Hazardous Location Lighting
Hazardous location lighting fixtures are designed to provide safe, dependable illumination in environments with flammable gases, vapors, dust, or other explosive risks. Such light fixtures are often found in oil and gas refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations, and they are built to withstand the kinds of extreme conditions those industrial settings can present. Quite often, hazardous area lighting offer explosion-proof construction. That means they contain any potential ignition source within a durable enclosure that minimizes the risk of starting an explosion.
Explosion-proof lighting fixtures are designed to work safely in the kinds of hazardous environments that have flammable gases, vapors, or dust. In the event of an explosion, the hazard presented by an open flame or hot burning materials is contained within the light fixture not allowing it to spread into the surrounding atmosphere. The explosion-proof fixtures are made from materials like stainless steel or aluminum, and are resistant to the harsh environmental conditions that are commonly found in these hazardous locations, including moisture, dust, and corrosive substances. Explosion-proof LED lights can provide bright, energy-efficient lighting while doing the same job a rough service or vapor-tight incandescent or fluorescent fixture would do.
