Enclosure Lighting

Enclosure lighting is often necessary when overhead room lighting is inadequate and often obstructed by the enclosure itself. Enclosure lights can help to properly illuminate dim areas within the enclosure for maintenance, monitoring and component installation. 

LED enclosure lights offer a more efficient and better quality light than fluorescent lamps. Using LED lights can help to protect the reliability of components inside the enclosure, because they do not include ultraviolet (UV) or infrared (IR) light. UV light can discolor and weaken plastics and IR light can interfere with communication. LED lamps offer a wide dispersion angle, fully lighting all the equipment inside of an enclosure, and can be directional if needed. It is important to make sure that the LED lights can be mounted out of the way of working areas. Many LED lights have the option to mount with magnets, mount to a din rail or mount to the enclosure frame.

Hazardous location lights provide enclosure lighting in hazardous environments. The lights are rated to operate in Class 1, Division 2 hazardous areas. Class 1 refers to facilities that deal with flammable gases, vapors and liquids. Division 2 specifies that the flammable materials are processed, used or handled in the defined hazardous location, but are not normally present in concentrations high enough to be ignitable. 

Machine LED lights have a very narrow design, which allows them to be installed into machines that have very little space. The light holder can swivel for directional lighting. Machine LED lights are also designed for harsh environments, with shock and vibration resistance and resistance to lubricants and cooling agents.
