Hadar Lighting, part of the Ashington-based A-Belco Group, has launched the latest generation of LED floodlights certified for use in Hazardous Areas which offer the very latest LED technology producing more light using less power.

In comparison with the previous Standard and Emergency models, the new HDL106 N series delivers up to 34 percent more lumen output, offers a 56 percent increase in lumens per watt and provides greater cost-efficiency by reducing the power consumption by an impressive 13 percent.

The new technology is available in the HDL106N floodlight and the HDL106NE Emergency floodlight which is designed specifically for stairwells, muster areas, lifeboat stations and other critical zones in Zone 1 & 2 hazardous areas which require large amounts of light when normal power supplies fail.

The state-of-the-art technology will also be incorporated in a stainless steel variation for use in corrosive environments such as sulphur plants. Additionally, a new low temperature variation designed specifically for Arctic conditions and temperatures down to -50° is also being launched which will feature a toughened glass lens and metal fascia plate.

Hadar’s Senior Engineer, George Hatherley, commented ‘’LED technology has improved and has allowed us to develop even more efficient LED floodlights that use significantly less power and produce better quality light; this allows Hadar to remain a step ahead of the competition when it comes to developing the brightest, most energy-efficient LED lighting systems for Hazardous Areas.’’

Hadar Lighting’s Sales Director, Bill Armstrong added “We first introduced the new models at OTC Houston in May and the response has been extremely positive. The new lights raise the bar in the Hazardous Area market and we are currently shipping the first units to our global distributors and confidently expect them to solidify our position as a world leader in this field.’’
