Emergency LED Lighting LED technology is a new frontier. For most in the lighting industry there is a very real learning curve as we explore the intricacies, applications, limitations and potential of this amazing light source. Despite the curve, use of LED lighting for general lighting purposes is rapidly growing. Its popularity is not a mystery. LED technology is continually improving. LEDs offer long life and high efficiency, have low operating costs and are lead and mercury free. As with other types of lighting, LED lighting must meet the life safety code requirements for emergency illumination. LED fixtures serving as emergency units must, therefore, provide at least 90 minutes of emergency lighting. Philips Bodine emergency LED drivers and emergency lighting inverters allow these fixtures to meet or exceed code. 1

Emergency lighting is code required Emergency lighting is a vital part of every facility’s life safety program. Local, state and national building codes, such as the NFPA® Life Safety Code® and National Electrical Code®, require reliable and sufficient emergency illumination for commercial, industrial and institutional buildings in the United States. When normal power fails for any reason, emergency lighting provides critical illumination. It helps to guide building occupants along the path of egress to the nearest exit. Philips Bodine Emergency Lighting Provides Instant Backup Philips Bodine emergency lighting products provide instant backup lighting whenever normal power fails. Philips Bodine fluorescent emergency ballasts, emergency LED drivers and emergency lighting inverters deliver 90 minutes of battery-supplied power. Complements Original Designs Philips Bodine emergency lighting products complement original lighting designs. Because they can be installed inconspicuously inside, on top of, near or remote from the fixture – depending on factors such as fixture, emergency lighting product and product model – they do not detract from fixture or interior design. Philips Bodine emergency lighting is emergency lighting you’ll never see until you need it.

the loss and immediately switch into emergency mode.

In field applications, a qualified electrician can typically install an emergency driver in less than 30 minutes.

30 minute installation

Looks like normal lighting Philips Bodine emergency lighting products use the same light source for normal and emergency lighting. As a result, emergency lighting appears similar to lighting under normal conditions. May reduce the risk of tampering Installed Philips Bodine units are generally less visible than other forms of emergency lighting, such as wall packs. Their inconspicuous placement helps reduce their visibility to potential vandals. Application Philips Emergency Lighting provides Philips Bodine emergency lighting products for a wide variety of applications, including indoor, outdoor, damp, cold temperature and hazardous locations.

Operation When normal power fails, Philips Bodine emergency lighting products sense the loss and immediately switch into emergency mode. This means the emergency lighting unit immediately begins supplying supplemental power to support emergency lighting operation for a minimum of 90 minutes. When normal power is restored, the emergency lighting unit returns to the charging mode. UL testing Philips Bodine emergency lighting products are tested by Underwriters’ Laboratories (UL) in accordance with standards set forth in UL 924, “Emergency Lighting and Power Equipment,” and/ or by other nationally recognized testing laboratories.

Life Safety Code AC power failures occur for a variety of reasons. Storms, tornadoes, hurricanes and other extreme weather conditions can affect AC power. Vehicular accidents, fires or equipment failure can also result in power outages. When this happens, liability concerns are inevitable. Serious accidents or mishaps could occur when occupants are left in total darkness during a power failure. In such instances, the first area of inquiry is often, “Did this building meet code?” Laws, Codes and Regulations Although state and local building codes vary, most are based upon: 1. National Electrical Code®, NFPA 70®, Article 700; 2. Life Safety Code®, NFPA 101®, Section 7.9; 3. Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) regulations. These codes provide complete information about emergency lighting requirements. However, a basic starting point is provided in the LSC 7.9.2.1 (2012), which states:

Emergency illumination shall be provided for a minimum of 1.5 hours in the event of failure of normal lighting. Emergency lighting facilities shall be arranged to provide initial illumination that is not less than an average of 1 ft-candle (10.8 lux) and, at any point, not less than 0.1 ft-candle (1.1 lux), measured along the path of egress at floor level. Illumination levels shall be permitted to decline to not less than an average of 0.6 ft-candle (6.5 lux) and, at any point, not less than 0.06 ft-candle (0.65 lux) at the end of 1.5 hours. A maximum-to-minimum illumination uniformity ratio of 40 to 1 shall not be exceeded.

