30 Watt 2 Foot Explosion Proof Linear LED Light | 4800 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V

Compact Explosion-Proof LED for Hazardous Applications

Built for environments where traditional fluorescent fixtures can't deliver reliable performance, this 2-foot linear LED fixture brings modern efficiency to Class 1 Division 2 locations. Engineered to handle demanding conditions with its fiberglass reinforced polycarbonate housing, this 30-watt unit produces 4800 lumens of bright daylight illumination while operating across a wide voltage range. What makes this fixture valuable for buyers is its ability to replace 175-watt metal halide systems while maintaining the safety certifications required in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Key Advantages

• Delivers exceptional efficiency at 160 lumens per watt with crisp 5000K color temperature
• Provides consistent performance across 100-277V input with superior power factor above 0.90
• Offers reliable 1-10V dimming capability for flexible light level control
• Ensures dependable operation in temperatures from -31°F to 131°F
• Built with impact-resistant construction rated IP66 for complete dust protection
• Maximizes lifespan by using premium LEDs rated for 150,000 hours at L70
• Reduces installation complexity with dual mounting options - pendant or trunnion

Who This Fixture Is For

• Chemical processing facilities requiring Class 1 Division 2 Group B, C, D compliance
• Paint spray booths and refinishing operations needing Class 2 Division 2 certification
• Textile manufacturing plants where fiber dust creates Class 3 hazardous conditions
• Food processing environments demanding wet location ratings and easy cleaning
• Marine applications where salt spray and moisture challenge standard fixtures
• Warehouse operators upgrading from outdated fluorescent systems in classified areas

How It Compares to Metal Halide

When upgrading from metal halide systems, this LED fixture eliminates the warm-up delays and frequent lamp replacements that plague traditional technology. By comparison, the 30-watt LED consumes 83% less energy than the 175-watt metal halide it replaces while providing immediate full brightness and consistent color temperature throughout its extended lifespan. From a cost standpoint, the combination of reduced energy consumption, eliminated re-lamping costs, and 150,000-hour rated life creates substantial operational savings over the fixture's lifetime.

Installation Considerations

In practice, this fixture's compact 24.3-inch length and 7.7-pound weight simplify installation in space-constrained hazardous locations. The universal 100-277V input eliminates voltage compatibility concerns, while the fiberglass reinforced housing withstands impacts up to IK08 rating without compromising the explosion-proof integrity. Additionally, the frosted polycarbonate lens provides uniform 120-degree light distribution while maintaining the IP66 environmental protection required in wet and dusty conditions.
