Raytec Named As Finalist For Intelligent Emergency

Emergency Lighting

Raytec is pleased to reveal that their Intelligent Emergency lighting have been shortlisted as a finalist in the 2019 EIC (Energy Industries Council) National Awards for the Technology category.

Emergency Ex lighting plays an important role in maintaining the safety of hazardous area zones and locations, and the well-being of those who work in them, by providing back-up illumination and lighting when the primary power source fails.

Hazardous areas are often located in high-risk environments with unstable power sources which make the need for an effective emergency hazardous area lighting solution absolutely critical to achieving the highest levels of safety on site.

The EIC National Awards recognise the work done by EIC members to grow and flourish both at home and abroad. Award entries are welcome from all EIC member companies.

Emergency Ex lighting plays a vita part in preserving the safety in a hazardous area in the event emergency situation occurs. At Raytec know the importance of designing a product that checks and indicates the health of the luminaire efficiently, decreasing all time and costs associated with maintaining the luminaire.

SPARTAN Intelligent Emergency range presents an innovative automatic testing function that is programmed to cycle the batteries, checks the health functionality of the emergency lighting and communicates this via an LED indicator. This product performs three different testing procedures to ensure the luminaire is operating correctly and the emergency battery system is functioning at its optimum level.

All our SPARTAN Intelligent Emergency lighting can maintain 100% light output in emergency mode for up to three hours and are available in both SPARTAN Linear and SPARTAN Bulkhead ranges.

We’re thrilled that Intelligent Emergency has been shortlisted as a finalist in the EIC awards. By making Ex luminaires easier to maintain, more reliable, and ultimately safer, we believe Intelligent Emergency is the future of emergency lighting in hazardous areas” Comments Barry Thompson, Raytec’s Director of Hazardous Area Division.

SPARTAN Intelligent Emergency luminaires are the first of its kind on the market, taking innovation, safety and performance of emergency luminaires to the next level!

There are three things to consider when choosing an intelligent emergency luminaire:

  • Light output levels during testing procedures
  • Timing of discharge cycles across an installation
  • Retaining battery charge during testing
