Ex Hazardous Zone Lighting

SA Equipment 110v Slam Hornet

The Slam Hornet offers a high light output with the advantage of being linkable and completely ATEX rated. All plugs and sockets are ATEX and fit to any 110v power source, the power source must be outside the hazardous area if it is not ATEX. Light output of 5800 lumens is provided by 2 x 36w compact fluorescent lamps. The unit is 1000mm x 100mm and weighs 3.3kgs.

AES 110v 100w ATEX light

The AES 110v ATEX leadlight is one of the few available that is certificated for the use of 100w bulbs. Each leadlight has an incorporated hanging hook, so that it can allow the operative to suspend the light leaving them hands free to complete their task. Hire fleet units do not have ATEX plugs and the power source must be external from the hazardous area.

We carry as stock a full inventory of spare parts for the AES lights.

• Model protection EEx d IIC
• II 2 G T6
• Certification INERIS 01ATEX 0072X

The AES Leadlight comes with varying lengths of power cable up to a maximum of 100 metres so as to ensure that the power source is located far enough away from the hazardous area. The AES Leadlight can also be mounted on a tripod for total flexibility as suitable suspension points are not always available.

AES 110v Festoon, 6 ATEX lights

The AES 110v Festoon leadlight is one of the few available that is certificated for the use of 100w bulbs. Each light unit has an incorporated hanging hook, so that it can allow the operative to suspend the light leaving them hands free to complete their task.

The Festoon has a total length of 90 metres with 15 metres between each light unit. The units do not have ATEX plugs and the power source must be external from the hazardous area.

SA Equipment Portable Slam Hornet

The Portable Slam Hornet offers all the advantages of the 110v Slam Hornet but does not need a power source into the hazardous area. This makes it ideal for walk through inspections and where access may not allow for power cables to be used.

Zone Zero Extension Lead Light

The Zone 0 lighting set is for the most extreme hazardous situations like wing and tank entry.

The light has a 20 metre working length with an additional length that attaches to the 110v supply. The unit is supplied by 110v which is then transformed down to 12v giving a powerful light from 3 x 3w LED's.

This unit is supplied complete with a purpose made ABS transit case

Oldham Cap Lamp

The Oldham GT series of Mining Lamps are the long established market leader in lead-acid technology based mining lamps. At the heart of the lamp is the totally reliable G headpiece with its prefocus halogen main bulb. This is combined with the T series of batteries, with the latest T5 and T6 models providing 16 Ah capacity.

Petzl Duo ATEX Headlamp

This smart light weight ATEX headlamp gives all the same benefits as the old Oldham cap lamp including duration. Everything is contained on the helmet so you no longer have to have large cumbersome batteries with a trailing flex. It comes complete with charger and will fit to any helmet with the addition of the helmet clips. It does not require the traditional cap lamp clip on the front of the helmet. 

All Wolf straight and Angled Torches

T4 models give outstanding light output using advanced, long life halogen or xenon bulbs, set in a high quality parabolic reflector, coupled with alkaline cell approval, giving up to 12 hours of light output. The T4+ halogen models are fitted with a low power warning circuit, illuminating a red indicator when battery voltage is low. Alternatively T6 approval allows use in any Zone 1 or 2 atmospheres, with optimum light output in this temperature class, and a 5 hour duration.

The Wolf ATEX Torch range is CE marked compliant with the 94/9/EC ATEX Explosive Atmospheres Equipment Directive. BASEEFA Certification is to the latest standards, for use in potentially explosive gas, vapour and mist atmospheres, zones 1 and 2, temperature class T6 or T4. Dust ignition protection covers use in zones 21 and 22, with the certified maximum surface temperatures of 65°C or 95°C. Temperature ambient use is from - 20°C to a maximum of 40°C or 55°C, as specified in the instructions.

Wolf H-251/ H-4DCA Torch

The Wolflite H-251 is a rechargeable Handlamp approved by BASEEFA and suitable for use in hazardous zones 1 and 2. Since its launch in 1980 the Wolflite has found a place as the market leader in hazardous area portable lighting equipment. Applications include the Petrochemical and Offshore industries, Fire-fighting, Gas and Water distribution, in short wherever a potentially explosive atmosphere may occur.

The Wolflite is constructed in highly durable polypropylene co-polymer, designed to withstand the effects of heavy industrial use. The glass lens is scratch and scuff resistant and will not discolour when in contact with chemicals. The entire product has been 'drop' tested for damage and both the outer and inner components proved equally highly resilient.

Many unique design features are incorporated in the H-251 Handlamp, including; an interlock mechanism preventing internal access when the lamp is in use, short circuit protection via a ceramic fuse and a magnetically operated, hermetically sealed Reed Switch to avoid open internal sparking. The rechargeable battery pack is made up of two sealed lead acid cells assembled into a robust casing. This battery pack has a recharge/discharge life of approximately 500 cycles.

The Wolf H-4DCA offers the same benefits only uses disposable alkaline batteries.

Wolf Toplite T3

The Toplite T3 Portable Searchlight is the most powerful, fully portable light source approved for use in zones 1 and 2 hazardous areas. It is ideal for use in inspection, maintenance and security applications or in rescue and recovery operations, in the presence of potentially explosive gases or vapours.

Advanced design and the use of quality components ensures a long life for the Toplite, even in heavy industrial use. The Toplite casing is rotationally moulded in lightweight but durable anti-static polyethylene polymer, and is able to withstand drop and impact even at sub zero temperatures. Ergonomic design ensures easy operation with gloved hands; the 3 position toggle switch allows single handed full power/off/low power selection. An Ingress Protection level of IP67 ensures reliable use in excessively wet conditions, with the added benefit that if the Toplite is dropped in water, it will float beam upwards for easy location. The light source is an all glass sealed beam unit, protected by a toughened glass lens. The TL-9050T3 spotlight has a 50 watt halogen lamp, providing a 160,000 candle power spot beam of intense white light, ideal for long distance illumination. The TL-9055T3 floodlight has a 35 watt trapezoidal flood beam, providing a wide angle of illumination over a localised area, perfect for maintenance operations in hazardous areas. High power on the Toplite TL-9050T3 lasts for approximately 70 minutes, low power for up to 130 minutes. On the TL-9055T3, high power lasts approximately 100 minutes, while low power lasts for up to 190 minutes.

The recharge time for a fully discharged battery is 16 hours. Charging at 230V AC is carried out using the compatible Toplite T3 plug top charger, UK or European style. An alternative 230V AC 'lead in, lead out' style charger is available for use elsewhere in the World. The Toplite has an electronic microprocessor control circuit which manages the operation and charging of the lamp. Features provided by this circuit include a multi-coloured state of charge indicator which displays battery capacity in both charge and discharge modes, a low voltage cut-off device which automatically switches off the lamp at the end of discharge, and a 'walk-out mode' which warns the user when low voltage cut-off approaches by automatically switching the beam to low power output and pulsing off once every 15 seconds. The Toplite is also equipped with a power failure illumination facility which is selectable by the user.
