THERMOPLASTIC EDGE-LIT LED EXIT SIGN

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Symmetry Series Edge-Lit Exit provides a progressive, thin, compact design that is complementary to upscale architectural spaces. This premium exit sign is ideal for commercial or retail architectural designs, while offering energy efficient power consumption. The simplified universal installation process makes the Symmetry Series Edge-Lit Exit both a specification product and electrical contractor favorite.

HOUSING

Impact resistant, UL 94 V-0, 5 VA thermoplastic housing/backbox can be used for both recessed and surface mount applications. White housing is standard, with an optional black housing.

PANEL

The Symmetry Series Edge-Lit Exit stencil panel includes customer-installable NFPA-type directional chevrons, and is manufactured from high impact clear acrylic and silk-screened computer generated artwork. All artworks meet UL and NFPA standards for exit signage. All models are supplied with white and mirrored inserts to complement the standard clear panel.

ILLUMINATION

Illumination is provided by diffusing LEDs through acrylic panels. The illumination is even and very accentuated. LEDs provide long life and low maintenance. The Symmetry Series Edge-Lit Exit LED models use high brightness LEDs to provide superior panel illumination for both red and green models.

ELECTRONICS

AC Only
120/277 VAC dual voltage input with surge protection.

Self-Powered
120/277 VAC dual voltage input with surgeprotected, solid-state charging circuitry provides for a reliable charging system. The charging system is furnished with low voltage disconnect, AC lockout, brownout protection, AC indicator lamp and test switch. The low voltage disconnect (LVD) feature will disconnect the battery prior to an unacceptable deep discharge, but not before the required 90 minute emergency operation. The AC lockout feature prevents battery drain prior to the initial energizing of utility power, and allows the installer to complete all wiring and electrical connections without energizing the emergency circuit. The brownout protection circuitry will automatically switch the unit into the emergency mode if the utility voltage sags below 20% of nominal. Battery charging circuitry is entirely solid state, and utilizes a constant current charger. Battery recharge time after full discharge is less than the required UL 924 standard. Line sensitive electronics cause an instantaneous transfer to battery power if utility power is lost, or a brownout condition is detected. When line voltage is present and stabilized, the transfer circuitry switches back to normal operation and begins recharging the battery. The transfer circuitry can be tested via a momentary test switch located on the housing.

BATTERY

Supplied standard with a maintenance free, sealed nickel cadmium battery. Battery is equipped with a quick connect plug for easy installation. The Symmetry Series Edge-Lit Exit will provide a full 90 minutes of illumination at full output. Suggested operating temperature range of 20°F (-7°C) to 95°F (35°C). Battery service life at optimum operating temperature (72°F) is estimated at 10 years.
