In the petrochemical industry, oil tank storage, mining tunnels and other flammable and explosive environments, the choice of safety lighting equipment is directly related to the safety of personnel and production continuity.

140W explosion proof lights with its high performance, long life and multiple protection design, into the core lighting equipment for industrial high-risk places.        

In this paper, we will comprehensively analyze the 140W explosion proof lights from the product style, price analysis, application scenarios and other dimensions, to assist enterprises to implement the double enhancement of safety and efficiency.

First, 140W explosion proof light: industrial safety lighting core requirements

140W explosion proof light is designed for explosive gases or dust environment design special lighting equipment, approved Explosion proof structure, temperature control technology and high protection level, effectively preventing internal sparks or high temperature triggered by the external hazardous media explosion. Its core advantages cover:

High luminous efficacy output: 140W LED light source can replace the traditional 500W metal halide lamp, energy saving rate of more than 60%, covering an area of 150-250 square meters. Ultra-long life: average operating life of 60,000 hours or more, reducing maintenance frequency and cost. Environmental adaptability: IP65/66 protection level, resistant to salt spray, corrosion and extreme temperature [-50℃~+60℃].

Applicable scenes: oilfield drilling platforms, chemical plants, reactors, tank storage area, pharmaceutical workshops and other Zone 1/2 hazardous areas.

Second, 140W explosion proof light style analysis: matching the needs of diverse scenes

According to the structure and function of the differences, 140W Explosion proof lights can be divided into the following mainstream styles:

[1] Explosion proof floodlights

Suitable for refinery installations, open yards and other large area lighting scenes, irradiation distance up to 50 meters, luminous flux up to 18,200LM.

[2] Explosion proof high bay Light

Adopting multi-faceted reflector design, even light without glare, suitable for chemical plant warehouses, underground parking lots and other spaces.

[3] Explosion proof Ceiling Light

Specially designed for low space [such as power plant boiler room, cold storage], with high-speed disassembly and installation, suitable for wet environment.

[4] Explosion proof platform light

Explosion proof platform light, equipped with stainless steel bracket and anti-vibration structure, suitable for oilfield drilling platforms, coal conveyor belts and other vibration-frequent areas.

Selection advocate: according to the environmental media [gas / dust], installation height and functional requirements [such as emergency lighting] comprehensive assessment.

Third, 140W explosion proof light price analysis: cost-effective and safety balance

140W Explosion proof light prices are affected by the following factors:

Material technology: aviation aluminum alloy shell than ordinary steel cost 25% -40%, but better heat dissipation and corrosion resistance.

Certification guidelines: approval of ATEX, IECEx international certification product prices than the national standard [GB3836] 30% -50% higher.

Additional features: emergency module, intelligent dimming, salt spray resistant coating will increase the cost of 20%-35%.

Market reference price:

Economy: ¥1,800-¥3,500 [Cornerstone Explosion proof function, national standard certification]

Mid-range: ¥4,000-¥6,000 [International certification + high protection level]

High-end: ¥7,000-¥12,000 [Intelligent control + customized design]

Purchasing strategy: Priority is given to suppliers with 3-5 years warranty and complete Explosion proof certification documents.

Fourth, 140W Explosion proof light practical application cases

Case 1: offshore oil platform lighting transformation

Pain point: salt spray corrosion caused by the shortening of the life of the lamps and lanterns.

Program: deployment of IP68 level 140W explosion proof lights, using 316 stainless steel shell with nano-coating.

Effect: annual maintenance costs reduced by 70%, equipment life extended to 5 years.

Case 2: chemical plant Explosion proof zone lighting upgrade

Requirement: Zone 1 area needs to meet Ex d IIC T4 guidelines.

Implementation: Installation of 50 140W Explosion proof LED lights with a color temperature of 5000K.

Results: Illumination upgraded to 350 lux, OSHA safety audit approved.

Case 3: Tank Farm Emergency Lighting System

Challenge: emergency lighting needs to be activated instantaneously when the main power is interrupted.

Program: choose EA type 140W Explosion proof emergency lights, hold to help power outage automatic switching.

Benefits: Emergency response time <0.5 seconds, to ensure the safe evacuation of personnel.

Case 4: pharmaceutical clean room

Demand: Explosion proof and cleanliness [ISO Class 8] double compliance.

Solution: Seamless design 140W increased safety explosion proof light with easy-to-clean surface.

Value: Approval of GMP certification, cleaning efficiency increased by 30%.

Case 5: Mining Tunnel Lighting

Difficulty: Humidity and vibration lead to frequent lamp failures.

Solution: Install shock-resistant 140W explosion proof lights with IP69K protection level.

Result: 90% reduction in failure rate, maintenance cycle extended to 3 years.

Fifth. 140W explosion proof light installation methods: safety and performance guarantee

1. wall-mounted installation

Applicable scenes: tank enclosure, plant walls Steps: the use of M10 stainless steel bolts fixed, the power cord into the Explosion proof flexible tube seal 49.

2. Boom type installation

Advantages: Applicable to high space [such as warehouse ceiling], uniform irradiation range. Note: The safety factor of load-bearing chain should be ≥5 times, and the tilt angle should be ≤10°.

3. Riser bracket installation

Typical applications: factory roads, open-air work areas Parameter proposition: Pole height 8-12 meters, spacing 15-20 meters, to avoid glare interference.

Safety norms: before installation need to be disconnected and operated by a licensed electrician, regularly check the seals and cable entrances.

Sixth, 140W Explosion proof light FAQ: to answer the core concerns of users

Q1: 140W Explosion proof lights can operate in -50 ℃ low-temperature environment?

A: You need to choose a wide-temperature models [operating temperature -50 ° C ~ +60 ° C], and configure a low-temperature special power supply driver.

Q2: Does the surface temperature of the lamp affect the Explosion proof performance?

A: The surface temperature of the compliant products is lower than the ignition point of dangerous gases [e.g. T4 grade ≤ 135℃], and the temperature rise data should be tested regularly.

Q3: How to maintain the emergency lighting module?

A: EA-type lamps and lanterns built-in lithium battery, advocating the implementation of capacity testing every 2 years to ensure that the power failure range ≥ 90 minutes.

Q4: Do I need to return to the factory to replace the LED module?

A: Unauthorized modification will lead to failure of Explosion proof certification, must be the original factory supply authorized maintenance services.

Q5: How to determine whether the light failure of the lamps and lanterns exceeds the standard?

A: When the illumination decreases by 30% or obvious dark areas appear, it is necessary to contact the supplier to implement light efficiency testing.
