KEMP, Texas, May 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leader in industrial lighting, Larson Electronics LLC, has announced the release of an explosion proof LED light fixture that features an EYS sealoff and an inline dimmer, approved for hazardous locations where flammable chemical and petrochemical vapors may exist. This explosion proof fixture has a t6 temperature rating and carries a paint spray booth certification, making it ideal for oil rigs, chemical storage, water treatment plants, food processing and other manufacturing.

The EPL-24-2L-LED-D-EYS-25C-IDL-25C-EPP explosion proof LED light fixture from Larson Electronics is a two-foot, two lamp, 22-watt LED fixture that produces 3,500 lumens of top quality hazardous location light that will reduce operating costs, improve light quality and reduce frequent servicing interval downtime. This hazardous area fluorescent LED fixture is equipped with Larson Electronics' specially designed LED T-series bulbs which result in 30% more foot candles of illumination at 8 feet as compared to standard T8 lamps when measured with an Extech light meter. This second-generation lamp is offered in 5600K cool white, 4500K natural white and 3000K warm white. The EPL-24-2L-LED-D-EYS-25C-IDL-25C-EPP is universal voltage, not multi-tap, and operates on any voltage from 120V to 277V AC 50/60hz without any modifications.

The EPL-24-2L-LED-D-EYS-25C-IDL-25C-EPP also features an EYS sealoff along with an inline dimmer switch and explosion proof cord cap. The dimmer switch is located in the center of the unit's 50' of 16/3 SOOW cable. Mounting options include an adjustable surface mount which allows operators to reposition the light fixture without removing the mount brackets, and suspension mounting, which allows the unit to be hung from the ceiling.

“This unit is perfect for use in marine environments,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “It holds both UL 595 and UL 1598 marine certifications, along with an ip67 waterproof rating and is factory sealed. This unit is compact and versatile, and the inline dimmer switch allows operators to adjust brightness as external lighting factors change which helps save costs and makes working conditions more comfortable.”
