Mini•Gard luminaires are UL Listed for Class I, Division 2 and
comply with NEC Article 501-9(b)(2) as “tested and found
incapable of igniting the gas or vapor if the ignition tempera-
ture is not exceeded”.

WARNING–Do not use GE Multi-Vapor® II MXR175 lamps in explosion proof or

hazardous duty fixtures because they have higher bulb temperatures than stan-
dard 175-watt metal halide lamps and may exceed the temperature rating of these
fixture types.
