The Larson Electronics EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED-2XW Explosion Proof LED Light Fixture w/ Emergency Battery Backup is NRTL Listed for United States and Canada and rated Class I Divisions 1 & 2 and Class II Divisions 1 and 2 for areas where flammable chemical/petrochemical vapors exist or have the potential to exist. Designed for total illumination control, this 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 fixture includes an emergency power backup providing 90 minutes of runtime from one lamp in the event of power failure.

This four foot, two lamp 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-2XW 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.

Designed for total illumination control, the LED lamps can be controlled individually to suit the needs of operations in the hazardous location. An example of such configuration includes integration with the Larson Electronics explosion proof motion sensor (EXP-MS-N4X-AT-HV), which would enable one level of illumination (single lamp) when there are no ongoing operations in the area. When the explosion proof motion sensor is triggered by local activity, the second lamp is activated, resulting in full illumination coming from both LED lamps.

Another configuration could incorporate the Larson Electronics explosion proof photocell (EXP-PHOTOCELL). Recommended for use with skylights, the setup would enable one level of illumination (single lamp) when only supplementary lighting is needed. When ambient light drops below a certain level, the explosion proof photocell is triggered, activating the second LED lamp for more illumination. In both examples, businesses may benefit from energy savings and hands-off operation.

We now offer our second generation LED tube lamps with this fixture which have increased this hazardous location lightÕs 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 isÊover twice as long as standard T8 bulbs.

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.ÊClick here to read the NEC description for explosion proof and hazardous locations.

We have eliminated the ballast box normally associated with explosion proof fluorescent fixtures which reduces overall weight and overall complexity of installation. There is no ballast in this unit and 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 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-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-2XW is universal voltage, not multi-tap, and operates on any voltage from 120V to 277V AC 50/60hz without any modifications.

Emergency Operation: This LED light works, mounts and is wired like our EPL-48-2L-LED-2XW hazardous location LED light fixtures. The main difference is that we attach an extra Bodine ballast box to the unit that adds the emergency light functionality to the fixture. This explosion proof emergency light will run the standard 90 minutes after power is lost. The light recharges the battery once standard electrical power is restored. Standard configuration includes a single emergency ballast that will run a single lamp at 900 lumens for 90 minutes.

Our EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED-2XW LED light fixture is NRTL Listed for United States and Canada and 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.


Surface Mount (Standard)

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.


Pendant Mount (Optional)

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 1/2Ó 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 fixtureÕs lead wires, completing the electrical connection. The adjustable L-shape mounting bracket provides support for the opposite end of the fixture.

Suggested Applications: Paint spray booths, aircraft maintenance, oil drilling rigs, refineries, solvent and cleaning areas, gas processing plants, chemical manufacturing, waste treatment plants, gas processing plants.
