Twinsburg, OH – November 10, 2020 – LJ Star announces an innovative new design for critical process lighting that offers powerful and reliable LED lighting with a longer service life and higher energy efficiencies than typical halogen bulbs. The new Lumiglas^® Explosion-Proof Light Model USL08LED-EX is the brightest sight glass light available on the market.

Designed for hazardous environments in the chemical processing, pharmaceuticals and cannabis industries, the new Lumiglas LED light provides high-quality LED lighting for even the harshest applications, providing customers with a combination of powerful illumination and glare-free viewing.

The Lumiglas LED light’s highly engineered design delivers 10X the service life of typical halogen lights, with one-fifth of the energy consumption. These LEDs are a superior choice for process technicians since they can be precisely tuned to correct color temperatures, eliminating the distorting yellow glow of halogen lights that can affect vessel inspection. These sturdy, compact lights are now available with up to 2,200 lumens at a color temperature of 6200K.

Ideal for combination light/sight port or separate light- and sight-port vessel applications, Lumiglas LED lights are also excellent for specific area lighting, including sight flow indicators, instruments, control panels, valve manifolds, walkways, etc. The new powerful 20 watt units are available with various lens angles to optimize illumination.

Lumiglas LED lights are also safer and more reliable than halogen lights due to their moisture-proof, explosion-proof and advanced shock-resistant designs, offering maintenance-free illumination for up to five years.

Additionally, these explosion-proof lights offer easy assembly and disassembly with versatile designs that can adapt to various types of mounting configurations.

Lumiglas LED lights are UL 844 listed for Class I, Division 1 & 2, Groups C & D, and Division 2 Groups A & B applications. LED lights are approved for wet conditions, UL 1571 and carry IP65 rating for dust and waterjet tight protection, along with a Temperature Class of T6 at 50˚C ambient. The units can be attached to circular sight glass fitting weld-on styles Series DIN28120 or ANSI flange bolt-on type types.
