  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an explosion-proof lighting fitting of robust construction, which is resistant to external magnetic force fields, which is resistant to vibrations and shocks and which enables a maintenance-free period of at least 100,000 hours.
  • an explosion-proof lighting fitting as referred to in the introduction, which explosion-proof lighting fitting is according to the present invention characterized in that the lamp is placed on a baseplate within the housing, which baseplate functions to dissipate the heat generated by the lamp and that a heating element is provided in the space enclosed by the housing.
  • the heat conducting baseplate is made of a metal, which metal is preferably coated with a slightly light-reflecting material on at least one side thereof, in particular the upper side.
  • a slightly light-reflecting material on at least one side thereof, in particular the upper side.
  • the basepl ate consists of nickel-plated copper. Copper is a material which has a high heat conducting coefficient and the nickel which is plated thereon ensures that the light output of the lamp is not adversely affected by the presence of such a baseplate, due to the fact that the light is reflected by the nickel layer
  • the baseplate in a special embodiment it is furthermore preferred for the baseplate to extend radially up to the edge of the housing.
  • the heat generated by the lamp is thus evenly distributed over the baseplate, so that no stresses will be induced in the material. Moreover, in this manner the heat dissipating properties of the metal being used are utilized optimally.
