One or two lamp(s) in a fixture can
be illuminated.
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC® EMERGENCY
BALLASTS enable an existing compact
fluorescent downlighting fixture to
operate as both an emergency egress
lighting fixture as well as a normal
lighting fixture. During a power loss,
the emergency ballast automatically
switches the fixture to emergency mode
and continues to operate one or two
lamp(s) at reduced lumen output for at
least 90 minutes.
These Emergency Ballasts can be installed
as part of a fixture by an OEM or added to
an existing fixture during a retrofit.

Application Information
SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC
EMERGENCY BALLASTS
are ideally suited for:
• Commercial
• Retail
• Offices
• Wherever emergency illumination
is required
ECS107 – 8/2009
This series has dual input voltage (120 or
277V) and it supports many lamp types
and wattages.
A single pole test switch and charge
indicator accessory kit is supplied
with each unit.
Each SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC Emergency
Ballast comes with the SYLVANIA Total
System Solution that includes AC lamp
ballast and emergency ballast compatibility.
AVERAGE INITIAL LUMENS
System Information
• Unit can be remote mounted up to half
the distance recommended by the
ballast manufacturer or 50 feet,
whichever is less.
• Unit can be wired into building circuit in
one of two ways: on night light circuit
(permanently energized) or on
switchable circuit (unswitched circuit to
the battery charger and switched circuit
to the fixture ballast).

Application Examples
TYPICAL STEPS REQUIRED TO DETERMINE EMERGENCY BALLASTED FIXTURE SPACING
(1) Codes: What national, state, and local codes are required? Determines minimum illuminance and average luminance
(2) Path: What is the space layout and proposed egress path? Specs include ceiling height, egress path width, space reflectances
(3) Fixtures: What fixtures and lamps are used?
Photometric data determines how much light will illuminate egress path
(4) Pick: Propose an emergency ballast.
Discount average initial lumens for life and temperature
(5) Calc: Calculate the emergency ballasted fixture spacing.
Run calculations with above data
1 FC average
Example 1: 100 Foot Corridor
0.1 FC minimum
Codes: LSC minimum 0.1FC and average 1.0FC
Path: 9' ceiling, 100'x8' corridor, reflectances of
