Larson Electronics LLC has announced the release of its explosion proof high bay light fixture that provides operators with a powerful and energy efficient alternative to traditional hazardous location luminaries.

The Class 1 Division 2, Class 2 Division 1 & 2 fixture provides 37,500 lumens of high quality light while drawing only 450 watts. The copper-free aluminum alloy body is powder coated for added durability and aesthetics. A special heat dissipating design in conjunction with LED technology helps this fixture to achieve 60,000 hour rated lifespan with 80 percent lumen retention.

It features multiple LED drivers, which help to increase the operational life of the fixture. With traditional LED lights, in the event an LED array or driver fails, the entire fixture no longer illuminates. The EPLC2-HB-3X150LED-RT explosion proof high bay LED fixture contains 36 individual LED boards configured in a series of banks. Each bank contains two LED boards with an individual driver. In the event of a driver failure, only one bank of LEDs will be affected while the other banks will continue to operate. In the event that of an LED failure, the mating LED will continue to operate.

Recommended for use in hazardous environments and paint spray booths, it is lightweight, versatile and maintenance free.
