Catalog Number Notes Type FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS INTENDED USE Designed for applications requiring full light output. Field installed with ţ uorescent Ţ xture to operate lamp(s), based on one 32W T8 linear lamp. The light output for other lamps will vary, providing optimum glare-free illumination for a minimum of 90 minutes upon interruption of normal power. CONSTRUCTION Fluorescent Battery Packs 20-gauge, black steel housing. Dual-voltage input capability (120V or 277V). Operates one or two 2' – 4' ţ uorescent T8 – T12 lamps, one 2' – 4' ţ uorescent T5, PS3000 T5HO, T8, T12, HO, VHO, long compact (biax) or one 6' – 8' ţ uorescent (T8 – T12) for 90 minutes. Compatible with electronic, rapid-start, instant-start, slimline, preheat or trigger start ballasts in standard or energy-saving conŢ gurations. Protects against partial or isolated power outages. Low-glare, shadow-free illumi- nation provides excellent visibility for safe building evacuation. Unit wires two ways: on night-light circuit (permanently energized) or on switch- able circuit (unswitched circuit to battery pack and switched circuit to the Ţ xture ballast). Unit will strike "normally off" lamp. ELECTRICAL Constant current series resistor-type charger, provides high efŢ ciency and reli- able operation. High efŢ ciency push-pull inverter is the most effective method of converting DC power to AC power. It provides maximum light output, battery life and reliability. AC/LVD reset allows battery connection before AC power is applied and prevents battery damage from deep discharge. Battery: Sealed, maintenance-free, high-temperature nickel cadmium battery. Ensures long life over wide temperature ranges. Battery automatically recharges after a 90-minute discharge. Fully charged after 72 hours. External battery connectors allow battery pack to be disabled for maintenance and installation. Pilot light and test switch provide visual and manual means of monitoring system operation. Two 1/2" holes are required to permit mounting of pilot light/test switch in Ţ xture housing. INSTALLATION Mounts concealed within the plenum or on top of Ţ xture housing for improved aesthetics and protection from vandalism. Wiring protected by 18" ţ exible conduit.
