June 15, 2010... Dialight is now offering its SafeSite Series LED Bulkhead luminaire with ATEX certification for Zones 1 and 21. It also complies with ATEX Directive 94/9/EC, which is obligatory for any equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The product carries "CE" marking as per the European Union Directive. The ATEX certification opens up an important market extension for Dialight.

Dialight points out that the LED technology used in the Bulkhead luminaire will deliver 50,000 hours of operation in a wide variety of applications, radically reducing lighting maintenance needs in comparison to conventional solutions such as HPS and fluorescent lighting. Dialight notes that its compact design makes it suitable for stairwells, platforms, exits, walkways, tunnels, subways and other confined or hard-to-access spaces.
