Industrial lighting specialists Larson Electronics reveals their newly designed Class 1 Division 1 explosion proof LED string lights. These string lights are ideal for general close work and inspection activities in hazardous locations requiring explosion proof protection.
The EPL-SL-10-LED explosion proof string light set contains a total of ten work lights that are equipped with aluminum hooks and connected in series along 100’ of 14/3 SOOW explosion proof cord. Each hand lamp is equipped with a 10 watt LED bulb that produces 830 lumens of light, generating a total of 8300 lumens. Designed to operate on 120-277V AC, these lamps provide higher efficiency than traditional incandescent A19 bulbs. The machined aluminum housings, cast aluminum guard, and abrasion resistant cord make this a very durable unit that will resist damage from chemicals, abrasions, vibrations and impacts.
A molded T junction is mounted every 10’, with 3’ of 16/3 SOOW cord connecting a single drop light to the backbone. The cord on this unit is terminated with a 1523 explosion proof plug for complete protection. With this arrangement, each drop light will not spark if pulled apart or dragged. A 25’ tail section of main SOOW cord is included to allow ample length for connection to power sources. The hand lamps can be moved around and hooked to different points on a scaffold, but must remain within 10’ of one another. This string lighting solution will provide the lighting required in a flexible, easy to manage configuration.
“We have redesigned these hand lamps by using a molded T connector to connect each hand lamp instead of an aluminum junction box,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larsonelectronics.com. “With this improvement, it has made our hand lamps lighter in weight and easier to manage.”
