Vapor Tight LED Fixtures are engineered for "wet-location" environments where standard shop lights would fail. Featuring IP67-rated seals, these fixtures are fully protected against dust ingress and high-pressure washdowns, while IK10-rated housings provide the mechanical impact resistance required for high-traffic industrial zones.
Our collection focuses on corrosion-resistant solutions that withstand the moisture, road salt, and chemical exposure found in car washes, parking garages, and food processing facilities. By transitioning to these high-efficacy LED systems, you eliminate the ballast failures and gasket degradation common in legacy fluorescent models, ensuring 24/7 reliability in the most demanding transitional and exterior spaces.
Technical Specifications: Engineered for Extreme Environments
Not all "wet-rated" fixtures are created equal. Vapor tight lighting is specifically designed with a specialized gasket system that creates an airtight seal, preventing the "breathing" effect that pulls moisture and contaminants into standard fixtures during temperature fluctuations.
IP67 Protection and IK10 Impact Resistance
In environments like parking garages and loading docks, fixtures face two main threats: moisture and physical impact.
- IP67 Ingress Protection: While IP65 is standard for rain, our IP67-rated fixtures can withstand high-pressure washdowns and even temporary submersion, ensuring the internal LED drivers remain bone-dry.
- IK10 Impact Rating: The reinforced polycarbonate lenses are tested to withstand a 20-joule impact—equivalent to a 5kg mass dropped from 40cm—making them virtually vandal-proof in public spaces.
Specialized Hardware: Stainless Steel vs. Polycarbonate Latches
For facilities using harsh cleaning chemicals or exposed to road salt, hardware longevity is critical. We offer fixtures with 316 Stainless Steel Latches that will not become brittle or corrode over time, unlike standard plastic clips. This ensures the gasket seal remains tight for the entire lifespan of the LED engine.
Industry-Specific Applications
NSF Rated for Food Processing & Commercial Kitchens
Lighting in food-handling areas must meet strict safety standards. Many of our vapor tight solutions are NSF/ANSI 2 Splash Zone rated, featuring smooth, "easy-to-clean" housings that do not have exposed cooling fins where bacteria or debris can accumulate.
Field-Selectable Performance
To simplify large-scale retrofits, our collection includes Power and CCT Selectable models. This allows your team to standardize one fixture across an entire facility, adjusting the lumen output and color temperature (4000K or 5000K) to suit different ceiling heights or task areas on the fly.
