Machine Lights have 2 lenses for heat reduction.
Press Release Summary:
HGW halogen machine lighting features inner and outer glass lenses, which protect lamp from breakage. Thermal barrier between lenses helps outer lens remain cooler. This prevents coolant and other chemicals from baking onto outside lens. Lights provide IP-65 waterproof protection. They are available with 12V 55W lamp, or 24V 70W lamp with polished reflector. HGWK head only, double lens model is offered for compact work areas. Original Press Release:
All Waldmann Lighting's Large Halogen Machine Lights Now Come Standard With Two Lenses For Increased Heat Reduction and Operator Safety
Wheeling, Ill -Waldmann Lighting Company's HGW Large Halogen Machine Lighting series now features standard double glass lenses included with all luminaires. Having both an inner and outer glass lens enclosed in one machine light protects the lamp (bulb) from breakage, and also causes the outer lens to remain cooler since there is a thermal barrier between the two lenses. This barrier helps to prevent coolant and other chemicals from
baking onto the outside lens, since the heat generated from the halogen lamp (bulb) is absorbed by the inner glass lens only. Operator safety is improved because the viewing area stays clear of coolant and other fluids that may be prevalent, and the light consistently illuminates the application-at-hand. See our cooler halogen HGW and our entire line of machine tool lighting solutions at the Westec Trade Show in Los Angeles, California, on
March 18-21.
This new standard double lens feature is available on Waldmann's 18-inch and 32-inch arm HGW for broad working areas. A "head only" (HGWK) double lens model is offered for compact work areas where space is limited.
All HGW Halogen Machine Lights are ideal for heavy coolant environments and provide IP-65 waterproof protection. The lights are used for CNC machinery, conventional mills, lathes, and other metalworking machinery and machine tools. The lights are also ideal for packaging machinery and food processing equipment where coolant, oil, and other fluids are present. The "head-only" models are ideal for grinders, machining centers, CNC lathes, screw machines, turning centers, and packaging and processing machinery where space is limited.
Other features of the HGW double lens series include either a 12V 55-watt lamp, or a 24V 70-watt halogen lamp with polished reflector that provides high intensity light and an estimated lamp life of over 150 hours. An ergonomically designed handle, and heat shield attached to the head, provide easy and safe positioning. The light also includes a 4-hole pattern mounting base. All 120V versions include a remote transformer in a waterproof case for plug-in to a 120V power supply.
