EV series lighting fixtures have been specially designed for use in the petrochemical and oil refining industries as they combine beauty and functionality along with high performance and simplicity in complete compliance with the technological requirements of the “Ex sector”. The low copper content aluminium alloy, shockproof borosilicate glass and electropolished stainless steel components make these lighting fixtures ideal for use in environments with corrosive atmospheric agents, salts and industrial pollution. Mechanical characteristics such as ceramic lamp holders with high heat resistance
and insulating properties and acid-proof neoprene gaskets guarantee a long working life with little maintenance. Scheduled maintenance work involves simply cleaning the glass that, thanks to its IP66 protection, can be safely cleaned with a wet cloth. As specified in the appropriate installation standard (EN/IEC 60079-14), the entry to the fixture must be only through an Ex “barrier” cable gland (sealed) or, in the case of a conduit system, with an EYS, EZS sealing fittings
