Lighting selection should not start with wattage alone. Required illuminance, fixture layout, mounting height and optical distribution must be calculated together.

What should be considered?

After ATEX marking and zone compatibility, verify ambient temperature, corrosion level, IP rating, impact resistance and cable entries.

Finally, review maintenance access, spare-part standardisation, emergency lighting scenarios and total cost of ownership.

Technical note

The information on this page is general guidance. Final equipment selection must be verified against the project risk assessment and product certificate.
