The EPL-16BS-1X150LED-25 from Larson Electronics is an Explosion Proof LED Base Stand Light that is rated Class I
Divisions 1 & 2 Groups C & D and Class II Divisions 1 & 2 and uses a 22 inch Cree LED light head to produce 21,000
lumens of light while drawing only 150 watts. The EPL-16BS-1X150LED-25 is mounted on a convenient aluminum base
stand that provides a stable way to hold the light head in position in the work place.
WIRING
Standard pigtail(flying leads) wiring
We strongly encourage a licensed electrician install this product,in all locations especially in outdoor areas
where weatherproofing may be required. Universal voltage driver permits operation at 120V - 277V AC, 50 or 60Hz.
Warning: Check product label for correct input voltage!
Attach supply line wires to the appropriate light fixture wires as shown
in thediagram 
Secure each pair of wires according to the diagram. Utilize a junction box or
similar device and take precautionary steps for weatherproofing all
connections if installed in a location where water may come in contact with the
unit. Ensure the unit is properly grounded and that wiring is done according to
all local and national electrical/building codes.
Exp Cord Cap
Position device near work area for operation. Run cable to nearby power
source. Insert and twist-lock explosion-proof plug into a compatible receptacle within
the hazardous environment. See plug operation below.
PLUG OPERATION
Electrical connection between plug and compatible receptacle is accomplished
after plug fully inserts into receptacle and rotated clockwise.
1. Lift receptacle door and locate polarization on mating plug pin and
receptacle face. Insert plug straight all the way into receptacle until it
cannot go further.
2. Rotate plug clockwise limit (37º), this closes internal contacts and
completes circuit. This also mechanically locks plug into receptacle so it
cannot be pulled out.
3. To remove plug, push plug inward and turn to counterclockwise, pull plug
straight out.

INSTALLATION
Before operation, confirm that the power source will provide the correct voltage indicated on the product
nameplate. Ensure the receptacle will accept the cord cap attached to the light. This light is shipped
preconfigured with selected Beam Config, Voltage, and Cord Cap.
Check product nameplate for Ratings and Approvals.
Place the light in the desired location and run its power cord to a compatible power source. Ensure all safety
requirements are followed for the hazardous area. Light head can separate from base stand. To install light
head, simply slide over base stand and tighten the hand screw. Ensure light head is fully seated before
tightening hand screw. This can be loosened to rotate light head 360° horizontally.
This light is instant-on and will illuminate once energized.
Multi-voltage capability allows this light to be powered via Voltage: 120-277V AC, 50/60Hz
ADJUSTMENT
Loosen the hand screws on either side of the light to make vertical adjustments.
Tighten hand screws once desired angle is achieved.
The light head can be removed from the base stand for easy maneuverability or
for stowing. Simply loosen the hand screw toward the base of the light head and
lift off light head. Place light head on base stand and tighten hand screw to replace. HAND SCREW
MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that you implement a standard monthly or morefrequent preventive maintenance schedule. Safety requires a
thorough visual examination of the unit for physical damage that might cause a spark or result in the ignition of hazardous
atmospheres.
Maintenance includes a careful examination to ensure at least:
A. The Light Body is not cracked, broken or breeched.
B. The Lens is not cracked or chipped.
C. The Cable is not frayed and is gripping tightly in all points of cable contact.
D. The Cable Jacket is completely intactand that no internal conductorsor conductor insulation is exposed.
E. The Connection Box is not cracked, broken or breeched.
F. The Cord Plug is not cracked or damaged and the Ground Post is intact.
For your safety and to maximize the life of the light, avoid rough usage suchas:
A. Pulling the Light by the Cable, which could weaken or damage the cable.
B. Impacting the lens with hard, sharp or heavy objects, which could cause the lens to scratch, chip,
crack, or shatter.
C. Disconnecting the Cord Plug from the receptacle by pulling on the Cable.
Keeping the light clean and free of material splatter,overspray, and debris during usage will ensure the maximum life and luminosity of
the light.
