ROI of Explosion-Proof LED Lighting | 120lm/W vs Traditional Fixtures

Analyze energy savings with Class I Div 2 LED linear lights. 40W=120W HID, 5-year payback period. Free calculator tool.

Energy Cost Analysis

Formula: Annual Savings = (Traditional Wattage × Hours/Day × Energy Cost) - (LED Wattage × Hours/Day × Energy Cost)

Example: 120W HID vs 40W LED at $0.12/kWh → $2,016/year savings per fixture.

Hidden Cost Reductions

Lower HVAC load: 60% less heat emission (ASHRAE 90.1-2019 compliant).

Maintenance savings: 80% fewer man-hours vs mercury vapor lamp replacements.

Certification Impact on ROI

IECEx/ATEX-certified LEDs reduce insurance premiums by 15-22% (FM Global data).

Tax incentives: U.S. EPAct 179D deductions for hazardous location upgrades. led explosion proof lights https://www.eneltec-led.com/products/led-explosion-proof-lights
