CEC Section 18 distinguishes Zones 20, 21 and 22. Facility labels such as headhouse or conveyor do not replace the documented boundary. Ask for authenticated documentation showing boundaries, group and minimum ignition temperature; do not classify from a photograph or area name.
Grain-handling lighting selected from the dust classification
Dust-hazard lighting support for elevators, mills and agricultural processing
Grain-handling lighting selected from the dust classification
bucket elevators, transfer points, bins, mills, loading areas and maintenance spaces can place classified and non-classified spaces only metres apart. The process and its classification documentation determine the fixture; the industry label does not.
CEC Section 18 distinguishes Zones 20, 21 and 22. Facility labels such as headhouse or conveyor do not replace the documented boundary. For each catalogue number, verify dust group, cloud and layer ignition temperatures, accumulation, ingress protection and mounting, plus a certification mark from an accredited Canadian certification body and any special conditions.
LEDEX compares the project documentation against product markings and calculates a layout from the exact model's IES file. You receive a fixture schedule with the supporting product documentation your project professional and inspection authority will ask for.
Application Areas
Grain Elevators & Silos
Grain Elevators & Silos conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Feed Mills
Feed Mills conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Grain Processing
Grain Processing conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Agricultural Storage
Agricultural Storage conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Recommended Products for This Industry
Why LEDEX for Grain Handling & Agriculture?
Classification-led selection
Candidate models are filtered by the documented Zone or Division, group, temperature and ambient range.
Model-specific records
We supply the certification record for the exact catalogue number and options, not a general family listing.
IES-based layout
The photometric model uses the project optics, mounting height and obstructions to predict fc/lux and uniformity.
Coordinated installation inputs
Mounting, wiring and dust group, cloud and layer ignition temperatures, accumulation, ingress protection and mounting are recorded before quotation.
