In the past, emergency lights were kept on 24 hours a day to meet life safety codes. More precise and energy saving control is now possible with the Emergency Power Control (ECS00), which converts normal light fixtures into approved emergency lights. ECS00 saves energy and money while ensuring compliance with both life safety and energy codes.
During normal operation, the same dimmer, occupancy sensor, dimming panel, or lighting control can switch and dim normal and emergency fixtures on and off simultaneously. During a utility power interruption, the ECS00 automatically bypasses the normal lighting controls, turning the emergency lights ON at full brightness, regardless of the dimmer position. The ECS00 is ceiling or wall mounted in a junction box with a single-gang plaster ring, usually located in the area where the emergency fixtures are installed.
- Isolated 0-10V relay contact ensure full brightness during utility power interruption, regardless of dimmer model
- Unique, patented automatic diagnostics eliminate manual monthly testing with two field-selectable automatic testing features:
- When a room switch is turned off, runs a 2.5-second self-test routine, verifying emergency power source availability and that the ballast and lamp(s) are functioning correctly
- Monthly/annual 30 second/90 minute test cycle with microprocessor logging
- Fire alarm, remote test and 0-10V dimming
- Utility and emergency power indicator LEDs
- Slim, attractive flush mount profile allows easy access to manual test switch and LEDs
