flameproof led escape lights
Features
- Operates in any position
- 1 hour duration in emergency mode
- Charge indicator by 1 green LED (life time over 10 years)
- Automatic built-in self-test system (SATI) with memorization of tests indicated by LEDs
- Can be remotely controlled and checked without switching the mains off with remote control unit (not supplied).
- The remote control unit is installed in a safe area or within a flameproof box, which allows manual switching of up to 300 units for visual inspection
- Escape route lighting is 55 lumens consuming 0.50 watts of power. Space lighting is 540 lumens consuming 0.95 watts of power
- Addressable version operates without additional control lines. Communication between units and the control system is realized via mains borne signals that utilize the existing electrical wiring
- Can be maintained in hazardous areas as an internal switch cuts off battery supply automatically once the cover is unscrewed and opened.
- Padlockable switch is available on switched models which individually cuts off power supply and remote control
- Standard control system capacity of addressable version is one control system for up to 200 emergency lighting units
- Optional increased control system capacity for addressable version is available.
- The booster (repeater unit) is used to increase the length of the network allowing up to 1000 emergency lighting units to be on one control system. This allows for the use of a single computer to centralize the management of the facilities emergency lighting system.
- Connection to the plug-in terminal block via 2 x 5 x 2.5 mm² (0.003 x 0.008 x 0.004 in²) terminals. Supplied with two fixing brackets (zinc plated steel)
