KEMP, Texas, April 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Industrial lighting leader, Larson Electronics LLC, announced the release of a Class I Division 2 explosion proof 50 Hz emergency lighting unit that features a sealed lead acid battery backup and dual halogen lamp heads. This 16W emergency lighting unit is designed to withstand harsh conditions within hazardous locations such as extraction rooms, chemical plants and warehouses.
