80 Watt Round High Temperature Explosion Proof LED Light | 8000 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | Class 2 Div 2 | 5000K | 120V | Rated to 176F

Industrial Explosion Proof Lighting for High-Temperature Applications

Built for environments where extreme heat and hazardous conditions demand specialized lighting, this 80-watt round explosion proof LED fixture delivers 8000 lumens while operating safely in temperatures up to 176°F. Engineered to handle demanding conditions in petrochemical facilities, refineries, and industrial processing plants, this Class 1 Division 2 rated fixture provides reliable illumination with copper-free aluminum construction and tempered glass optics that withstand both physical impact and thermal stress.

Suitable Environments

• Petrochemical processing facilities with elevated ambient temperatures
• Oil refineries and gas processing stations requiring explosion proof ratings
• Industrial boiler rooms and steam generation facilities
• Marine environments and offshore drilling platforms
• Chemical storage areas with potential combustible dust presence
• High-heat manufacturing processes in Class I and II locations

Metal Halide Replacement Benefits

• Replaces 250-watt metal halide systems while consuming only 80 watts
• Eliminates warm-up delays with instant full brightness capability
• Reduces heat generation significantly in already high-temperature environments
• Extends maintenance intervals from frequent lamp changes to virtually maintenance-free operation
• Provides consistent 5000K color temperature without the color shift of aging metal halide
• Maintains stable light output throughout 50,000-hour lifespan without dramatic lumen depreciation

Performance & Safety

From a cost standpoint, this fixture operates at 100 lumens per watt efficiency while maintaining a power factor above 0.95, ensuring clean electrical performance that reduces energy costs and minimizes electrical system stress. The 120-degree beam angle with tempered glass lens provides wide, uniform coverage ideal for general area lighting in industrial spaces.

For facilities that require maximum safety assurance, the fixture meets comprehensive UL 844 hazardous location standards across multiple classifications, including Class I Division 2 for flammable gases and Class II Division 1 for combustible dusts. Additionally, the IP66 rating ensures complete protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets, while IK10 impact resistance protects against mechanical damage in harsh industrial environments.

Performance-wise, the extended operating temperature range from -40°F to 176°F makes this fixture suitable for extreme thermal conditions where standard LED fixtures would fail. In real-world use, the 10kV surge protection guards against electrical transients common in industrial power systems, while the copper-free aluminum housing prevents galvanic corrosion in marine and chemical environments.

Setup & Mounting

What makes this fixture valuable for buyers is the dual mounting flexibility, offering both yoke mount for wall or ceiling installation and 3/4-inch NPT pendant mounting for overhead applications. In practice, the compact 9.1 x 8.7-inch profile and 15-pound weight facilitate installation in space-constrained areas while the gray finish provides professional appearance that complements industrial environments. Compared to legacy fixtures, the 50-60Hz frequency compatibility ensures reliable operation across various power systems without additional ballast requirements.
