Explosion Proof Emergency LED light - 4 foot 2 lamp - Backup Ballast - Class 1 & 2 LED Light

Part #: EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED

Made in the USA

The Larson Electronics EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED Explosion Proof Emergency LED Light Fixture is United States and Canada approved
Class 1 Division 1 & 2 and Class 2 Division 1 and 2 for areas where flammable chemical/petrochemical vapors exist or have the
potential to exist. This failsafe explosion proof LED light has a T6 temperature rating and carries a paint spray booth light certification,
making it ideal for applications such as paint booths, oil rigs, offshore applications, petrochemical, manufacturing, chemical storage,
water treatment centers, and food processing plants.

This four foot, two lamp emergency LED fixture is ideal for operators seeking a top quality explosion proof light that will reduce operating costs,
improve lighting quality and reduce downtime incurred from frequent servicing intervals. The EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED is equipped with Larson
Electronics’ specially designed LED T-series bulbs which produce 7,000 lumens, resulting in 30% more foot candles of illumination at 8 feet as
compared to standard T8 lamps when measured with an Extech light meter. Our LED-T series bulbs are visibly brighter than standard T8's and
have consistently surprised many of our customers with their unexpectedly high light output levels.
We now offer our second generation LED tube lamps with this fixture which have increased this hazardous location light’s performance. This two
lamp explosion proof LED linear fixture is lighter in weight, has a slimmer profile, and produces more light than traditional explosion proof
fluorescent fixtures. The four foot long LED tube design bulbs included with this unit are rated at 50,000 hours of service life, which is over twice
as long as standard T8 bulbs.
This emergency backup only fluorescent light works, mounts and is wired like our EPL-48-2L-LED explosion proof integrated LED light fixtures.
The main difference is that we add a battery backup unit that adds emergency light functionality to the fixture. With an integrated emergency
ballast, this explosion proof LED light will continue to operate one LED lamp for 90 minutes at 3,500 lumens after the main electrical power to the
light is severed. Once standard electrical power is restored, the emergency battery pack will be recharged. The battery backup unit includes a
switched leg for turning the light fixture on/off without kicking the unit into emergency mode.
This fixture carries a T6 temperature rating and is approved for Class I Division 1, Groups C and D, Class I, Division 2, Group A, B, C and D, and
Class II, Division 1 and 2, Groups E, F and G environments where flammable or combustible gases, vapors, dusts, fibers, and flying exist or
stand the potential to exist. This LED linear fixture is approved for use in confined spaces. Click here to read the NEC description for explosion
proof and hazardous locations.

The included LEDT8-28W-V1 LED lamps have a 50,000+ hour service life, both of which result in extreme efficiency and greatly reduced
maintenance costs. These fluorescent style LED lamps have internal drivers, eliminating external power components. The solid state design of
the LED lamps give this fixture superior resistance to damage from vibration, extremes in temperature and a lamp service life over twice that of
standard fluorescent bulbs. This second generation lamp is offered in 5600K cool white, 4500K natural white, and 3000K warm white. Our
standard unit ships with 5600K unless different color temperature is specified.
Unlike the glass tube design of traditional fluorescent lamps, these LED T-Style lamps have no filaments or fragile housings to break during
operation. Instead of using a combination of gases to produce light, light emitting diodes (LEDs) use semi-conductive materials that illuminate
when electric current applied and emitting light. The LED assembly is mounted to the "tube" constructed from extruded aluminum, with a
polycarbonate lens protecting the LEDs. With LED lights, there is no warm up time or cool down time before re-striking and provide instant
illumination when powered on, adding to the reliability of LED technology. By nature, LED light sources run significantly cooler than fluorescent
lamps, reducing the chance of accidental burns and increased temperatures due to heat emissions. This solid state design of light emitting
diodes provides a more reliable, stable, durable, and energy efficient light source over traditional fluorescent lighting.
The 28 watt LED lamps produce 30% more illumination than standard T8 bulbs while offering lower amp draw and increased reliability. Each
lamp produces 3,500 lumens at 125 lumens per watt, for a combined 7,000 total lumen light output. An EPL-EMG-48-2L-T8 explosion proof
fluorescent light, with a combined total of 64 watts, draws 0.54 amps at 120 volts AC. This LED version of the same light, with a total of 56 watts,
draws only 0.47 amps at 120 volts AC. The EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED is universal voltage, not multi-tap, and operates on any voltage from 120V to
277V AC 50/60hz without any modifications. We also make a 12/24V AC/DC version for low voltage applications for AC or DC power.

Our EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED LED light fixture is U.S. and Canada approved for use in paint spray booths. Please note, according to the NEC, using
threaded rigid pipe does not require additional seal offs with this fixture. An EYM and seal off is necessary for flex conduit or other non-rigid pipe
implementations.
Mounting Options: Unless otherwise specified, our standard, most popular configuration is the bracket end mounting shown enlarged below.
We also offer a pendant mount for those needing to suspend the fixture away from the ceiling surface (i.e. suspend from pipe or conduit).
Additional mounting configurations can be customized to meet the requirements on the application. Please contact us for special mounting
configurations.
Adjustable Surface Mount Brackets: Each bracket is cinched to the bracket mounting peg on each side of the light. The angle of the bracket is
set by tightening two cap screws on either side of the bracket. The cap screws act as a set screw. The bracket itself is mounted via a single bolt
hole at the top the bracket. There are two brackets, one on each end of the light. Once the brackets are mounted to a surface (ceiling, floor or
wall), the light fixture can be removed from the brackets by loosening the cap screws that hold the bracket to the mounting peg.
Suspension Mounting: Pendant mount fixtures hang from the ceiling and are suspended by rigid pipe. Each fixture features a 1/2” NPT junction
box on one end, and a 1/2” NPT adjustable L-bracket on the other end of the fixture. Operators bring rigid pipe down to the threaded mounting
hubs. Wiring is fed down through the rigid pipe to the junction box and tied in to the fixture’s lead wires, completing the electrical connection. The
adjustable L-shape mounting bracket provides support for the opposite end of the fixture.
