FAIL-SAFE
®
DESCRIPTION
The Fail-Safe VR 2000 12" Square combines strength-gaining architecture
with energy-saving technology. Architecturally angled facets with radius
corners actually increase the ability of the lens to deflect blows and
absorb impact. Extra-thick, injection-molded polycarbonate lens
incorporates optical design that obscures the lamp image and spreads
light evenly. UL/cUL listed for wet locations. The durable, versatile 12"
Square GC/GW is perfect for use in corridors, dormitories, public rest
rooms, rapid transit stations, loading docks and minimum security
institutions.
