Hazardous Area LED Lighting ATEX Zone 2 (21/22) – Appleton Industrial Areamaster™ Connect LED
Hazardous Area LED Lighting
Appleton Industrial Areamaster™ Connect LED
The Appleton™ Industrial Areamaster™ Connect LED Luminaire is engineered for top-tier performance and flexibility, offering a next-generation WirelessHART™ connected hazardous area LED lighting solution.
The hazardous area floodlight features adjustable lumen output ranging from 9,500 to 38,000 lumens, while enhancing the WirelessHART™ network. Areamaster™ Connect hazardous area LED luminaire is designed for harsh and hazardous industrial environments Zone 2 (21/22).
Areamaster™ Connect supports various smart control features, such as dimmable output, built-in photocontrol for daylight harvesting, and customised group scheduling. Its integrated 0-10v dimming controller allows for the adjustment of lighting output across a group of dimmable LED luminaires. Additionally, the optional Plantweb™ Insight Connected Lighting Application offers map-based commissioning, energy usage tracking, and maintenance notifications.
In the long term, the Connected Lighting Application tracks system health and energy usage to reduce maintenance needs, while also analysing sustainability metrics, such as CO2 emission reductions.
