EXPLOSION PROOF LIGHTING FIXTURES IN HAZARDOUS LOCATION APPLICATIONS

QIJUN electric, we have been successfully designing, manufacturing and supplying hazardous location industrial explosion-proof lighting fixtures since 2004 years. The competitive advantage of explosion proof LED lighting includes durable copper-free aluminum frames with powdered epoxy finish, tempered glass and corrosion resistant stainless steel, with heat sink technology that dissipates thermal buildup for increased efficiency and performance. This combination of features ensures continuous operation of up to 50,000 hours in even the most intense environments.

QIJUN electric, we are proud to offer industry-leading options in industrial explosion-proof lighting fixtures. Check out our catalog for more information about our explosion-proof lighting products. If you have any questions or need help determining your unique application’s lighting needs, please contact us.

What is the meaning of Explosion Proof ?

Explosion Proof is a term used when describing protection techniques applied when designing products used in locations that have been classified as hazardous. These protections are put in place to prevent an internal spark or explosion from causing a much larger blast. The term “explosion proof” is also interchangeable with “flameproof”.

Normally, explosion proof products are used in hazardous locations to reduce risk and increase safety of workplace operations. You can find out more regarding the different hazardous locations here.

Why use explosion proof lighting?

Safety is a primary concerns in any work environment.

1. Explosion proof lighting is especially important in hazardous work areas. In confined spaces, a spark can be deadly. Flammable substances—such as volatile vapors, fibers, or certain types of dust—can ignite should they come into contact with the smallest ignition source.
2. Explosion proof lighting is resistant to these substances, but if they do enter the fixture and ignite, the reaction is fully contained. By preventing the explosion from spreading to ambient flammable material, these fixtures keep a minor problem from becoming a disaster. In this way, they protect the workers and the environment.

Explosion-proof lighting is critical in environments where volatile flammable liquids or flammable gases and vapors are present.

This LED explosion-proof light is safe to use in Class 1, Div 2 locations, such as oil refineries, paint booths, fuel and chemical storage areas, and grain processing plants. The waterproof flood light has a vibration resistant die cast aluminum housing and tempered glass lens to protect internal components and is designed to last.
