SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Installation
1. TURN OFF AC POWER.
2. Route AC circuit wires to electrical box and leave 12’’ of wire length.
3. Securely mount unit in place. Connect AC supply wiring to unit as follows:
For 120 VAC operation : — Black to 120 VAC, White to neutral *
For 277 VAC operation : — Orange to 277 VAC, White to neutral *
* NOTE : BE SURE TO INSULATE UNUSED WIRE.
4. Extend DC wiring for remote fixtures, (if required), to unit. Wiring must comply with NEC articles 700 and 720. Do not exceed rated wattage of unit.
5. When ready to energize AC, plug polarized battery connector into circuit board. Lamps will not light at this time.
6. Energize AC. Pilot lamp and high charge LED will illuminate.
Testing
(See separate booklet for units with AD option)
Allow one minute for unit to stabilize before testing. To test, depress test switch. Pilot lights will go out and emergency lamps will come on. When test switch is release, emergency lamps will go off and both pilot lights will come on. Allow a minimum of 24 hours charge time after installation or power failure for initial full load testing.
Maintenance
Wet Battery:
Periodically inspect fluid levels on all cells. If refilling is required, use distilled water only, refill to designated upper line.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If unit is installed in an area of high temperatures, increase periodic inspection intervals, as higher watter usage will result.
(Observe safety precaution when handling corrosive batteries.)
Dry battery:
None required. Unit should be tested monthly in accordance with the requirements of NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, or local codes.
Important notice
This equipment is furnished with a low battery disconnect circuit in the emergency mode. If the building is to be unoccupied for an extended period of time and all the power is to be disconnected, the internal batteries must be unplugged from the circuit board to prevent damage. Do not allow the battery wires to short circuit.
Battery terminals are mounted on the component side of the circuit board. Make sure to separate lamp load evenly on both circuits.
