Product Description
Your seaside resort patio was recently inspected by the Fire Marshall, who is threatening to close your business due to improper egress lighting. It seems you need battery backup exit signs made to withstand prolonged sun exposure, salt spray and stormy weather. You need the WLEX-R-1-BB, which offers added protection and reliability over our normal, wet location listed signs.
Our Exterior Exit Sign with Red Letters is UL924 compliant and NEMA 4X Listed for all non-hazardous outdoor areas. This gasket sealed fixture can also withstand high pressure hosedowns. If you have a cold location that drops below 30°F, select an optional Battery Heater which can withstand -4°F temperatures!
Construction
The WLEX-R-1-BB is constructed with a corrosion resistant plastic housing with a light gray finish. A clear polycarbonate faceplate protects the sign legend and keeps it clear of dust, liquid and debris. A silicone gasket creates a watertight seal between the housing and lens, qualifying this fixtures NEMA 4X listing.
This Exterior Exit Sign with Red Letters includes a red 'EXIT' stencil, and comes standard in single-sided configuration. The red stencil includes knockout directional chevrons (arrows), adaptable to any exit strategy. The WLX-SA-LR does not include mounting brackets.
Battery
The WLEX-R-1-BB model includes a maintenance-free, Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery pack. It provides emergency backup power to the exit sign for at least 90 minutes, and only requires 48-hours to fully recharge. Ni-Cd batteries are also better suited for cold environments where sealed lead acid batteries could corrode or rupture.
By adding the Battery Heater option, the WLEX-R-1-BB performs as a cold weather exit sign that can survive in temperatures as low as -4° F. Please note this will increase the product lead time one (1) extra week.
