Reliable LED Lighting for Industrial Applications

The Koehler WorkSafe 2217 Flashlight features an LED light source that delivers up to 80 lumens of illumination. With a beam distance of up to 100 metres, it provides focused lighting for inspecting machinery, examining equipment, and navigating poorly illuminated work areas.

Its faceted reflector helps direct light towards the required working area, improving visibility during routine maintenance and inspection tasks. Whether used inside industrial facilities or during outdoor work, the flashlight offers a convenient source of portable illumination.

Intrinsically Safe Design for Hazardous Locations

The BrightStar Intrinsically Safe Flashlight is designed for environments where electrical equipment must meet specific safety requirements. The standard WorkSafe 2217 LED model 15460 carries intrinsic safety approvals for specified Class I, II, and III, Division 1 and Division 2 hazardous locations.

This safety-focused design makes the flashlight suitable for appropriately classified industrial environments where ordinary lighting equipment may not be permitted. Users should always confirm the exact approval markings and workplace requirements before operating the flashlight in a hazardous location.

IP67 Waterproof Protection and Durable Construction

Industrial environments can expose equipment to moisture, dust, and accidental impacts. The Koehler BrightStar WorkSafe 2217 LED Flashlight features IP67-rated protection, helping safeguard the flashlight against dust ingress and temporary water immersion under specified conditions.

Its impact-resistant construction is rated for drops of up to one metre. The durable body also includes an anti-roll design, helping prevent the flashlight from rolling away when placed on a flat surface.

The high-visibility safety orange housing makes the flashlight easier to identify in busy working environments, while its practical construction supports routine handling during maintenance and inspection activities.

Extended Battery Runtime for Professional Use

The WorkSafe 2217 LED Flashlight operates using two D-cell alkaline batteries and delivers a rated runtime of up to 200 hours. This extended operating capability helps reduce frequent battery replacements during regular industrial use.

The flashlight uses replaceable batteries rather than a rechargeable power system. Actual runtime can vary depending on battery condition, operating conditions, and usage patterns. Users should follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding approved batteries, especially when working in hazardous environments.

Convenient Three-Way Switch and Easy Handling

The Koehler BrightStar 2217 LED Flashlight includes a three-way switch with on, momentary-on, and off functions. This arrangement allows users to select continuous illumination or activate the light briefly when required.

A protective switch guard helps reduce accidental activation during storage, transport, or routine handling. The easy-grip body supports comfortable operation, including when wearing suitable work gloves.

An included S-Biner clip also provides a convenient attachment option for carrying the flashlight with compatible equipment.
