COOPER LIGHTING - SURE-LITES ®
DESCRIPTION
The Sure-Lites CU1 unit represents the next generation of emergency
lighting. Sure-Lites has combined its dependable performance with a
visually pleasing design. The PRESTO(TM) unit is designed to harmonize
with today's decor in commercial and public spaces. Long-life battery
and solid-state engineering provide trouble-free operation. Two 5.4W
wedge base incandescent lamps in locking specular reflectors appear to
float in clear acrylic domes for distortion-free lighting. PRESTO(TM) is
"contractor-friendly". The unique wiring module makes installation a
snap. PRESTO(TM) may be ceiling or wall mounted, horizontally or
vertically.

Lamps
S o l i d - S t a te C h a rge r
Two 5.4W wedge base incandescent lamps in
specular reflectors with diffusing lens cover.
Lamps and reflector assembly may be adjusted
180° horizontally and 180° vertically. Ratcheting
washer and serrated dome provide positive
lamp aiming.
Supplied with a 120/277 VAC, voltage regulated
solid-state charger. Immediately upon
restoration of AC current after a power failure,
the charger provides a high charge rate. The
charge circuit reacts to the condition of the
battery and alters the rate of charge in order to
maintain peak battery capacity and maximize
battery life. Solid-state construction recharges
the battery following a power failure in
accordance with UL 924.
Housing
Injection molded high impact housing in white
or optional black finish. Separate wiring module
installs to junction box – no need to juggle
housing in position while making AC
connections. Wiring module connects to
housing with polarized plug. Tether straps
support housing in position for future
maintenance. Clear domes, made of standard
acrylic or optional vandal resistant
polycarbonate, provide distortion free lighting.
Knockouts provided for surface conduit
mounting. PRESTO may be wall or ceiling
mounted horizontally or vertically.
Sure-Lites’ line-latched electronic circuitry
makes installation easy and economical. A labor
efficient AC-activated load switch prevents the
lamps from turning on during installation to a
non-energized AC circuit. Line-latching
eliminates the need for a contractor’s return to a
job site to connect the batteries when the
building’s main power is permanently turned
on.
L ow- Vo l t a ge D i s c o n n e c t
When the battery’s terminal voltage falls below
80% of the rated voltage, the low-voltage
circuitry disconnects the lighting load. The
disconnect remains in effect until normal utility
power is restored, preventing deep battery
discharge.
O ve rl o a d a n d S h o rt - C i rc u i t P ro te c t i o n
The solid-state overload monitoring device in
the DC circuit disconnects the lamp load from
the battery should excessive wattage demands
be made and automatically resets when the
overload or short circuit is removed. This
overload current protective feature eliminates
the need for fuses or circuit breakers for the DC
load.
B row n o u t C i rc u i t
L i n e - L a t ch e d
energizes the lamps. Upon restoration of the AC
power, the emergency lamps will switch off and
the charger will automatically recharge the
battery.
The brownout circuit in Sure- Lites’ units
monitors the flow of AC current to the unit and
activates the emergency lighting system when a
predetermined reduction of AC power occurs.
This dip in voltage will cause most ballasted
fixtures to extinguish causing loss of normal
lighting even though a total power failure has
not occurred.
Te s t Sw i t ch / Powe r I n d i c a to r L i g h t
Conveniently located combination Test
Switch/Power Indicator Light allows for manual
verification of proper operation of the transfer
circuit and emergency lamps.
S e a l e d L e a d C a l c i u m B a tte r y
The fully sealed, long-life, maintenance-free
lead calcium battery is ideal for emergency
lighting applications. These recombinant cycle
batteries typically provide eight to ten years of
life and may be operated in any position.
Wa rra n t y
All Sure-Lite’ units are backed by a firm oneyear warranty against defect in material and
workmanship (excluding lamps). Maintenancefree, long-life, sealed lead calcium batteries
carry a five-year pro-rata warranty.
S o l i d - S t a te Tra n s fe r
The unit incorporates a solidstate switching
transistor which eliminates corroded and pitted
contacts or mechanical failures associated with
relays. The switching circuit is designed to
detect a loss of AC voltage and automatically
