CONSTRUCTION:

Backbox constructed of 20 gauge galvanized steel with 1/2” conduit knockouts. Faceplate constructed of impact resistant, UL 94 V-0, 5 VA white thermoplastic. (6 volt units only) 12 Volt units utilize a 12 gauge steel trim plate with a durable powder-coat finish in white or black.

ILLUMINATION:

Illumination is provided by two adjustable lamp heads. Choose from round or rectangular thermoplastic heads with Par 36 sealed beam tungsten or halogen, or wedge base tungsten or halogen lamps.

BATTERY TECHNOLOGY:

Choice of maintenance-free, sealed lead calcium or maintenance-free, sealed nickel cadmium batteries. Maintenance-free, sealed lead calcium battery has an estimated service life of 5 years, and an operating temperature range of 65°F (19°C) to 85°F (30°C). Maintenance-free, sealed nickel cadmium battery has an estimated service life of 10 years, and an operating temperature range of 20°F (-7°C) to 95°F (35°C). Nickel cadmium batteries are ideal for high ambient temperature areas. Batteries supply 90 minutes of emergency power.
