ATEX TURBOLITE

Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The ATEX Turbolite is a high-power, compressed air-driven lamp designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. It complies with EN 1127 standards in Europe and FM Class 3600 standards in the USA. This lamp is ideal for activities such as shotblasting, cleaning, and coating in hazardous environments, providing a safer alternative to traditional lighting.

Specifications
The lamp is available in two models: Bay for general illumination and Flood for a wide-angle diffused beam. It is constructed from either aluminium or brass, with all models nickel-plated for corrosion resistance. The lamp operates using compressed air, which powers a turbine to generate the necessary electrical supply for the 250 Watt halogen bulb. Key improvements include sealed bearings, a refined regulator, and a silencer with a particle trap.

Special Certification Conditions
To ensure safety, the lamp requires clean, dry compressed air and an anti-static air hose. In explosive dust atmospheres, a remote exhaust is necessary to direct air to a safe area. Accessories such as anti-static hoses and tripods are available.

Features & Benefits
  • CE marked for use in zones 1 and 2 hazardous areas.
  • Lightweight aluminium construction.
  • 250 Watt halogen light output.
  • Safe compressed air power source.
  • Stainless steel exhaust silencer.
  • Dust ignition protection for zones 21 and 22.
  • Group I Mining approval with brass construction option.
  • US Factory Mutual dual marking approval.

Certifications
The ATEX Turbolite is certified for use in zones 1, 2, 21, and 22. It meets various standards, including EN1127:1998 and FM Class 1 Div 1 Groups A, B, C, D.

ATEX TURBOLITE-1

WORLD’S LEADING MANUFACTURER OF HAZARDOUS AREA PORTABLE & TEMPORARY LIGHTING Product Overview Features & Benefits The ATEX Turbolite is a high power compressed air driven lamp for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and meets EN 1127 'Explosion Prevention and Protection’ in Europe and FM Class 3600 ‘Electrical Equipment for use in Hazardous (Classified) Locations’ in the USA. Wolf airlamps provide illumination for shotblasting, cleaning and coating of storage tanks and vessels and pipeline and structural engineering activities, offering a safer alternative to mains and low voltage lighting where explosive atmospheres present a serious risk to the workforce. Light models include: Bay provides a high level of all-round general illumination and Flood has a matt reflector giving a wide-angle diffused beam. Available in aluminium (A) or brass (B), usable in gassy mines and all lamps are nickel plated to protect against corrosion and are supplied with a bridle and safety hook fitted. The ATEX Turbolite is powered, purged, pressurised and cooled by compressed air controlled by an integral regulator, which passes through the lamp head and drives the turbine wheel by means of three nozzle plates. The turbine drives a magnet rotor within windings, generating the 24 Volt ac electrical supply which powers the 250 Watt halogen bulb. Major improvements over other models, include sealed bearings, refined regulator, greater use of stainless steel components, bulb-life enhancing device and silencer with a particle trap. ■ CE marked to ATEX Directive, for use in zones 1 and 2 Hazardous Areas ■ Aluminium super-lightweight construction ■ 250 watt Halogen light output ■ Safe compressed air power source ■ Re-designed for greater reliability ■ Fitted with stainless steel exhaust silencer ■ Dust ignition protected for zones 21 and 22 using remote exhaust ■ Group I Mining approval with alternative brass construction ■ US Factory Mutual dual marking approval Special certification conditions: clean, dry compressed air and antistatic air hose are used to operate the lamp to minimise contamination inside the lamp and dangerous accumulation of static electricity and in potentially explosive dust atmospheres a ‘remote exhaust’ must be used, exhausting air to the safe area. Accessories available include anti-static hoses, filters and stands, tripods, setting and testing devic
