FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS
INTENDED USE — Provides a minimum of 90 minutes illumination for rated wattage upon loss of AC power.
Ideal for applications requiring attractive unit equipment with quick installation and unparalleled performance.
CONSTRUCTION — White, compact, low-prole contemporary design. Engineering-grade thermoplastic
housing is impact-resistant, scratch-resistant and corrosion-proof. UL94V-O ame rating. UV-stable resin resists
discoloration from natural and man-made light sources.
Two 9W wedge-base krypton lamps oer 80 percent more light output than the standard 9W incandescent
lamps.
Patented MR24, multi-faceted reector signicantly improves photometric performance – 48 percent more
light delivered to the path of egress.
Tool-less access for maintenance. Rigid conduit entry on both top and sides on large units (ELM654, ELM1254, and
ELM1272), and top only for small units (ELM618 and ELM627).
Universal J-box mounting pattern.
Low-prole, integrated test switch/pilot light.
Unique track and swivel arrangement permits full range lamp head adjustment.
US patent No. D-532,918. Patent-pending Quick-Mount for simple installation. Ceiling mount standard.
ELECTRICAL — Universal input voltage capability (120 through 277V, 50 or 60 Hz).
Current-limiting charger maximizes battery life and minimizes energy consumption. Provides low operating
costs.
Short-circuit protection — current-limiting charger circuitry protects printed circuit board from shorts.
Thermal protection senses circuitry temperature and adjusts charge current to prevent overheating and charger
failure.
Thermal compensation adjusts charger output to provide optimum charge voltage relative to ambient tem-
perature.
Regulated charge voltage maintains constant-charge voltage over a wide range of line voltages. Prevents over/
undercharging that shortens battery life and reduces capacity.
Filtered charger input minimizes charge voltage ripple and extends battery life.
AC/LVD reset allows battery connection before AC power is applied and prevents battery damage from deep
discharge.
DIAGNOSTICS (SD option): Single multi-chromatic LED indicator to display two-state charging, test activation
and three-state diagnostic status.
Test switch provides manual activation of 30-second diagnostic testing for on-demand visual inspection. Self-
diagnostic testing for ve minutes every 30 days and 30 minutes bi-annually. Automatic test is easily postponed
for eight hours by activating manual test switch. Diagnostic evaluation of lamp, AC to DC transfer, charging and
battery condition. Continuously monitors AC functionality.
Load learning capability self-calibrates to DC load at rst test, enabling it to detect a lamp failure on future tests.
It may be recalibrated at any time by holding down the test switch for 15 seconds.
BATTERY: Sealed, maintenance-free lead-calcium battery standard.
Sealed, maintenance-free nickel-cadmium battery optional.
