WARNING:
USER SHOULD BE TRAINED IN THE PROPER USE AND MAINTENANCE OF THIS DEVICE. WHEN EXTENSION
CORD IS CONNECTED TO A POWER SOURCE IN HAZARDOUS AREA, PLUG AND MATCHING RECEPTACLE
MUST BE SUITABLE FOR HAZARDOUS LOCATION INVOLVED. IMPROPER USE OF THIS DEVICE, ASSOCIATED
PLUG, RECEPTACLE, AND CORD CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURIES OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL.
PERIODIC INSPECTION OF THE RECEPTACLE AND CORD IS NECESSARY.
THE CORD MUST BE ROUTINELY CHECKED FOR CUTS, BREAKS, OR ANY SEVERE ABRASIONS, AND IF ANY
ARE FOUND, THE CORD MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE RESUMING USE OF THE UNIT.
ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY MUST BE “OFF” BEFORE AND DURING INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE.
INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE MUST BE PERFORMED BY A TRAINED AND COMPETENT
ELECTRICIAN.
IF ANY PARTS OF THE RECEPTACLE OR PLUG APPEAR TO BE MISSING, BROKEN, OR SHOW SIGNS OR
DAMAGE, DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY. REPLACE WITH THE PROPER REPLACEMENT PART(S) BEFORE
CONTINUING SERVICE.
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.
The EPLC2-MB-100LED-100 Magnetic Mount Explosion Proof LED Light from Larson Electronics is rated Class 1 Division
2 Groups C & D and Class 2 Division 1-2 and uses a low profile LED light head to produce 14,000 lumens of light while
drawing only 100 watts.
Magnetic Warning
•PEOPLE WITH PACEMAKERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR PHYSICIAN(S) BEFORE USE.
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO HEART PACEMAKER COULD CAUSE
PACEMAKER INTERFERENCE OR PACEMAKER FAILURE.
•KEEP FINGERS AWAY FROM MAGNET WHEN MOUNTING AS INJURY COULD OCCUR.
This explosion proof light is designed for illumination of industrial locations. It uses the latest in solid state lighting technology for
long life, low maintenance and high efficiency.
The unique design focuses the light where it is needed, giving improved efficiency over a conventional HIDluminaire.
An internal, universal input, power-factor-corrected switch-mode supply allows it to be used from any nominal 120-277V AC
supply without any variation in light output. Low voltage and high voltage specific models available as options upon request.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of fire, explosion or electric shock, this product should be installed, inspected and maintained by a qualified
electrician only, in accordance with all applicable electrical codes.

To avoid electric shock:
Be certain electrical power is OFF before and during installation and maintenance.
Luminaire must be connected to a wiring system withan equipment-grounding conductor.
To avoidexplosion:
Make sure the supply voltage is within the luminaires’ voltage rating.
Ensure the marked T rating is less than the ignition temperature of the Hazardous Atmosphere.
Do not operate in ambient temperatures abovethose indicated on the luminaire nameplate.
Do not operate if the lens is cracked or damaged. All fasteners shouldbe properly seated.
MOUNTING
This explosion proof LED light fixture is comprised of a 16x14 inch LED light head mounted atop a legged base stand fabricated
from non sparking aluminum, with a separate shelf type magnetic mounting bracket that allows mounting to ferrous
metallic surfaces. The lamp can be easily adjusted up or down 90 degrees and locked into position by simply loosening
the two T-handle adjustment screws located on either side of the light head and retightening them once the desired angle is
found. Included with this LED light is 100 feet of SOOW cord terminating in an 1523 explosion proof straight blade plug.
The magnetic mounting bracket for this unit includes six 200 lbs. grip magnetic bases which provide a total of 1,200 lbs. of grip
and allows operators to mount the unit to walls and flat metallic surfaces. Users simply attach the magnetic mounting bracket to
the desired surface, then hang the lamp assembly from the bracket.
WARNING: If there is moisture present, or chance of it, in the conduit system then necessary
precautions should be taken by the installer to prevent the moisture from entering through the cable or conduit and entering the
fixture. Failure to comply with the above could void the warranty.
WIRING (see attached wiring diagram)
This unit comes equipped with 100 feet of SOOW cord terminating in an 1523 explosion proof straight blade plug. This plug
must be used with a compatible explosion proof receptacle to maintain the explosion proof rating of this fixture.
WARNING: CHECK NAMEPLATE
FOR PROPER VOLTAGE. DAMAGE
FROM IMPROPER VOLTAGE WILL
VOID WARRANTY.
MAINTENANCE
Caution: To avoid personal injury, disconnect power to the light and allow the unit to cool down before
performing maintenance.
Warning: No user serviceable parts inside of fixture. Risk of electric shock. Removal of the lens will void
the warranty.
1. Perform visual, mechanical and electrical inspections on a regular basis. We recommend routine
checks to be made on a yearly basis. Frequency of use and environment should determine this. It is
recommended to follow an Electrical Preventive Maintenance Program as described in NFPA 70B:
Recommended practice for Electrical Equipment.
2. The lens should be cleaned periodically as needed to ensure continued photometric performance.
Clean the lens with a damp, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. If not sufficient, use mild soap or a liquid
cleaner.
3. Inspect the cooling fins on the luminaire to ensure that they are free of any obstructions or
contamination (i.e. excessive dust build-up). Clean with a non-abrasive cloth if needed.
4. Do not operate if the lens is cracked or damaged. All fasteners should be properly seated.
