Product Information
The Wolflite ATEX Rechargeable Handlamp is ideal for use as a
general purpose safety lamp for inspection and work tasks in explosive atmospheres. Rechargeable
battery operation offers a convenient and cost effective solution for Ex applications where a
handlamp is frequently required for long periods.
CE marking of the Wolflite Handlamp is in compliance with the 94/9/EC ‘Explosive
Atmospheres’ (ATEX) Directive and the EMC Directive. The H-251A is also certified to the IECEx
Scheme and has a Lloyd’s and an MCA Type Approval for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in
marine applications.
The Wolflite Handlamp offers the same extreme robustness and reliability for use in harsh
environments found with all Wolflite Handlamps. The scratch and impact resistant lens is made from
6mm toughened glass.
The handlamp body and lens ring is moulded in a highly resilient thermoplastic material
able to withstand the drop and impact expected from heavy industrial use, even at sub-zero
temperatures. Additionally the material is electrostatic non-hazardous, ensuring there is no risk
of a dangerous build up of static charges. The lamp enclosure is sealed to IP66, preventing the
ingress of dust and sealing against water in all conditions except
submersion.
The outstanding light output is achieved with the use of an LED light source in the
H-251ALED giving approximately 50% more light and a three fold increase in duration over the high
efficiency halogen bulb fitted as standard with the H-251A. Both are focused within a 100mm
diameter parabolic reflector giving the user an extremely well defined beam of intense white
light.
The H-79 LED Centre Contact can be retro-fitted to existing H-251A handlamps.
The battery pack, recharged internally within the Wolflite Rechargeable Handlamp, uses the
same highly reliable sealed lead acid system as all rechargeable Wolflite Handlamps, but is
enhanced with electronic protection and controls. The battery is rendered intrinsically safe by the
use of a fast switching short-circuit protection circuit. A low voltage cut-off feature
automatically switches the lamp off when all useful battery capacity has been used, protecting the
battery from damage through deep discharge. Power-failure mode allows the handlamp to be used as an
escape light, automatically illuminating if power to the charger is interrupted.
The Wolflite Rechargeable Handlamp is recharged in the standard Wolflite Lamp chargers,
the C-251HV mains charger and the C-251LV vehicle charger.
The handlamp is supplied with a convenient removable shoulder strap.
