The Nemalux CANLED is a compact, industrial-grade LED luminaire purpose-built for challenging environments where space is limited. Designed specifically for both general and hazardous location applications, the CANLED excels in harsh conditions with an ambient temperature operating range of -40°C to +55°C. This luminaire runs on a 12 to 24 Volt DC direct input, eliminating the need for AC power conversion in low-voltage systems. Its small size and rugged build make it ideal for tight or difficult-to-access locations, providing reliable, focused illumination where larger fixtures cannot be installed.
Constructed with a single-piece, machined, copper-free aluminum housing, the CANLED is built for long-term durability in extreme environments. A polycarbonate protective lens ensures impact resistance while maintaining an IP66 ingress protection rating. All external fasteners are stainless steel, allowing secure and corrosion-resistant mounting in outdoor or wet areas. The housing’s Type II anodized finish enhances resistance to corrosion and weathering, further extending its service life in demanding field conditions.
Internally, the CANLED features metal core circuit boards for improved thermal dissipation, and integrated switching drivers that allow seamless operation across a wide range of DC voltages. Its thermal management system is designed to maximize longevity and maintain stable performance, even when ambient temperatures approach the fixture’s upper limit. The luminaire is factory-sealed with a 6-foot flying lead that passes through a 1/2" NPT entry on the rear of the fixture, ensuring a watertight and secure installation.
Certified for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups ABCD, T3 hazardous locations, the CANLED is frequently deployed across industries such as food and beverage processing, nuclear power generation, and remote industrial outposts. In nuclear facilities, it serves as a task light in areas with exposure to radiation, thanks to its robust construction. Its compact form and reliable output have also made it an effective sight-glass light in production lines. Additionally, the CANLED is an optimal solution for remote locations powered by solar energy, as it integrates easily into 12V or 24V DC systems, eliminating the inefficiency and cost of AC conversion.
Installation is straightforward. While an external junction box is required to connect the flying lead to the main DC feed, the CANLED’s yoke mount provides flexibility in aiming and orientation. Operating at just 7.9 watts on 12V and 8.4 watts on 24V, with a current draw of 0.66A and 0.35A respectively, the fixture delivers effective light output without burdening the power system. The standard 5000K color temperature can be customized from 2700K to 6500K or even configured with colored LEDs to suit specific application needs.
The CANLED represents a compact yet powerful lighting solution for industrial sectors requiring safe, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance lighting in hazardous environments.
