The SafeSite® LED Area Light is engineered to be the industry’s most durable and widely certified hazardous location area lighting solution, setting a new benchmark for safety, longevity, and performance in the harshest industrial environments. Designed to withstand extreme conditions while delivering superior energy efficiency and virtually maintenance-free operation, it is ideal for applications in the oil and gas, chemical processing, offshore, mining, particulate-heavy, and other volatile or high-risk industries. With configurations covered under Dialight’s robust 5- and 10-year warranties, the SafeSite Area Light ensures long-term reliability and operational peace of mind.
This advanced luminaire is certified for use in a broad range of hazardous areas, meeting global standards such as UL 844 (Class I Division 1 & 2, Class II, Class III), CSA, and IECEx/ATEX for Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21, and Zone 22 classifications. Engineered for environmental resilience, it boasts IP66, IP67, and IP69 ingress protection, as well as NEMA 4X ratings for corrosion and moisture resistance. Its rugged housing provides high mechanical impact protection with IK10 rated polycarbonate lens options and IK07 rated tempered glass variants, giving users the flexibility to choose based on the specific demands of their installation environment.
The SafeSite Area Light supports multiple beam distributions, including 360° omnidirectional coverage, 180° forward throw for angled mounting at 45°, and wide beam optics optimized for flat 0° mounting. Color temperature options include cool white (5000K), neutral white (4000K), and warm white (2700K), all with a high color rendering index (CRI) of 80 to support accurate visual recognition and safety-critical tasks.
Offering a wide range of lumen outputs from 2,800 to 9,000 lumens and achieving efficacy up to 143 lumens per watt, the fixture is DLC Premium listed (available on most models), maximizing both energy efficiency and rebate eligibility. It is also capable of operating across an extensive array of electrical systems, supporting 100–277 VAC, 347–480 VAC, 120–250 VDC, and 24–48 VDC input ranges, making it a flexible solution for both new construction and retrofit scenarios without the need for complex rewiring.
Built to perform in the most extreme temperatures, the SafeSite Area Light operates reliably from -40°F to +149°F (-40°C to +65°C). Its construction features a robust copper-free aluminum housing with a superior dual-layer finish, including a sealed polyester topcoat over an epoxy primer for maximum corrosion resistance. Electrical protections are comprehensive, including 6 kV surge (transient) protection, compliance with FCC Title 47, Subpart B, Section 15 (Class A), RF immunity up to 20V/m from 80 MHz to 1 GHz, and Class C harmonic limits per IEC 61000-3-2. It maintains a power factor above 0.9 and limits total harmonic distortion (THD) to less than 20%, ensuring stable and efficient electrical performance.
The fixture includes a 10-foot STOOW cable (1.02 mm, 18 AWG) for ease of installation and is compatible with a wide array of mounting options, including pendant (¾" NPT), ceiling, wall, stanchion, and stainless steel adjustable brackets. Finished in grey (RAL 7040), the SafeSite LED Area Light delivers not only unmatched durability and efficiency, but also the design flexibility and certified safety required for modern industrial lighting applications in hazardous zones.
