The Wolf Rechargeable Torch is a high-performance ATEX and IECEx certified right-angle safety torch designed for safe and reliable use in hazardous environments. It is approved for use in Zones 1 and 2 potentially explosive gas atmospheres, as well as Zones 21 and 22 dust atmospheres (model R-50), with a specialist version also available for Zone 0 and Zone 21 applications (model R-55). Built with advanced technology, it delivers exceptional illumination, durability, and safety for a wide range of industrial operations in challenging conditions.
Engineered for strength and resilience, the torch is extremely robust, offering proven shock protection even at sub-zero temperatures. It features a rubber-armoured lens ring and end cap for added durability, along with a lens that is resistant to scratches and chemical attack. Its certified IP67 enclosure ensures complete dust-tight sealing and protection from water immersion. The compact, lightweight, and ergonomic body design enhances grip and comfort, enabling easy single-handed operation even when wearing gloves. For added practicality, a replaceable high-strength clip allows for hands-free use in demanding work environments.
The Wolf Rechargeable Torch employs unique optics to deliver a piercing, high-intensity beam from its powerful LED light source. It operates on the latest rechargeable battery technology, providing up to 6.5 hours of light on the low-power setting and 3.5 hours on high power. A low battery indicator system allows the user to monitor remaining charge — high-intensity red LEDs gradually switch off as the charge depletes, and when the battery is nearly exhausted, the beam flashes repeatedly to signal that recharging is required. The torch also incorporates an emergency function that automatically illuminates the beam if power to the charger is cut, offering essential standby lighting for escape routes and emergency situations.
Designed for minimal maintenance, the torch allows for quick and easy parts replacement, with a full spares service available for all internal and external components. The LED light source is designed to last the lifetime of the torch, ensuring reliable performance without the need for replacement. For charging flexibility, both vehicle and mains voltage charger options are available, providing a rapid recharge time of only 1.5 hours to reach 90% capacity. The mountable “quick” charger doubles as a secure torch holder, featuring a snap-in/snatch-out mechanism for quick access while maintaining secure retention when not in use.
Certified to both ‘ib’ and ‘ia’ intrinsic safety standards, the Wolf Rechargeable Torch meets the highest safety classifications for explosive atmospheres. It is approved for Gas Groups IIA, IIB, and IIC across Zones 1, 2, and, in the R-55 version, Zone 0. For dust environments, it is certified for Dust Groups IIIA and IIIB in Zones 21 and 22, with a maximum surface temperature of 200°C. The torch is temperature-rated for operation in ambient conditions from -40°C to +40°C and has a temperature class of T4 for gas applications. Constructed from impact-resistant, chemical-resistant, and static-dissipative thermoplastic with a toughened 4mm glass lens, it is built to endure the most demanding conditions.
Weighing only 0.375 kg including cells, the Wolf Rechargeable Torch combines high output, rugged construction, and safety-focused engineering to deliver reliable illumination for hazardous area operations. Its combination of ergonomic design, high beam intensity, long battery life, and certified explosion-proof protection makes it an indispensable lighting tool for industries such as oil and gas, mining, petrochemical processing, emergency services, and hazardous area maintenance work.
