Cooper Crouse-Hinds, a leader in electrical products that provide safety, productivity, innovation, and labour savings in hazardous, industrial, and commercial environments, has extended and upgraded its popular AB12 series of T8 fluorescent lamps with a new T8 LED Ex-approved version, which is certified for use in Zone 1 and 2 hazardous gas and Zone 21 and 22 hazardous dust environments.

The fourth supplement of the AB12 certification LOM 02 ATEX 2013X dated 11.10.2011 now allows for “the use of T8 LED tubes with direct mains supply up to 277V and consumed power up to 50W per tube.” The temperature class of the AB12 LED series is T6 for gas and T85 deg C for dust applications.

The AB12 LED series is available in three sizes, 9W, 18W, and 25W. These sizes are equivalent to fluorescent tube sizes of 18W, 36W, and 58W.
