Application Solution

Chemical Plant and Hazardous Area Lighting Solution

Explosion-proof lighting solution for chemical plants, hazardous storage, coating and dust-risk areas, covering classification, temperature class, emergency and maintenance.

Hazardous lighting starts with area classification before wattage or form factor. Medium, zone, temperature class and mounting location change fixture and wiring requirements.

Separate general, local task, emergency egress and maintenance lighting, and verify required markings and documentation.
