battery disconnect and AC lockout
• Momentary test switch and LED AC on indicator
light.
• 120/277VAC, 60Hz.
• Power Consumption: 120V 4.8 W; 277V 4.6W.
Power Factor on all models: 0.85 lagging
• Operating Temperature Range: Nickel Cadmium
emergency unit with no remote capacity: 32°F
(0°F) to 104°F (40°C). All other models AC and
Emergency: 68°F (20°C) to 86°F (30°C).

• Optional Self-Diagnostic Circuit – SX option
automatically cycles the emergency lighting
unit every 25-30 days. The SX circuit checks
for battery charging and over charging, battery
capacity and reports any system malfunction. By
design the SX does not activate the lighting heads,
thus avoiding substantial lamp life reduction.
