KEMP, Texas, June 11, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leader in industrial lighting, Larson Electronics LLC, has announced the release of a new hazardous area LED light that is U.S./Canada U.L. approved Class 1 Division 2 Groups A, B, C and D, UL 1598A listed, specifically designed for wet and corrosive marine environments. This United States Coast Guard approved LED features a diffused lens for reduced glare, suitable for low mounting applications in oil rigs, ships, chemical storage centers and offshore locations.
The HALP-48-2L-LED-BMSW-G2-OPQ hazardous area LED light fixture from Larson Electronics is a 56 watt, four-foot-long, two lamp LED fixture with a diffused lens that produces 6,720 lumens of top quality hazardous location light in a 150-degree beam, that will reduce operating costs, improve light quality and reduce frequent servicing interval downtime. The lamp has a 50,000-hour rated lifespan with a T4 operating temperature rating and a UL 1598A outdoor marine rating that meets US Coast Guard specifications.
The HALP-48-2L-LED-BMSW-G2-OPQ hazardous area LED light fixture is designed for use in wet areas and saltwater-marine environments where corrosion resistance is critical to equipment longevity and safety. The fixture housing is constructed of copper-free sheet aluminum, powder coated for extra durability. The special opaque lens diffuses light, minimizing light glare allowing this fixture to be mounting at low heights without harming operator’s eyes or obstructing their view of the work area.
The two LED T-Style lamps have no filaments or fragile housings to break during operation and have no warm-up or cool-down time, so illumination will be instantaneous. This 2-lamp hazardous location LED has a standard back mount with a swivel back allowing the light to be pivoted 45 degrees.
“This LED fixture has a special opaque lens which diffuses the bright light to a softer glow easier on the eyes,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “This allows the fixture to be mounted at lower heights – useful for marine applications, processing plants, tankers and other locations with little headroom to work with.”
