When to use Hazardous Area Lighting?

Hazardous area lighting is essential wherever there is a risk of fire or explosion caused by the presence of flammable gases, vapours, liquids, or combustible dusts. These environments are commonly found across industries such as:

  • Oil and gas – refineries, petrochemical facilities, and storage terminals
  • Chemical processing plants
  • Mining operations, including coal handling facilities
  • Offshore platforms and marine vessels
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing and food processing (where dust particles can create ignition risks)

In these environments, standard lighting is unsafe. Certified hazardous area luminaires are specifically engineered to prevent ignition and ensure safe operation. They feature explosion-proof housings, sealed enclosures, impact-resistant construction, and specialised lenses, ensuring that no sparks or heat can ignite flammable substances.

The Raytec SPARTAN Lighting range of ATEX and IECEx certified LED luminaires is designed for exactly these environments. Offering robust construction and advanced optical performance, Raytec hazardous area lights improve workplace safety by delivering clear, reliable illumination in high-risk zones. Bright, uniform light not only helps employees identify potential hazards but also supports operational efficiency and compliance with international safety standards.

By choosing Raytec SPARTAN LED lighting, businesses reduce risk, improve visibility, and maintain productivity in the most challenging and dangerous industrial locations.
