About KILLARK LED

Killark is a brand within the Hubbell Incorporated portfolio, specializing in electrical equipment for hazardous and industrial environments. The brand's history dates back to 1913, when it was founded in St. Louis, Missouri, to manufacture conduit fittings and enclosures for the growing electrical industry. Over the decades, Killark expanded its product range to include a comprehensive line of hazardous location lighting, control stations, plugs and receptacles, and enclosures. The Killark LED series represents the brand's transition to solid-state lighting, offering energy-efficient fixtures that maintain the safety and durability required in classified areas. These LED products are designed to meet stringent industry standards, including UL listings for hazardous locations, and are commonly specified in applications where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts may be present.

3G Electric supplies the Killark LED line as part of its broader inventory of industrial electrical equipment. The current selection includes LED jelly jar lights, which are compact, ceiling-, wall-, or suspended-mount fixtures used in Class III, Division 1 and 2 locations. These fixtures operate on 120/277V AC and deliver 3,479 lumens at 5000K color temperature with a 45W power draw. They carry a T6 temperature code, indicating a maximum surface temperature of 85°C, which is suitable for environments with low ignition temperatures. The jelly jar design features a glass globe enclosed in a guard, providing impact resistance and a sealed optical chamber. This construction makes them appropriate for areas such as textile mills, grain handling facilities, and other locations where dust or fibers are present. The LED technology reduces maintenance compared to traditional incandescent or fluorescent sources, as there are no filaments or tubes to replace frequently.

In addition to the jelly jar models, Killark LED products encompass a range of high-bay, floodlight, and linear fixtures for hazardous areas. These fixtures often carry Class I, Division 1 and 2 ratings for gases and vapors, as well as Class II for combustible dusts. They are constructed with copper-free aluminum or non-metallic housings, depending on the model, and use tempered glass or polycarbonate lenses. Many are designed for extreme temperature ranges, from -40°C to 55°C, and offer various beam patterns and mounting options. The LED drivers are typically integral and may be field-replaceable, which simplifies maintenance. Killark also provides accessories such as guards, reflectors, and mounting brackets to adapt fixtures to specific installation requirements.

3G Electric supports the Killark LED line by maintaining stock of popular models and offering logistics coordination for global shipments. The company provides technical documentation, including specification sheets and installation manuals, to assist engineers and procurement teams in selecting the correct fixture for their classification and area. For custom requirements, 3G Electric can facilitate factory orders and provide lead time estimates. The focus is on ensuring that customers receive the appropriate hazardous location equipment that meets their regulatory and operational needs. With a network of suppliers and carriers, 3G Electric aims to deliver Killark LED products efficiently to industrial sites worldwide.

Common Applications

  • Textile manufacturing — Killark LED jelly jar lights (e.g., EML4530A2G) provide illumination in Class III, Division 1 areas where lint and fibers are present.
  • Grain handling and storage — Ceiling-mounted Killark LED jelly jar fixtures (e.g., EML4530X2G) light up dusty environments with T6 temperature code compliance.
  • Cotton ginning — Wall-mounted Killark LED jelly jar lights (e.g., EML4530B2G) offer durable, sealed lighting in areas with combustible dust.
  • Wood processing — Killark LED jelly jar fixtures with glass globes and guards resist impact and reduce ignition risks from sawdust.
  • Chemical processing — Killark LED hazardous location fixtures with T6 rating illuminate areas where low ignition temperature materials are handled.
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing — Killark LED jelly jar lights provide clean, efficient illumination in classified areas requiring frequent washdowns.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about KILLARK LED from 3G Electric.

What are the key specifications of the Killark LED jelly jar hazardous location lights?

The Killark LED jelly jar lights, such as models EML4530A2G, EML4530X2G, and EML4530B2G, are rated for Class III, Division 1 and 2 locations. They operate on 120/277V AC, consume 45 watts, and produce 3,479 lumens at a 5000K color temperature. The fixtures carry a T6 temperature code, meaning the maximum surface temperature is 85°C. They are available in suspended, ceiling, and wall mount configurations. The jelly jar design includes a glass globe and guard, providing impact protection and a sealed optical assembly suitable for dusty environments.

In which hazardous locations can Killark LED jelly jar lights be installed?

Killark LED jelly jar lights are designed for Class III, Division 1 and 2 hazardous locations, which are areas where easily ignitable fibers or flyings are present but not likely to be in suspension in the air in quantities sufficient to produce ignitable mixtures. Typical applications include textile mills, cotton gins, grain handling and storage facilities, and other processing plants where combustible dusts or fibers exist. The T6 rating allows use in areas with low ignition temperature requirements. They are not intended for Class I or Class II locations unless specifically rated for those classifications.

What mounting options are available for Killark LED jelly jar fixtures?

Killark LED jelly jar fixtures come in three primary mounting configurations: suspended, ceiling, and wall mount. The suspended mount model (e.g., EML4530A2G) is designed to hang from a conduit or chain, allowing the fixture to be positioned at a specific height. The ceiling mount model (e.g., EML4530X2G) attaches directly to a flat ceiling surface. The wall mount model (e.g., EML4530B2G) is fixed to a vertical surface. Each mounting type includes the necessary brackets or hubs for secure installation. The choice depends on the space layout, lighting requirements, and maintenance access.

How does 3G Electric support procurement of Killark LED products?

3G Electric maintains inventory of selected Killark LED models and can source additional items from the manufacturer. The company provides technical specifications, installation manuals, and compliance documentation to assist with project submittals. For orders, 3G Electric coordinates logistics, including export packing and shipping to international destinations. The team can also advise on lead times for non-stock items and facilitate factory orders. Procurement specialists can request quotes for specific part numbers and quantities, and 3G Electric will respond with pricing, availability, and estimated delivery schedules.

What are the benefits of LED technology in Killark hazardous location fixtures?

LED technology in Killark hazardous location fixtures offers several operational advantages. LEDs have a longer lifespan than traditional incandescent or fluorescent lamps, reducing the frequency of lamp replacements in hard-to-access areas. They are more energy-efficient, consuming less power for equivalent light output. LEDs also produce less heat, which can be critical in classified areas where temperature codes must be maintained. The solid-state design is resistant to shock and vibration, common in industrial settings. Additionally, LEDs provide instant-on illumination without warm-up time, and they can be dimmed or controlled with compatible systems, though specific capabilities vary by model.

Are Killark LED jelly jar lights suitable for outdoor use?

Killark LED jelly jar lights are primarily designed for indoor hazardous locations, but their construction may allow outdoor use if properly installed and protected from direct weather. The fixtures have a glass globe and guard, and the housing is typically made of aluminum or other durable materials. However, they may not carry an IP rating for water ingress unless specified. For outdoor applications, it is essential to verify the fixture's suitability and consider additional enclosures or mounting arrangements to prevent water accumulation. Consult the specific model's datasheet for environmental ratings and installation guidelines.
