Dazzled by floodlight glare in a pitch black tank?

Wolf Safety finds the ideal solution

Let’s be honest, a totally enclosed tank in a hazardous area which needs inspecting, cleaning or repairing is never going to win a workplace of the month award. You need good portable lighting just to see where you’re going, let alone carry out the task.If you’re working in a team there will be floodlights in use in different locations within the tank and the last thing you want is to be dazzled by the glare of your own light or those of your colleagues.

Aware of the problem Wolf Safety, world leaders in portable and temporary safety lighting, have found the ideal solution.  Their design team has developed an easily portable LED task floodlight, designed to reduce beam glare when working in potentially explosive atmospheres.

The robust LinkEx™WF-250XL Floodlite, easy to carry and more economical than comparable units, produces more than 3,000 lumens of white light, more than enough to illuminate a 5m square tank or similar space without dazzling.

With full application support available from Wolf’s technical team the WF-250XL offers an efficient, cost effective and highly versatile lighting
solution for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, even in the world’s harshest environments.

It also incorporates Wolf’s unique SOVI™ technology which alerts the user if lights are running outside certified and optimal voltage ranges, maximising safety and performance. Both LV and HV units are certified safe down to zero volts, as are Wolf’s WF-300®XL and LX-400/E luminaires.

“Users tell us our more powerful WF-300®XL Floodlite, which provides over 6,000 lumens, is great but can be too intense when working in small spaces,” says Michael Morley, Wolf Safety’s Technical Director.

“This new product not only solves that problem but also offers great lighting performance in confined spaces.”

Fully compliant with the latest ATEX and IECEx standards, including OPIS (optical intrinsic safety), the unit is fitted with a highly reliable LED
array designed to provide at least 100,000 hours of working life. The product’s design and construction incorporate cooling fins which ensure effective heat dissipation for the LED array.
