Lumenox has launched LPX6 explosion proof ATEX/IECEx-approved high output LED portable floodlight
It is suitable for providing temporary portable lighting in Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22 gas and dust environments in oil and gas, petrochemical, aviation, marine, utility and other hazardous areas. Powered from either 115 or 230V AC, the light output, generated from an array of 16 high efficiency LED light engines, is 5,800 lumens at a colour temperature of 4726.85°C.
LPX6 is IP66 sealed against the ingress of water or dust, allowing it to be used in harsh environments and the operating lifetime is in excess of 75,000 hours.
A single unit is powered directly from the mains supply though an integral 0.5 metre cable, terminated in a standard ATEX plug. An ATEX approved power supply and extension cable assembly enables up to four units to be powered from a single mains socket located inside the hazardous area. The marine grade corrosion resistant aluminium housing is contained within a stainless steel frame, which allows the unit to be vertically adjusted through a wide angle to give optimum illumination as required.
