What Are EXD Series Class 1 Division 1 LED Flood Lights?

The EXD Series Class 1 Division 1 explosion-proof LED flood lights are built for environments where flammable gases, vapors, or liquids are constantly present, such as mining operations and chemical plants. These lights are designed to contain any sparks or heat, preventing ignition in hazardous areas. They deliver high-lumen output for bright, uniform illumination, enhancing visibility and safety. The U.S. Department of Energy highlights that LED lighting can reduce energy use by up to 75% compared to traditional systems, making the EXD Series a sustainable choice.

Our hazardous area lighting at Maes Lighting is tailored for high-risk industries, ensuring compliance and performance.

Applications in Mining and Chemical Industries

The EXD Series is ideal for mining and chemical industries, where safety is critical. In mining, these flood lights illuminate underground tunnels and surface operations, ensuring safe working conditions. In chemical plants, they provide reliable lighting for processing areas with flammable substances. Their durable construction withstands harsh conditions like dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration emphasizes the importance of proper lighting in hazardous areas to prevent accidents and ensure worker safety.

Energy Efficiency and Durability

The EXD Series explosion-proof LED flood lights are highly energy-efficient, reducing electricity costs and environmental impact. Their long lifespan—up to 50,000 hours—minimizes maintenance and replacements, a key advantage in remote or hazardous locations. The Environmental Protection Agency notes that energy-efficient lighting reduces carbon emissions, supporting sustainability goals in industrial settings.

Safety and Compliance with Class 1 Division 1 Standards

Class 1 Division 1 certification ensures that the EXD Series meets the highest safety standards for areas with constant exposure to flammable materials. These lights are rigorously tested to withstand explosions and maintain functionality in extreme conditions. The National Fire Protection Association provides guidelines for lighting in hazardous locations, and the EXD Series complies with these standards, ensuring safety and reliability. Maes Lighting’s vapor-tight LEDs complement the EXD Series for versatile industrial applications.

Smart Features for Enhanced Control

The EXD Series includes smart features like dimming and remote monitoring, allowing for greater control and energy savings. These features reduce heat output in hazardous areas, enhancing safety while optimizing performance. The U.S. Green Building Council recognizes smart lighting as a key element in sustainable industrial design, helping businesses achieve safety and efficiency.
