CA 2110604

A lighting fixture for use in hazardous locations and adverse environments, includes a mounting plate and a first ballast housing. A second non-interchangeable ballast housing may be alternately employed by use of an adapter ring removably securable intermediate the mounting plate and the second ballast housing. The adapter ring comprises a top portion specially adapted to engage the mounting plate, with first fastening means associated therewith, and a bottom portion specially adapted to engage the second ballast housing, with second fastening means being associated therewith. The adapter ring allows the replacement of the first ballast housing with the second, wherein the first and second ballast housings are not identical and are produced by different manufacturers. The adaptor ring effectively seals the interfaces with the mounting plate and second ballast housing, thereby maintaining the integrity of the lighting fixture for its intended purpose.

Un appareil d'éclairage utilisé dans des endroits dangereux et des environnements néfastes comprend une plaque de montage et un premier boîtier de ballast. On peut, si l'on veut, employer un deuxième boîtier de ballast non interchangeable en se servant d'une bague d'accouplement posée de façon amovible entre la plaque de montage et le deuxième boîtier de ballast. La bague d'accouplement comporte une partie supérieure spécialement adaptée pour se mettre en prise sur la plaque de montage, avec un premier moyen de fixation qui lui est associé, et une partie inférieure spécialement adaptée pour se mettre en prise sur le deuxième boîtier de ballast, avec un deuxième moyen de fixation qui lui est associé. La bague d'accouplement permet le remplacement du premier boîtier de ballast par le deuxième, les deux boîtiers de ballast n'étant pas identiques du fait qu'ils proviennent de fabricants distincts. La bague d'accouplement assure l'étanchéité des interfaces avec la plaque de montage et le deuxième boîtier de ballast, maintenant ainsi l'intégrité de l'appareil d'éclairage aux fins pour lesquelles il est utilisé.
