Maintenance and Inspection Lights
Maintenance & Inspection Lights
Maintenance and Inspection lights are engineered specifically for areas exposed to flashes or explosions – caused by flammable gases or vapours. Lights used for such areas must operate at a temperature that will not ignite the surrounding flammable atmosphere.
