Chicago Approved exit signs must meet specific rules and guidelines. Signs must be rectangular 20 gauge sheet metal with a glass or plastic face. The letters and arrows must be red on white. All exit signs must be internally illuminated with at least a 10 watt lamp.
Edge-lit
An edge-lit exit sign or an edge-lit stairs sign is a type of sign that uses LEDs to illuminate a clear acrylic panel with the word EXIT or STAIRS printed on it. The LEDs shine on the edges of the panel, making the word and the arrows (if any) stand out. The rest of the panel appears transparent or mirrored, giving a sleek and modern look to the sign. Edge-lit signs are often used in places where aesthetics are important, such as hotels, restaurants, or offices. Edge-lit signs are also energy-efficient, durable, and easy to install and maintain.
Self-Testing
This feature may be added to many exit sign and emergency light fixtures, the SDT feature prolongs battery life, and reduced man hours required OSHA tests. Self testing diagnostic automatically executes a 15 minute test every 30 days and runs a 90 minutes test once per year. The major reasons batteries typically fail is because they remain dormant for long periods of time. With the SDT feature automatically simulates a full discharge and full recharge to keep the batteries in peak performance. If any problems arise during this testing process it will report them through the user interface. This benefit drastically reduces man hours required by OSHA to manually perform the tests.
