Why Appleton?
Appleton V-51 luminaires combine a malleable iron mounting hood and globe adapter with a triple-coat corrosion-resistant finish and a shock-absorbing porcelain socket, delivering rugged, code-compliant lighting for demanding hazardous and wet-location environments. Unitized construction and a furnished connection block simplify installation and maintenance, while CEC Class I, II, and III and NEC Class I Division 2 certifications support reliable, compliant performance in industrial and hazardous applications.
V-51 family note: the Appleton V-51 platform is built from several distinct sub-series (VGL, VPG1, VA, VGAT, VXHA, VWG, VC, VD, and others), each a different combination of mounting hood, globe material, and guard style for 60-300W hazardous-location lighting — not simple variants of one base fixture. This listing is one specific sub-series; see the other V-51 Series listings for the different hood/globe/guard combinations.
