VL-EXI8189-XX Explosion-Proof LED Flood Lamp (40W–70W)
The VL-EXI8189-XX Explosion-Proof LED Flood Lamp is a compact, rugged lighting solution engineered for hazardous industrial environments where explosive gases or combustible dust are present. Delivering 40W to 70W of powerful, glare-free LED illumination with IP66 ingress protection, this floodlight ensures reliable, long-lasting performance across a wide range of challenging settings such as refineries, chemical plants, and offshore platforms.
Built for Hazardous Locations
Designed and certified for use in explosive zones, this flood lamp is rated ExdembIICB T6, making it fully compliant with IECEx and ATEX requirements. It meets the GB3836.1 and GB3836.2 safety standards, enabling safe installation in Zone 1/2 and Zone 21/22 environments. The IP66 protection level ensures complete resistance to dust, water ingress, and high-pressure sprays, ideal for both indoor and outdoor hazardous locations.
The WF2 anti-corrosion grade enclosure also offers added durability against harsh chemicals, saline air, and industrial vapors, extending the lamp’s service life even in corrosive environments.
Efficient LED Illumination with Flexible Beam Angles
Powered by 95 high-performance CREE 3030 LEDs, the VL-EXI8189-XX delivers a luminous efficacy of 120 lm/W, offering excellent brightness while minimizing energy consumption. The unit supports a variety of beam angles, including 15°, 25°, 36°, 45°, 60°, 90°, and 120° allowing precise customization of light coverage based on installation height and task area requirements.
With a Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) range of 3000K to 6500K, this flood lamp accommodates different lighting preferences, from warm white to daylight. A Color Rendering Index (CRI) ≥70 Ra ensures accurate visibility and color recognition for tasks in hazardous workspaces.
Long Operating Life and Instant Start
The VL-EXI8189-XX features a long-lasting LED lifespan of up to 100,000 hours, dramatically reducing maintenance costs and downtime in remote or difficult-to-access installations. With an instantaneous startup time of ≤0.2 seconds, the lamp provides immediate full brightness, ideal for mission-critical or emergency lighting scenarios.
Robust Electrical and Thermal Performance
Operating on a wide voltage range of AC100–220V with 50/60Hz frequency, this LED flood lamp integrates easily into industrial electrical systems. The power factor >0.95 ensures energy efficiency and power stability, reducing electrical waste and enhancing system reliability.
This floodlight is engineered to perform in extreme temperature conditions, with an operating and storage range from -30°C to 50°C (-22°F to 122°F), making it suitable for arctic cold or high-heat environments alike.
Compact Design and Industrial Durability
Despite its powerful output, the VL-EXI8189-XX maintains a compact and efficient design, measuring 300 × 186 × 137 mm (11.8 × 7.3 × 5.3 in) and weighing just 3.8 kg (8.3 lbs). Its rugged aluminum alloy housing withstands impact, corrosion, and environmental stressors, while remaining easy to mount on walls, ceilings, or poles.

All equipment in this category meets the rigorous safety requirements for classified hazardous locations. Independent certification to ATEX, IECEx, and UL standards verifies that each unit has been tested for use in explosive atmospheres found in petrochemical facilities, offshore platforms, grain handling operations, and chemical processing plants. These certifications are renewed on a defined schedule to reflect any design changes and to maintain compliance with evolving international standards.
Proper product selection depends on your site classification, mounting requirements, and operating environment. Class I Division 1 and Zone 1 environments demand the highest level of enclosure protection, while Division 2 and Zone 2 locations may permit designs with a lower protection level. Working with a certified hazardous-area specialist before finalising your specification helps ensure the installation meets both local electrical codes and applicable international standards without over-specifying the hardware.
