Equipped with two, 4-foot T8 fluorescent lamps, this emergency 72-watt fixture is compatible with 220V AC, 50 Hz.


The ATEX-HALP-EMG-48-2L-T8-2X36W-R1-220V flameproof fluorescent emergency linear offers 6,200 lumens of light output in a flood beam configuration with a CRI rating of 75 and color temperature options of 5000K, 4100K or 2700K. This T4 temperature-rated unit can be used in places with ambient temperature ratings between -25˚C and +40˚C and has a lamp lifespan of 20,000+ hours.

This light also acts as an emergency fixture with the help of a battery backup. An electric inverter keeps one of the lamps in operation for 90 minutes at 3,100 lumens in a power outage situation. Once power to the unit is restored the emergency battery pack will recharge itself, which takes roughly 24 hours if completely drained. Three LED status lights in red, green and yellow are located on the fixture for status monitoring of the emergency mode.

The ATEX-HALP-EMG-48-2L-T8-2X36W-R1-220V explosion proof fluorescent light fixture features L1, L2, L, N and two PE terminals for completing electrical connections. This light has two, 1.5” (M25) molded plastic/polyamide stopping plugs and a central locking system to protect the internal components. This fixture also features an electronic, internal ballast and two interlock switches that disconnect all poles to the ballast and inverter, as well as turn the power off when the diffuser is open.

This unit is compatible with various mounting configurations, including ceiling, pendant, chain hanging, angle bracket, pole clamp oil derrick and pole top (no mounts included), making it extremely versatile. This flameproof light is suitable for paint spray booths, aircraft maintenance, oil drilling rigs, refineries, solvent and cleaning areas, gas processing plants, chemical manufacturing, waste water treatment plants, offshore applications and more.
