Class I Div 2 Exit Sign and Emergency Light Combos – Hazardous Location Egress Fixtures
Class I Division 2 exit sign and light combos are designed for use in hazardous locations where flammable gases or vapors may be present under abnormal conditions. These fixtures provide both exit signage and emergency lighting in one explosion-resistant unit, offering dependable egress visibility and illumination in classified industrial environments. Each model is UL 844 and UL 924 listed, with rugged housings that meet stringent standards for hazardous locations as defined by the National Electrical Code (NEC).
Built for performance in chemical plants, wastewater facilities, fuel storage depots, and other volatile areas, Class I Div 2 combos feature sealed die-cast aluminum housings, gasketed lenses, and tamper-resistant hardware. They include high-output LED legends with adjustable lamp heads and an internal battery system that delivers 90 minutes of runtime during power failure—ensuring both compliance and safety in critical applications.
These units are typically designed for wall, ceiling, or pendant mount installation and are available with self-testing diagnostics to support simplified inspection routines. Directional chevrons are field-selectable, and most models support dual-voltage (120/277 VAC) operation for installation flexibility across facilities.
What is Class I Division 2? It refers to locations where flammable gases or vapors may exist under abnormal conditions. Exit/emergency combo units for these areas must be fully sealed and ignition-proof, designed to prevent sparks and withstand harsh industrial environments.
For other classified area solutions, explore our range of Class I Div 2 exit signs for standalone signage, or Class I Div 2 emergency lights for independent lighting coverage in explosive gas environments. If you require protection from combustible dust, consider our Class II Div 1 or Class II Div 2 rated exit signs for dust-ignitable locations.
