EVLPFB Low Profile Hazard•Gard
Installation & Maintenance Information
APPLICATION
Low Profile HAZARD-GARD
listed for use in Class I, Division 1 & 2, Groups B (with GB suffix),
C, D, Class II, E, F & G, simultaneous presence, Class III, and
Wet locations as defined by the National Electrical Code
to the fixture nameplate for specific classifications information
and operating temperature (T) rating.
Low Profile HAZARD-GARD Fluorescent fixtures are supplied
with a choice of voltages (120 and 277) and wattages (52 or 64).
The 52 watt fluorescent fixture is also available in 220-240V,
50/60 Hz.
Low Profile HAZARD-GARD Fluorescent lighting fixtures are
suitable for operation in ambient temperatures (as measured at
mounting position) between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F), as
marked on the fixture nameplate.
The EVLPFB fixture is supplied with a battery back-up. When AC
power is interrupted, the fixture switches to a built-in battery
power supply to light one lamp, providing emergency lighting for
at least 90 minutes. When AC power is restored, the fixture
automatically switches from battery power to AC power. While
operating on AC power, the fixture circuitry recharges the battery.

inspected, and maintained by qualified and competent personnel.
• To avoid electrical shock, be certain that power is OFF
before and during installation or before attempting any
maintenance
• To avoid explosion, do not install where marked
operating temperatures exceed ignition temperatures
of hazardous atmospheres.
•
Operating the fixture in ambient temperatures above
those indicated on fixture nameplate will result in globe
temperature exceeding nameplate markings and will
shorten life of internal components.
