ASL55 LED-Ex luminaire — explosion-proof sight glass light
ASL55 LED-Ex luminaire — explosion-proof sight glass light, stainless steel, IP65/IP67, long-life LED (~50,000 h). For mounting on sight glass fittings: This sight glass luminaire is designed for universal applications and is ideal for use in combined sight and light ports (single-flange version) or with two separate ports (2-flange version)
Description
The ASL55 LED-Ex luminaire is an Ex-rated, stainless-steel sight glass luminaire engineered for hazardous areas (gas Zones 1/2 & dust Zones 21/22). It delivers glare-free, cold LED illumination with long service life and minimal heat load — ideal for bioreactors, flow indicators, and sight ports where safety and visual clarity matter.
Why choose the ASL55 LED-Ex?
- Explosion-proof certified: II 2G Ex db IIC T6 Gb and II 2D Ex tb IIIC T80°C Db — suitable for gas & dust hazardous zones.
- Long-life LED: high-power LEDs rated for up to ~50,000 hours; vibration-proof and low maintenance.
- IP65 / IP67 protection: robust dust and water protection for harsh process environments.
- Cold light: almost no heat into the process; safe for temperature-sensitive or sterile operations.
- Stainless steel, hygienic finish: polished 1.4404 housing and borosilicate lens for easy cleaning and corrosion resistance.
