Phoenix Products announces new metallic LED vaporproof fixture

Phoenix Products Company, Inc. has announced the release of the Metallic LED VP Series of vaporproof fixtures.  Aiming to keep the design of traditional “jelly-jar” fixtures, the Metallic LED VP uses a patent pending module to house a Bridgelux LED light source rated for 50,000 hours of illumination.  These versatile fixtures are UL 1598A listed for marine, outdoor, saltwater environments; UL 844 listed for hazardous locations; ABS listed; IP66; and LM79 tested and certified. The fixture employs strategically selected thermal paste in mounting the array for optimal transfer of heat from the array to the module where it is then dissipated to the environment.  Additionally, both the driver and array have been fully potted to protect against the effects of moisture, dust, and vibration. “This fixture epitomizes our ‘Durability by Design’ motto,” said Chief Executive Officer Scott Fredrick. “We have invested hundreds of hours toward the development

and testing of this design, both in our own lab and in the field. The Metallic LED VP really is purpose built and battle tested.”
