Larson Releases 25-Watt, Explosion Proof LED Crane Light

Larson Electronics, a leader in the commercial and industrial lighting sector, has announced the release of a 25-watt (W) red, light-emitting diode (LED) crane light. The product is designed to expand safety measures in hazardous work areas by providing early notifications for nearby workers and pedestrians.

The EPL-TN-CRN-RED red LED warning light is an explosion-proof light that produces 2,250 lumens (lm) of sharp red light while drawing only 2.09 amps from a 12-volt (V) electrical system.

Designed to Warn Pedestrian, Bystanders                  

This LED spotlight is can be mounted on the front or back of a crane or other heavy machinery to warn pedestrians and bystanders when in the path of oncoming machinery.

Five 5-W red LEDs, each producing 450 lumens, are combined with high output parabolic reflectors to produce a narrow 5-degree spread spot beam, providing a high intensity center beam that is visible at night and during the day.

This LED warning light can operate in temperatures ranging between -40°C (-40° F) and 80°C (176° F). It is also waterproof (up to 1 m [3.3 f]) and resistant to the ingress of dust, dirt, and humidity. The housing is formed from extruded aluminum and the lens is constructed of unbreakable polycarbonate (PC).

The light is enclosed in a Class 1 Division 1 casing constructed of copper-free aluminum with a thermoset, powder coat finish. The lens on the casing is constructed of thermal shock and impact-resistant tempered glass.

Eliminates Need for Strobe Lights, Audible Alarms

The LED safety light is permanently mounted with a yolk type bracket with a single through hole.

“This new LED light eliminates the need for strenuous strobe lights and audible alarms that could cause more of a distraction rather than assist with safety precautions in a hazardous work area,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics.

Larson Electronics specializes in portable industrial lighting equipment, high mast light towers, explosion-proof light fixtures, power distribution systems, LED lighting, and more.
