is an emergency LED light United States and Canada approved Class 1 Division 1 & 2 and Class 2 Division 1 and 2 for areas where flammable chemical/petrochemical vapors exist or have the potential to. This LED two-lamp fixture provides 7,000 lumens of high-quality light drawing just 56 watts. This two-lamp explosion proof LED linear fixture is lighter in weight, has a slimmer profile, and produces more light than traditional explosion proof fluorescent fixtures. The four-foot-long T6 LED tube design bulbs included with this unit are rated at 50,000 hours of service life, which is over twice as long as standard T8 bulbs. This LED produces a 150º degree beam spread and has a standard 5600K cool white color temperature to produce colors and details more accurately than traditional luminaries.
This explosion proof fixture has an integrated emergency ballast which continues to run one of the two lamps or 90 minutes at 3,500 lumens. Once regular power is restored the battery recharges itself.
This lightweight low-profile explosion proof LED is compact and built with extruded aluminum. The fixture is Marine approved and NEMA 4X and IP67 rated, making it dust-proof and protected against high pressure jets and temporary submersion, as well as resistant to vibration and impacts. The EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED-125VDC is offered with suspension pendant mounting or surface mounting options. This light operates on 125V DC.
“This LED fixture provides reliable, durable and safe power to hazardous locations, with maximum efficiency due to the third generation LEDs, and emergency backup,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “The emergency battery ensures this light will continue to run at half capacity in power outage situations.”
