CEC requirements, mine regulations and the authority having jurisdiction can all affect acceptance; the project documentation must identify the applicable basis. Ask for authenticated documentation showing boundaries, group and minimum ignition temperature; do not classify from a photograph or area name.
Mine lighting selected for the classified area and operating conditions
Industrial and hazardous-location lighting support for surface and underground projects
Mine lighting selected for the classified area and operating conditions
crushing, conveying, milling, loading, maintenance shops and underground workings 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 requirements, mine regulations and the authority having jurisdiction can all affect acceptance; the project documentation must identify the applicable basis. For each catalogue number, verify dust or gas classification, impact, vibration, moisture, temperature and access, 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.

Underground Mining 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.
Surface Mining & Quarries
Surface Mining & Quarries 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.
Mineral Processing
Mineral 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.
Conveyor & Material Handling
Conveyor & Material Handling 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 Mining & Minerals?
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 or gas classification, impact, vibration, moisture, temperature and access are recorded before quotation.
