Upside Down Mounting of an Industrial Light Tower

Thursday, August 11, 2011 by Scott Welch
The following is an actual email request that we received at Marshall Wolf Automation.  Scott our technical support specialist was able to address this unique application for Patlite industrial light towers. Patlite industrial light tower

From:
 scott@wolfautomation.com

Question:

I have a guy that needs to hang two light and three light stack Patlite units from the ceiling. The lights they currently use are modular and the modules are shaking loose and falling to the ground. What would be the best unit for mounting safely upside down?

Answer:

Actually, we don’t have a “best” industrial light tower for hanging upside down, as this mounting option is not warrantied by Patlite anyway. 

The only other assembly style we have (besides the “twist-n-click” LU5 or LU7 series) has a screw that passes through the center of the tower to hold the cap, light modules and base together. This would be any series except Patlite LU5 or LU7.

Even the screwed-down style of industrial stack light might not be foolproof, but it’s better than twist-n-click.

Also, these light towers have more light directed so they are brighter when looking “up” at them. Since they are now mounted upside down, you would be looking “down” at them (a little less light intensity).This matters less the farther away you are from the stack light.

FYI, LU5 and LU7 are not designed with this directed light intensity.

Explosion Proof Industrial Light Towers from Werma

Tuesday, May 31, 2011 by Scott Welch

Here is an excerpt from a recent email response our technical department sent out to a customer looking for assistance with his application:

'Per our discussion late yesterday, please refer to page 250 of the attached catalog section. 

There you will see our Werma 740 series of industrial stack lights that are good for hazardous locations.  We understand your coal dust application to be a Class II, Division 2, Groups F&G area. 

As we mentioned, the elements within the stack light can be interchanged to accommodate your red, yellow, and sound needs.  Keep in mind that the sounder will be much quieter in this explosion proof enclosure than in open air. 

We strongly recommend an LED light source for maintenance reasons.  For both the red and yellow colors you will need to choose the desired light effect (e.g. permanent, blinking, flashing, rotating, EVS flicker, or Ultrabright).  You mentioned that most likely Ultrabright is the one for you.  Once you make your selections we can put together the bill of material and then provide part number, price, and availability through Wolf Automation.'
