The Larson Electronics EPL-HB-50LED-RT Explosion Proof High Bay light fixture provides operators with a powerful and energy
efficient alternative to traditional hazardous location luminaries. LED technology and compact design makes this lamp an excellent
replacement upgrade option for bulky and high maintenance cost older incandescent, metal halide and high pressure sodium lights.
This Class I Division 1 & 2, Class II Division 1 & 2 explosion proof light fixture provides 4,333 lumens of high quality light while drawing only 50
watts. The copper free aluminum alloy body is powder coated for added durability and an attractive aesthetic appearance. Special heat
dissipating design in conjunction with LED technology helps this fixture to achieve an excellent 60,000 hour rated lifespan with 80% lumen
retention. Light weight and a low profile make this unit an attractive alternative to larger and heavier older fixtures and requires less hardware to
install. The EPL-HB50LED-RT explosion proof high bay LED light also offers operators convenience in the form of field serviceability.
LED Benefits: Unlike gas burning and arc type lamps that have glass bulbs, LEDs have no filaments or fragile housings to break during
operation and/or transportation. Instead of heating a small filament or using a combination of gases to produce light, light emitting diodes (LEDs)
use semi-conductive materials that illuminate when electric current is applied, providing instant illumination with no warm up or cool down time
before re-striking. Because there is no warm up period, this light can be cycled on and off with no reduction in lamp life.
LED lights run at significantly cooler temperatures than traditional metal halide and high pressure sodium lights and contain no harmful gases,
vapors, or mercury, making them both safer and more energy efficient. No extra energy is wasted in cooling enclosed work areas due to external
heat emissions from bulb type lights, and the operator risks associated with traditional lighting methods, such as accidental burns and exposure
to hazardous substances contained in the glass bulbs, are eliminated. In addition, LEDs are also safer for the environment as they are 100%
recyclable, which eliminates the need for costly special disposal services required with traditional gas burning and arc type lamps.
LED Drivers: Even in LED fixtures, heat is the single largest factor in premature light failure and color shifting. As a result, many manufacturers
reduce the output of their LEDs in order to reduce the amount of heat produced. Rather than lower light output or quality, Larson Electronics
addresses this problem with the addition of an electronic LED driver. This internal driver provides the ability to automatically monitor and adjust
input current to maintain the correct LED voltage levels regardless of input levels across a specific range. This not only reduces the energy
dissipation, effectively lowering the operating temperature of the fixture, but also prevents AC over-voltage and short circuit loading making this
fixture virtually maintenance free. Because the electronic driver allows the EPL-HB-50LED-RT to run at a cooler internal temperature and
regulates the electrical current, energy efficiency and LED service hours are maximized while at the same time reducing operating costs and
downtime incurred from the frequent servicing intervals required with other hotter running lights.
This light is universal voltage capable and can be operated with 100-277 VAC, 50/60Hz. We also offer a low voltage version of this LED fixture
that operates on AC/DC voltages from 11-25 Volts. This explosion proof LED light fixture is IP67 rated, dust-proof, and protected against high
pressure jets and temporary submersion. The cast aluminum body and LED lamp give this light excellent durability and resistance to vibration
and impacts. The housing is specially designed to dissipate heat which increases the efficiency and lifespan of the LEDs and electronics.
Wiring: The EPL-HB-50LED-RT explosion proof high bay LED light fixture is equipped with 10 feet of abrasion and chemical resistant 16/3
SOOW cable with flying leads. The LED light fixture features 5 3/4" NPT threaded ports for running conduit depending on the installation location.
Four of the ports are located on the corners of the unit and the fifth port is found on the rear of the explosion proof high bay LED fixture.
