PRODUCT OVERVIEW:

The SST16 is designed to provide an attractive emergency lighting solution for damp/wet location, vandal prone or high abuse areas. The powerful MR16 halogen lamps are fully adjustable, and are secured by an attractive molded lamp-holder which conceals all lamp head wiring. The housing, backplate and electronics shell are injection molded from a premium impact resistant polycarbonate. Wet location units are fully gasketed to prevent water entry. The product is UL listed for damp locations as standard. With the optional battery heater, the wet location listed unit is rated for use in temperatures down to -4°F (-20°C). A tamper-proofing screw kit is standard with all units.

CONSTRUCTION:

The high abuse housing, backplate and electronics shell are molded from high impact, GE Lexan® polycarbonate. All injection molded components meet the UL 94 V-0, 5 VA flame retardant standard for emergency lighting products. White housing is standard, with an optional black housing available. All units are supplied standard with a UL damp location listing and tamperproof screw kit. Optional wet location listed products include a fully gasketed cover. Standard non-tamperproof screws are also included with the product.

ILLUMINATION:

Illumination is provided by two high performance 5.5 watt, 6 VDC MR16-style halogen lamps. Lamps are held in an attractive molded swivel assembly, and are fully adjustable. When mounted on 18’ centers (8’ AFF) the SST16 will provide an average of one footcandle along a linear path of egress.

BATTERY TECHNOLOGY:

Maintenance-free sealed lead calcium battery supplies 90 minutes of emergency power. Estimated service life of 5 years.

INSTALLATION:

Wet location units may be mounted to standard 3-1/2” and 4” octagonal junction boxes. Damp location units may be junction box or rigid conduit mounted. Installing is simplified by the use of a snap-together backplate and housing. When installed with the supplied tamperproof screw kit, removal from mounting surface, or removal of outer protective cover is not possible under normal service conditions without the use of a torx T-15 bit. Utility supply is completed by use of a modular plug-in wiring harness. A convenient knockout is also made available in the top right section of product to accommodate 1/2" conduit (damp location listed units only).
