December 10, 2013 – Molex has introduced its Woodhead wide-area portable LED light for Class 1, Division 2 locations including petrochemical and refinery environments. 

Designed to operate safely in hazardous conditions, the light delivers 5270 lumen output lasting 50,000 hours and is operational in temperatures of -40C to 40C. The colour temperature of 5100K and 87 CRI claim to reduce fatigue and improve colour differentiation. Constructed with a rugged cast-aluminum enclosure and rubber lens-gasket assembly, it includes four 20W LED arrays with Molex array holders that can be serviced and contain no mercury. The light is also certified to CSA Groups B, C and D requirements with a T4A temperature rating and NEMA Type 3 enclosure rating for wet locations.
