This 2-foot-long, 2 lamp fixture operates on 120-277VAC producing 3,500 lumens at 28 watts, and is ideal for aircraft maintenance, oil drilling rigs, refineries and chemical manufacturing facilities.

The HAL-24-2L-LED-BMSW-BL is an explosion proof LED light fixture that includes two 14-watt lamps that produce a total of 3,500 lumens. This Class 1 Division 2 Groups A, B, C and D hazardous area LED light that takes the reliability and efficiency of a fluorescent fixture and adds even longer lamp life and efficiency with high output LEDs. The ballast normally associated with fluorescent fixtures has been eliminated from this unit, which reduces overall weight, increases lamp life to an extreme 50,000 hours and helps this LED fixture maintain a T4A temperature rating.

The lamps are protected by a powder coated aluminum frame and shatter and heat resistant clear glass lens secured with four zinc coated steel draw latches. The HAL-24-2L-LED-BMSW-BL is multi-voltage capable and works on the following 120 Volt 60 HZ, 220 Volt 50 HZ, 240 Volt 60 HZ, 277 Volts 60 HZ. A 12-24V DC version for low voltage applications is also available. This light fixture is both U.S. and Canada U.L. approved and features a pivoting surface mount bracket allowing the fixture to pivot 45 degrees.
