Cooper Crouse-Hinds® Introduces the FZD Series(TM) Floodlight Luminaire for Hazardous Areas



SYRACUSE, NY - Cooper Crouse-Hinds FZD Series(TM) Luminaires are the first to deliver NEMA 7 x 6 floodlight distribution patterns for Class I, Division 1 and Zone 1 environments. The FZD Series provides superior light distribution with fewer luminaries to illuminate a given area, thereby eliminating the old practice of using general area luminaires with high-bay reflectors as floodlights.

The FZD Series is full of labor-savings and easy-maintenance features all designed to make you more efficient and productive. The internal reflector, available in wide and narrow-beam options, is enclosed in a glass tube, reducing maintenance while enhancing light output. The explosionproof threaded construction, suitable for hazardous and industrial applications, makes it easy to maintain with no bolted covers. The FZD Series floodlight is simple to install, requiring only two bolts for mounting and is completely wired and ready to install!

The FZD Series is ideal for heavy process industries where flammable or explosive vapors or gases are present. Install it in hazardous areas, both indoors and outdoors, where you require elevated ambient capability and where long life and low maintenance costs are desired. The heavy-duty, cast copper-free aluminum construction and epoxy powder-coat finish will provide long life in abusive conditions. The Enclosure Type 4X and Marine Listed FZD Series has O-ring gaskets on all threaded openings, suitable for the harshest environments.

The FZD Series is UL and cUL Listed, and is rated for Class I, Division 1, Groups C & D and Class I, Zone 1, Groups IIB applications. The FZD Series is available in High Pressure Sodium and Metal Halide lamp sources ranging from 150 to 400 watts.
