Flameproof Bulk Head Family 20W - 60W
Key Description & Purpose
This is a flame-proof / explosion-proof LED bulk-head luminaire designed for hazardous / industrial environments (gas, dust, petrochemical, chemical, LPG, mining, cement, steel, etc.).
Its build is heavy-duty, with an aluminium die-cast enclosure and integrated heat-sink to ensure durability, heat dissipation, and long-term dependable operation.
It is certified safe for explosive/hazard-prone zones: certifications like CIMFR, PESO and BIS, suitable for gas groups IIA, IIB, IIC and for hazardous area classifications “Zone 1 & 2”.
Technical Specifications
| Parameter | Value / Range |
|---|---|
| Wattage options | 20 W, 30 W, 45 W, up to 60 W depending on model variant. |
| Input voltage / supply | 220–240 V AC (some variants support 90–305 V AC, 50/60 Hz). |
| Ingress protection | IP66 — dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets. |
| Optics / Light output | Uses toughened glass + internal lens / diffuser; high optical transmission (~85%); good colour rendering (CRI > 70 / approx. CRI 80 in some versions) for clear visibility. |
| Colour temperature (CCT) options | Common CCT choices: 6500 K (cool white). Some references mention 5000 K or 3000 K variants as well. |
| Beam / Light distribution | Diffused light distribution; some variants > 160° beam angle for wide coverage. |
| LED driver / Electrical characteristics | Power factor (PF) > 0.95, THD < 10%; protections for short/open circuit, under-/over-voltage. |
| Operating ambient / Temperature class | Suitable across typical industrial ambient conditions (some variants rated for -10 °C to ~50 °C). Temperature class T6 (suitable for hazardous gas/dust environments). |
| Mounting & Installation | Options like pendent with C-clamp or eye-bolt; cable entry via M20 glands (typically 2 entries) for safe wiring. |
Suitable Applications / Use-Cases
Because of its flame-proof construction, high IP rating and industrial-grade design, this light is ideal for:
Oil & gas facilities, refineries, petrochemical plants.
Chemical plants, fertilizer factories, paint or pharma industries.
Cement, steel, mining sites, heavy-duty industrial units.
LPG bottling / storage areas, hazardous-area warehouses or processing units where explosion risk exists.
Advantages / Strengths
Durable construction — die-cast aluminium housing + integrated heat-sink ⇒ long life and reliability.
Safety certified for hazardous zones (gas/dust) — ensures compliance with industrial safety norms.
High IP66 protection — resistant to dust ingress and water — suitable even for tough industrial or outdoor conditions.
Good illumination performance (wide beam, good CRI, diffused light) — suitable for general lighting / area lighting in industrial premises.
Relatively flexible wattage and mounting options — can adapt to different space requirements (small corridor, large hall, external wall, etc.).
