Appleton VXHA-50 Vaportight Fixture 0.5 Inch

Product Description

The APPLETON VXHA-50 is a vaportight lighting fixture designed for use in wet, damp, or corrosive environments where standard fixtures are not suitable. Vaportight fixtures seal out moisture, dust, and contaminants, making them a reliable choice for industrial, commercial, and utility installations. The VXHA-50 features a 0.5-inch conduit entry point, allowing it to integrate directly into standard half-inch conduit runs. Licensed electricians install this type of fixture in locations requiring environmental protection for electrical components.

The VXHA-50 is suited for wet-location and damp-location applications including warehouses, parking structures, food processing facilities, car washes, and mechanical rooms. Its vaportight construction makes it appropriate wherever moisture ingress or airborne particulates present a risk to standard lighting equipment. The 0.5-inch conduit entry accommodates common branch-circuit wiring methods used in commercial and industrial electrical systems.

Key Features

• Vaportight construction seals out moisture, dust, and corrosive atmospheres
• 0.5-inch conduit entry for direct integration with standard conduit runs

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify with a non-contact voltage tester before beginning work. Ensure the conduit entry is properly sealed and the fixture is mounted securely to prevent moisture intrusion at connection points. Verify the wet or damp location rating is appropriate for the specific installation environment before mounting.
