Hazardous Location Exit Sign Combo

Product Description

As the plant manager of a Custom Plastic Extrusion company, you've been given the company card to find a few exit signs and emergency lights to pass the upcoming inspection. You need a exit lighting thats built tough, has a high tolerance to heat and, most importantly, hermetically sealed to prevent causing an explosion. You also need a solution that won't bankrupt the company.

In this scenario (deemed a 'hazardous location' by the NEC) you can save installation and fixture costs with the Class 1 Division 2 Exit Sign Combo. It includes battery backup, keeping the red or green 'EXIT' legend running long after a power outage. The SVXH-R-D-2-MJ also features two (2) field-adjustable sealed MR16 lamp heads for lighting an egress pathway. This two-in-one fixture is ideal for hazardous industrial locations where explosive plastic fumes are sometimes present in the working environment.

All fixtures come with a surface mounting bracket and choice between red or green letters. This model usually ships out in less than one week. To receive a price quote or ask any question you might have about the specs and lead time, please call us today at 800-282-5600 to speak with an expert.

Construction

The SVXH-R-D-2-MJ is constructed with a 1/8" thick aluminum backplate that will not dent, peel or corrode. The 'EXIT' faceplate is made of polyvinyl chloride, and includes a gasket that prevents liquid or gas ingress to the sign. Tamper resistant screws seal the faceplate to the backplate, creating a seal around the battery, circuits and LED strip inside.

This Class 1 Division 2 Exit Sign Combo model has two (2) bottom mount 10-watt MR16 halogen lamps which can be adjusted to illuminate any escape pathway. The lamps are sealed by a gasketed polycarbonate shield. There is also a choice for a 4-watt LED MR16 as well, which effectively doubles the emergency run time from 90 to 180-minutes by utilizing the battery in a more efficient manner than halogen lamps would.

Battery

This SVXH-R-D-2-MJ model includes a rechargeable 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. Nickel-Cadmium batteries have the highest heat tolerance compared to other emergency batteries.

Since UL, OSHA and all city Fire Codes require monthly operational tests, the Self-Diagnostics feature is an obvious time and cost saving solution for maintenance teams. It will constantly monitor the battery, circuits and LEDs as well as perform a 30-second test monthly and a 90-minute power failure test every six months. An LED indicator light will flash red if any fault is detected, alerting maintenance personnel.
