a) Check product labels for correct input voltage and frequency before installation.
b) If separate switched and unswitched supplies are to be connected to this luminaire they must originate from the same phase.
c) If testing distribution wiring by meggering, luminaires must be disconnected or damage may occur.
d) During installation do not position installation cables under electronic ballast.
1.1
Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with IEE regulations.
1.2
Carefully unpack the luminaire and remove the diffuser/ceiling panel, as appropriate.
1.3
Remove the geartray assembly from the housing where necessary.
1.4
Fix the luminaire to the ceiling or wall. Position the luminaire to ensure that the LED will be visible when installed. If vertically
mounted, ensure that the battery will be at the bottom of the luminaire.

Important Note: To retain the weatherproof integrity of an IP65 rated luminaire, the fixings should be sealed using mastic or
similar sealing compound to preserve the IP65 rating.

Self contained emergency lighting luminaires must be supplied with an unswitched supply. Maintained and Combined
(Sustained) luminaires may also be supplied with a switched supply to control the use of the luminaires as a part of the normal
lighting.
The battery pack label should be marked with installation date for self-contained luminaires.
1.7
Reassemble the luminaire and check operation by restoring the mains supply, checking that the LED is operating in self-contained
luminaires. The Autotest LED (Tricolour LED) should flash Red/Green for 6 seconds and then extinguish.
1.8
After being connected for 1 hour, depress the Autotest push button. This will initiate an 18-second self-test cycle where the unit will
check correct functioning of the product, both in a mains present situation and an emergency situation. Any failure will be indicated by
the buzzer sounding (if fitted) and the Autotest tricolour LED (see specification 2.6).
1.9
If there are no failures recorded, the product is correctly installed and the product will carry out all further tests required in
accordance with the test programme below.

Ensure that the mains supply is isolated. Connect the luminaire to the supply (or supplies) as marked using cable of at least 1.5 mm2
cross sectional area.

2. SPECIFICATION :
2.1
The purpose of edge lit and exit luminaires (with directional legends) is to provide either exit instruction or information, and not to
illuminate the surrounding area. Therefore the light output value of said luminaire types must be assumed to be zero and correct operation
determined by legend panel legibility.
The rated total light output of emergency lighting luminaires used to illuminate surrounding areas will be affected by normal production
tolerances of electronic circuitry and by the performance of any fluorescent lamp utilised. The figures quoted are therefore subject to a
tolerance of +/- 20%.
Figures quoted are the minimum values expected during the period from 1 minute after supply failure to the end of rated duration.
Nominal values will exceed those quoted.
Rated Total Emergency Light Output
Mode of Operation – Autotest Luminaires are available in the following modes of operation:2.1.1 Self-contained Luminaires:
2.1.1.1 Non Maintained - the lamp(s) are normally off and illuminated only in case of failure of the mains supply.
2.1.1.2 Maintained - the lamp(s) always illuminate in case of failure of the mains supply but are also able to be used to
provide normal lighting when the Switched Live connection is powered.
2.1.1.3 Combined or Sustained - at least one of the lamps is normally off and illuminated only in case of failure of the
mains supply. Separate lamp(s) may be used to provide normal lighting when the Switched Live connection is
powered.
2.2
RATED LIGHT OUTPUT:
Emergency Lighting Inverter - High frequency inverter modules for emergency lighting complying with the requirements of
EN60924 and EN60925.
2.3
Battery - High Temperature Sealed Nickel Cadmium, voltage and capacity as marked.
2.4
Lamp(s) - Fluorescent (See specification on product label)
2.5
Charge Indicator - High Intensity Light Emitting Diode (L.E.D.) indicating correct functioning of charger and connection of battery.
2.6
Status Indicator - Buzzer (if fitted), sounds for 10 seconds every hour under any fault condition, detailed below.

4. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Page 2 of 2
4.1
On completion of the installation a copy of these instructions together with the test record card(s) should be handed over to the
authority responsible for maintenance.
4.2
Cleaning and relamping of emergency lighting luminaires should be regularly carried out to ensure optimum photometric
performance.
4.3
Isolate supply to luminaire before attempting any form of servicing. Be aware that the emergency lighting inverter circuit will
continue to function after isolation of the mains supply and there is an Electric Shock Risk from fluorescent lamp tube pins etc.
4.4
It is recommended that sealed rechargeable nickel cadmium batteries are replaced after each 4 years of operation in accordance
with their design life. Batteries should be replaced when the luminaire no longer meets its’ declared duration performance. Consult
the company for details of correct replacement battery packs.

Fluorescent lamps should be disposed of carefully taking precautions against glass fragments.
Rechargeable batteries should not be disposed of with normal waste. Seek advice from the company.
5. TESTING RECOMMENDATIONS
For Self Contained Luminaires the following test schedule is adopted and any failures indicated via the Status LED indicator (see specification
2.6)
Daily:
Monthly:
Six Monthly:
Annually
Manual:
The unit is checked for mains present and correct battery charge operation.
The daily test is carried out. The Autotest module interrupts the mains supply to the luminaire and the luminaire
switches into emergency operation. The unit is allowed to operate for 60 seconds in emergency during which time
correct operation is checked.
The daily test is carried out. The Autotest module interrupts the mains supply to the luminaire and the luminaire
switches into emergency operation. The unit is allowed to operate for 1 hour in emergency (20 minutes for a one
hour system) during which time correct operation is checked.
The daily test is carried out. The Autotest module interrupts the mains supply to the luminaire and the luminaire
switches into emergency operation. The unit is allowed to operate for a full rated duration in emergency during
which time correct operation is checked.
Any time the push button is depressed, the Autotest module indicates how many monthly tests have been carried
out in an annual schedule. Buzzer (if fitted) is turned on/off and Tricolour LED flashes Amber every second
indicating the number of tests passed, then it goes into self-test sequence where the module will check the correct
functioning of the product.
