Cooper Lighting APW-SW232 Wraparound Fluorescent Fixture

Product Description

The COOPER LIGHTING APW-SW232 is a surface-mounted fluorescent wraparound light fixture designed for commercial and industrial ceiling applications. It accepts two T8 fluorescent lamps rated at 32 watts each and operates on a wide voltage range of 120 to 277 volts via an electronic ballast. The fixture measures 4 feet in length with a clear prismatic acrylic lens that delivers broad, even light distribution. Built with a steel housing, it is rated for wet locations, making it suitable for parking garages, stairwells, utility rooms, and covered outdoor areas. Licensed electricians and facility maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this fixture type.

This fixture is suited for general commercial, institutional, and light industrial environments requiring reliable overhead fluorescent lighting. Its wet location rating expands its use to areas subject to moisture exposure, including covered walkways, laundry rooms, and mechanical rooms. The surface-mount screw installation method allows direct mounting to ceilings or suspended junction boxes without a recessed housing. The wide input voltage range of 120 to 277 volts makes it compatible with both standard residential-grade and commercial-grade branch circuits, reducing the need for voltage-specific ordering on multi-voltage job sites.
