Larson Electronics reveals its Class 1 Division 1 explosion-proof string lights with a portable power transformer, which inverts high-voltage input to low-voltage output for powering the hand lamps.
The EPL-SL-8X75-12V-TXF explosion-proof string light set from Larson Electronics contains a total of eight work lights that are equipped with aluminum hooks and connected in series along 80 feet of 16/3 SOOW explosion-proof cord. An additional 20 feet of cord is used to connect the transformer to the lamps to provide ample length for connection outside of a hazardous area. A sealed aluminum junction box is mounted every 10 feet, with three feet of 16/3 SOOW cord connecting a single drop light to each junction box. Each hand lamp is equipped with a 100-watt incandescent bulb. The machined aluminum housings, cast aluminum guard, tempered glass lamp globe and abrasion-resistant cord make this a very durable unit that will resist damage from chemicals, abrasions, vibrations and impacts. This string lighting solution will provide operators a flexible, easy to manage lighting solution. The hand lamps can be moved around and hooked to different points on a scaffold, but must remain within 10 feet of one another. The portable transformer converts 120/220 volts AC to 14 volts AC for the 12-volt 100-watt drop lights. The transformer is enclosed within a NEMA 3R enclosure and includes a twist lock receptacle and weather-proof cover. This transformer is mounted on a stand and has 3 feet of SOOW cord with a standard 5-15 straight blade plug.
