The first steppingstone in selecting the correct light fixture is the accurate designation of the location.
Specifying the correct light fixture for an industrial project is a critical process. Areas with a probability of containing explosive gases, vapors or dusts demand special attention. Such hazardous locations use explosion proof lighting with CID1, CID2, CII or CIII certifications.
Selecting the correct certification has a major impact on project compliance and budgets.
Let's address some of the considerations that most specifiers go through.
These lights withstand exposure to harsh elements without causing an explosion. A level of protection where installed ensures the safety of the environment.
Explosion proof lighting comes in different classes to address the location's specific requirements.
These classes are crucial in determining the correct type of light for your application. Ensuring compliance with safety regulations and maintaining a safe working environment.
Safety always remains at the top of the list for critical performance criteria. For explosion proof lights, input voltage and lumen output are next on the list. Auto-ranging power supply design advancements allow operation in 120-277 VAC or 347-480 VAC environments.
Programming options offer solutions for finetuning power consumption and the subsequent lumen output. The beam profile selects the correct optics, which improves lighting quality. This choice reduces light fixture count while delivering target light levels. Nemalux offers a complimentary lighting layout and calculation service to support successful deployment.
As the last step, consider mounting hardware flexibility to address specific requirements on site. The Nemalux MR, XR, and AR offer adapters to maximize deployment opportunities. These mounts simplify project execution while minimizing luminaire types on a project.
LED lights are available with various ratings to suit different hazardous environments.
To simplify:
LED lighting is available for the classes listed above. Allowing the selection of the right fixture. Meeting specific requirements of your location while enjoying the benefits of LED technology.
