Explosion protected floodlights withstand Arctic conditions

Cooper Crouse-Hinds has launched a robust range of explosion protected Ex-floodlights for high pressure sodium and halide discharge lamps installed in extreme environments with ambient temperatures from -55C to +55C.

The FLT 10 series of Ex-floodlights from Cooper Crouse-Hinds is based on the company's proven PX 04 series of Ex-floodlights, but has a redesigned flameproof enclosure that extends the permissible ambient temperature range down to -55C. The FLT 10 is suitable for Zone 1 and 21 hazardous gas environments, as well as Zones 2 and 22 hazardous dust environments in accordance with European ATEX Directive 94/4/EC. The floodlights are protected to IP66 and are suitable for illuminating large areas or objects within a wide range of harsh industrial environments including chemical and petrochemical processing plants, onshore and offshore oil and gas platforms, pipelines, refineries and loading plants located in Arctic regions.

Key features:
  • New polished aluminium wide-angle or narrow-angle reflector to optimise illumination
  • Housing of the light fitting is made from copper-free aluminium
  • Protective cover made from a mechanical, thermally-resistant borosilicate glass
  • All external captive screws are made from stainless steel
  • Components are thermically separated in their own compartments and have a separate Ex-e, maintenance-friendly connection
  • Further protected with a pulse igniter with automatic cut-off and a ballast with a thermal fuse
  • Supplied with an adjustable mounting frame, which enables optimum illumination an light guidance
