The EPL-QC-16C-1X150LED-RT-100 explosion proof portable tank light from Larson Electronics produces 17,500 lumens of light while drawing only 150 watts. This wheelbarrow cart mounted explosion proof LED light provides 10,000 square feet of work area coverage. Varying beam angles are offered - individually ideal for specific environments. A 60° beam is perfect for narrow, confined spaces, while the 125° beam offers a diffused light source less intense in brightness, ideal for general area work. The 140° beam is more ideal for proximity work where illumination of a wider area and even light distribution is a concern.

This explosion proof LED tank light is comprised of an adjustable LED light head mounted atop a wheelbarrow style cart fabricated from non-sparking powder coated aluminum and includes solid wheels allowing the operator to tilt the unit up and simply roll the entire assembly to a new location. This explosion proof LED light cart features a removable 16-inch LED light head mounted atop a solid rubber wheeled cart fabricated from non-sparking aluminum.

Included with this LED light cart is 100 feet of 16/3 chemical and abrasion resistant SOOW cord terminated in an explosion proof cord cap. The EPL-QC-16C-1X150LED-RT-100 is IP67 rated, dust-proof, and protected against high pressure jets and temporary submersion. The cast aluminum body has excellent durability and resistance to vibration and impacts. The LED assembly is universal voltage capable and can be operated with 100-277 VAC, 50/60Hz.

“The wheelbarrow cart mount on this LED tank light allows users to easily maneuver the unit around workspaces,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “Because the light head is removable, the unit can be taken apart and transferred through manholes, then reassembled once inside. Additionally, this unit is part of the quick change mounting series, meaning the lamp head can be used with the entire range of QC mounting solutions.”
