Magnalight Introduces Explosion Proof Work Light

Long time manufacturer and distributor of high grade industrial lighting equipment Larson Electronics announced today the addition of the EPL-50-120×12-EHR incandescent work light to its line of explosion proof and hazardous location drop lights.The EPL-50-120×12-EHR incandescent work light produces an effective spotlight beam that is valuable for jobs requiring the ability to project illumination across significant distances in the hazardous workplace. Ruggedly constructed and approved for Class 1 Division 1 hazardous locations, this work light is paired with a cord reel holding 50 feet of explosion proof cord for convenient and trouble free operation.
 
The Magnalight EPL-50-120×12-EHR hazardous area incandescent work light provides operators in Class 1 Division 1 hazardous environments with an effective spotlight that is well suited for illuminating select portions of large areas.  Although primarily producing a powerful spotlight beam, this explosion proof drop light still provides good peripheral illumination near the fixture as well. Containing an incandescent lamp within a slip ring type explosion proof housing, this unit is also equipped with 50 feet of SOOW 16/3 AWG cord to provide users with plenty of working cord length. The explosion proof cord is easily managed by the attached cord reel containing a spark proof ratcheting mechanism that prevents the chance of inadvertent ignitions of flammable atmospheres while the cord is being wound onto or off of the reel. Although safety is the primary concern, this light is also designed with convenience and user friendly operation in mind. 

Rather than mount the transformer in the handle where it could increase lamp weight and thus user fatigue, or in-line with the cord where it could prove cumbersome and easily tangled, Magnalight has mounted the transformer to the reel and effectively negated these issues. Designed for safety, durability and effectiveness, this explosion proof spotlight from Larson Electronics Magnalight meets federal specification JC-580A and is ideal for performing inspections and servicing work in large tanks or work areas where portions of the workspace may be difficult to access directly. 

“There are very few true explosion proof spotlights available on the market and we are uncovering a growing base of customers looking for barrel and tank inspection lights that will deliver plenty of punch power over long distances,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics’ magnalight.com.  “In most cases, customers are looking for explosion proof reel mounts, so they can deploy the light, perform the inspection and then rapidly store the explosion proof light, all within the hazardous location area.”
Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com carries an extensive line of explosion proof droplights, hazardous location lights, LED droplights, portable explosion proof work lights and intrinsically safe lights.
