Encapsulated LED area lights

February 2014 Sensors & Transducers

Banner Engineering’s encapsulated LED area lights are designed for use in industrial environments. These powerful, solid-state lights are completely encapsulated in optically clear polyurethane, enhancing chemical compatibility and increasing their resistance to shock and vibrations. The rugged, high intensity lights are ideal for machine lighting, visual inspection stations and general industrial area lighting. They are available in four sizes and have a sleek polycarbonate housing and slim profile.

“The WLA lights provide our customers with a high brightness, vibration resistant lighting solution for tough industrial applications such as stamping machines and punch presses,” said Kathy Erickson, technical marketing manager, Banner Engineering. “The polyurethane also has excellent resistance to fuel, oils, grease and many solvents.”

Featuring a maintenance-free design, the energy-efficient lights are designed to withstand high pressure and high temperature washdown applications and are rated to IP69K. Easy installation options include quick disconnect or cable versions, a versatile angle bracket and a convenient magnetic mount solution.
