Emergency Lights, Cold Weather, Steel, Buy America Compliant (BAA), Dual Circuit Products (2 items)

An emergency light is a lighting device with a battery backup that switches on automatically when a building experiences a power outage. Emergency lights are standard in commercial and high occupancy residential buildings, such as college dormitories. Most building codes require emergency lighting be installed in older buildings as well.

Batteries placed in cold environments can eventually fail or rupture. If your emergency lights or exit signs will be installed in temperatures below 20° F (-6° C), you may want to consider a cold weather option. Cold weather lights include a thermostatic battery heater which maintains the battery strength and lifespan in temperatures between -4° F (-20° C) and -40° F (-40° C) depending on the model you choose.

Steel emergency lights and exit signs are designed to provide illumination and guidance in case of a power outage or an emergency situation. They are typically used in applications where steel housing is required for durability, protection, or aesthetics.

Some examples of where to use steel emergency lights and exit signs are:

Offices, factories, and warehouses: These places may have harsh environments or heavy machinery that can damage plastic or aluminum fixtures. Steel emergency lights and exit signs can withstand impacts, vibrations, and corrosion better than other materials.

Products displaying an 'Assembled in the USA' label will contain a percentage of imported components but will be physically assembled in America and are compliant with the Buy American Act (BAA). The FTC states that Assembled in America products must have undergone a significant transformation on American soil.

Dual circuit exit signs. These unit allows the fixture to have dual power feeds. The idea behind this is so that when on normal power, the fixture is fed from a switch leg and can be turned off by the occupant. The PTS relay coil is fed by unswitched normal power. The normal power from the switch leg is connected to the normally open contacts on the PTS relay.
