Larson Electronics, a company that specializes in industrial lighting, has announced the release of a 15 watt explosion proof LED Drop Light with Cord Reel equipped with 25 feet of 16/3 AWG SOOW cord.
The EPL-FL1524-LED-25-HR from Larson Electronics is an LED Drop Light with Cord Reel, which provides easy management of the included 25 foot SOOW cord. The included cord gives operators in hazardous locations the ability to easily extend the working reach of the attached 15 watt LED drop light. The two foot, 15 watt LED drop light features a rugged, non-sparking aluminum casing and unique rod cage. It produces a cool, glare-free, shadow-less light that improves safety in hazardous locations and maximizes lighting efficiency. The lamp has no ballast, which reduces lamp weight, an impact resistant tube shield with specially designed annealed glass and an aluminum hook for easy overhead mounting.
The explosion proof reel is rated Class 1 Division 1 and Class 2 Division 2 and includes 25 feet of cord that feeds onto the reel assembly through a four roller adjustable cable guide with a ball stop. This reel includes an integral spring actuated ratcheting mechanism for positive cord management housed within the explosion proof threaded slip ring enclosure. The cord reel is assembled to UL 508 table 36.1/NEC Standards and conforms to NEMA 9 and NEMA 4 (IP56) standards as well. The reel is built with modular components, coupled with a spark proof ratchet and hazardous location slip ring housing. This explosion proof cord reel helps safely extend the operational range of the LED drop light without creating the hazards associated with excessive cord length strewn about the work space.
“The drop light and cord reel is ideal for use in tank cleaning applications, as well as for tedious inspections in paint booth applications,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larsonelectronics.com. “This unit is designed to withstand wet and corrosive conditions such as those found in docks and shipyards while maintaining explosion proof ratings throughout the whole unit.”
