SHAT-R-SHIELD
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about SHAT-R-SHIELD from 3G Electric.
What are the hazardous location ratings for Shat-R-Shield LED flood light fixtures?
Shat-R-Shield LED flood hazardous location fixtures are rated for various Class I, II, and III divisions. For example, some models are Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; others are Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G; and some are Class III, Divisions 1 and 2. These ratings indicate suitability for environments with flammable gases, combustible dust, or ignitable fibers. The fixtures also carry temperature codes T3C or T4, with maximum surface temperatures of 200°C and 135°C respectively. Always verify the specific model's rating against your area classification.
What lumen outputs and wattages are available in Shat-R-Shield hazardous location LED fixtures?
Shat-R-Shield hazardous location LED flood fixtures are available in several wattages and lumen outputs. The range includes 30W delivering 5,300 lumens, 48W delivering 8,200 lumens, 60W delivering 10,900 lumens, and 95W delivering 16,000 lumens. All models operate at 5000K color temperature and 120/277V AC. The lumen output and wattage should be selected based on the required illumination level and energy consumption for the specific application. Higher wattage models provide greater light output for larger areas or higher mounting heights.
What mounting options are available for Shat-R-Shield LED flood hazardous location fixtures?
Shat-R-Shield LED flood hazardous location fixtures come with different mounting configurations to suit various installation requirements. Available options include stanchion mount, yoke/trunnion mount, and wall mount. Stanchion mount is typically used for pole or bracket installation, yoke/trunnion mount allows for adjustable aiming, and wall mount is for direct wall attachment. The mounting type is indicated in the model number and specifications. Ensure the selected mount is compatible with your installation location and structural support.
What is the purpose of the Shat-R-Shield G1002 glass globe?
The Shat-R-Shield G1002 glass globe is a replacement lens for vapor-tight light fixtures, specifically Jerry Jar type fixtures. It measures 6 3/4 inches in length, 3 inches in width, and 3 inches in height. The glass globe protects the lamp from moisture, dust, and physical damage while maintaining light transmission. It is used in industrial and commercial lighting applications where a sealed fixture is required. When replacing a lens, verify dimensions and compatibility with the existing fixture to ensure proper fit and sealing.
What voltage do Shat-R-Shield LED flood hazardous location fixtures operate on?
Shat-R-Shield LED flood hazardous location fixtures operate on 120/277V AC, a dual voltage range common in industrial and commercial lighting circuits. This allows flexibility in installation where either 120V or 277V is available. The fixtures are designed to work on both voltages without modification. Ensure the supply voltage matches the fixture's rating and that wiring is performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local electrical codes. The 120/277V AC rating is standard across the hazardous location LED flood fixture line.
What temperature codes apply to Shat-R-Shield hazardous location LED fixtures?
Shat-R-Shield hazardous location LED fixtures carry temperature codes T3C or T4, depending on the model. T3C indicates a maximum surface temperature of 200°C, while T4 indicates 135°C. These codes are critical for hazardous location classification, as they define the maximum temperature the fixture will reach under normal operation. The temperature code must be compatible with the ignition temperature of any flammable gases, vapors, or dusts present in the environment. Always match the fixture's temperature code to the area's hazardous material characteristics.
