LED vapor-tight lights are a professional-grade solution to the many challenging environments requiring illumination. Ideal locations to fully utilize an LED vapor tight are areas where water, steam, or elements may cause damage to the fixture and LEDs over time. Suitable locations for vapor-tight LED lighting include car washes, food distribution centers, refrigerators, parking structures, and similar applications. The clamp-down cover provides a “vapor tight” seal so corrosive elements do not harm the fixture over the long term. Using LEDs inside also increases the life expectancy of the institution, which lowers energy and maintenance costs over the long haul.
Vapor-tight fixtures are a favorite amongst electricians and builders due to their utility and cost savings. Additionally, end users may benefit from local or state rebates, which lowers the overall cost of installation and materials. These fixtures are often paired with PIR or Microwave motion sensors to provide better lighting control and reduce energy consumption when applicable. Emergency battery backups are also recommended when using these fixtures. When perishable items are stored in wet locations, it can help reduce waste, causing outages.
The most common color temperature used with vapor-tight light fixtures is 5000K, and often (especially in grocery stores), high CRI is preferred due to the higher quality color used in the display.
The 8 FT. Vapor Tight Fixture is excellent for wet locations. This model uses only 75 watts but is bright, putting out 9,825 lumens. LED is safer than traditional lights; they do not overheat and have more extended usage—instant bright lighting with the flip of the switch.
