Features
Illumination: Illumination
is accomplished with
incandescent or compact
fluorescent F Series fixtures.
The F Series fixtures must be
ordered separately.
Housing: Copper-free cast
aluminum enclosure designed
to withstand the pressure
of explosions generated
by internal arc without
propagating them into the
hazardous atmosphere.

dual voltage input with
surge-protected, solid-state
circuitry provides for a reliable
charging system. HC85P uses
a temperature compensating
charger. Charging system is

disconnect, AC lockout,
brownout protection, AC
indicator lamp and test switch.
HC14N power pack operates
7 watt compact fluorescent
hazardous fixtures in both
AC and emergency modes.
HC28N, HC50N and HC85P
power units operate 6 and 12
volt incandescent hazardous
fixtures in emergency mode
only.
