    Plastic Bulb—Plastic bulbs are shatterproof.
    App Controlled—App-controlled bulbs offer the most flexibility: a free Wi-Fi app dials in any white temperature or color, toggles power, and runs schedules.

    Light up wet areas—these lights seal out moisture and humidity. They’ll even work in areas with frequent washdowns. Rated NEMA 4X, they withstand spraying liquid, resist corrosion, and keep out dust. Use them with medium-base, screw-in CFL (compact fluorescent), halogen, incandescent, and LED bulbs (sold separately).
    PTFE Lens—PTFE lenses are impact resistant.
    Tempered-Glass Lens—Tempered glass lenses are more durable than PTFE lenses. They have a zinc-plated steel guard to protect them.

    Explosion-Proof Portable Work Lights

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Portable Work Lights. Explosion-Proof Portable Work Lights, Style B.

    Style B

    Bring light to explosion-prone work areas. Rated NEC Class I, these lights are safe to use in areas with ignitable concentrations of flammable or combustible gases, vapors, and liquids. The housing of these lights contains fire and sparks, so they don’t ignite what’s in your environment. They’re often used in mines and underground drilling. All also meet NEMA 4X, meaning they withstand spraying liquid, resist corrosion, and keep out dust. Use the hook to hang them where you need them. These lights come with a standard three-prong plug, so electrical connections must be made outside of the hazardous environment. Alternatively, you can add a hazardous location plug.
    Style B—Style B are rated NEC Class II for use in areas with combustible dust. The guard and hook are made of copper-free aluminum, which minimizes the chance of creating sparks if you drop or bump them. To stand up to frequent use, a tempered borosilicate glass lens protects the bulb and the handle is made of impact-resistant glass.
    Hazardous Location Rating—Hazardous location environmental ratings indicate where manufacturers have included safety features in products to facilitate their safe use in hazardous environments. Before selecting a product for a hazardous location, ensure it is rated for your environment.
