Appleton explosion-proof handlamp for hazardous locations

Industrial

Engineered to provide portable task-specific lighting for customers at hazardous industrial sites, Emerson’s new Appleton EHLED handlamp is compact and lightweight, allowing it to be transported and used virtually anywhere, including tight, restricted spaces

A factory sealed, explosion-proof Class I, Division 1 approved design qualifies the handlmap for oil refineries, tank inspections, fuel storage centres and other classified areas where ordinary handlamps are not permitted.

The Appleton EHLED is built tough to withstand corrosive elements and features an impact- and heat-resistant glass globe, plus is completely watertight to ensure a long service life. If hands-free operation is required, its non-sparking swivel hook can be mounted on a pipe with a diameter of up to 3/4 inches.

The EHLED is said to be lighter, stronger, and more efficient than incandescent handlamps, with a 9W LED bulb rated for enclosed spaces providing 800 lumens of light output, or the equivalent of a 60W incandescent lamp.

The LED emanates outstandingly energy-efficient soft, glare-free lighting. LED operates at significantly cooler temperatures than metal halide or HID lamps, and does not contain harmful gasses, vapours or mercury, making it safer for the workplace.
