ROSEMONT, Illinois -- Appleton has introduced the RigMaster, a fluorescent lighting fixture designed for offshore and land-based drilling rigs.
Rated for NEC Class I Division 2 atmospheres, Appleton's RigMaster metallic fluorescent lighting fixture is a rugged, dependable source of illumination for rig operations, according to Appleton.
Its lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum housing withstands extended exposure to high temperatures, caustic chemicals, UV rays, and driving vibrations, the company says. In addition, its neoprene gasket and impact-resistant lens acts to protect and seal against the damaging effects of dirt, dust, and moisture.
The Appleton RigMaster is available with a variety of mounting options including safety-cable eyebolts, for simple and secure installations wherever light is required for productive, safe rig operation. It also protects personnel and equipment in the event of a power interruption with instant-on capabilities and an optional emergency battery pack.