It is important to remember that codes generally set minimum standards. Specifiers, building owners, facility management or municipalities may choose to go beyond minimums in their effort to keep people and property safe. Maintenance Codes mandate periodic monitoring of emergency lighting equipment once it is installed. Emergency operation must be tested at 30-day intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds, and, for battery-powered systems, a 90-minute discharge test must be conducted once a year. Additionally, the NFPA requires that records be kept as proof of maintenance.15.

Emergency solutions for LED lighting Choosing the appropriate emergency backup solution depends on the LED light source. Emergency drivers Emergency LED Drivers are the appropriate choice for applications utilizing an LED array powered by an external AC driver. Emergency LED drivers can be installed inside, on top of, or remotely from a fixture and operate one fixture during a power failure.

Inverters Emergency inverters are the most flexible solutions for LED applications. They may be used in applications that utilize LED lighting driven by external drivers. They are also suited for screw-in (Edison base) lamps or linear (tubular) lamps with an integrated/internal AC driver. Inverters can be installed to operate more than one fixture during a power failure.

“As with other types of lighting, LED lighting must meet the life safety code requirements for emergency illumination to guide building occupants along the path of egress.”

LED terminology LED: Light-emitting diode. A semiconductor device (diode) that emits visible light when electricity is applied. LED array: A configuration of one or more (usually many more) LEDs connected to the same power source. LED driver: A device that converts line voltage into the DC voltage and current necessary to drive the LED load. Emergency LED driver: A device that uses electronic circuitry to convert energy stored in a battery into the DC voltage and current necessary to drive the LED load within the parameters established by life safety codes. Integral-base LED lamp: A lamp in which the driver is built into the base. Because the lamp driver is built into the base, an emergency LED driver cannot be wired in between it and the lamp/LED/LED array. A unit with an integral base must, therefore, be driven in emergency mode by an inverter product. TLED (tubular LED): A tubular shaped LED lamp designed to replace the lamps in fluorescent fixtures. Various types of TLED lamps are available to use depending on the type of fixture and/or power source being used. Some TLEDs have integral drivers that operate without external drivers. LEDs in parallel: In parallel devices, all of the (+) terminals are connected and all of the (-) terminals are connected. Each connected component has the same voltage across it and draws as much current as its internal resistance allows. If all the components are exactly the same, the current through each will be equal and the total current draw from the power supply will be the individual current multiplied by the number of components or parallel legs connected. When LEDs are wired in parallel, each LED or group of LEDs will have the same voltage demand from the driver and draw an equal amount of current. LEDs in a series: The (+) terminal of one LED is connected to the (-) terminal of the next. When LEDs are wired in series, the voltage necessary to run them is the sum of the individual LED voltage drop and the current is the same in all LEDs.

Emergency LED drivers The Philips Bodine emergency LED driver line allows LED fixtures to serve as code-compliant emergency lighting sources. The expanding line includes drivers designed for a variety of applications: indoor, outdoor, damp, cold temperatures, steplights, downlights, security lighting, Class 2 installations and more.

Emergency LED drivers for

field installation The placement of Philips Bodine emergency LED drivers is similar to that of fluorescent emergency ballasts. Depending upon the emergency LED driver selected and fixture type, the emergency driver may be installed inside, on top of or remote from the fixture. Until recently, most emergency LED drivers were listed as UL Component Recognized as factory install only or UL Classified. A Classified listing requires both operating compatibility and verification of fixture with the Design Lights Consortium (DLC) database before the emergency driver can be field installed in the fixture. The restrictions associated with these listings make it more difficult for contractors or electricians to install an emergency LED driver in the field for new or retrofit applications. Philips Emergency Lighting continues to lead the industry by providing the solutions required by lighting professionals to take advantage of this innovative technology. Philips Emergency Lighting now offers Philips Bodine fully ETL Listed, field-installable emergency LED drivers. A wide variety of Philips Bodine emergency LED drivers are ETL Listed and are the first – and currently only – emergency LED drivers with this listing for factory or field installation. All other manufacturers’ EM drivers are suitable for factory installation only or carry a UL Classified status. We have emergency LED drivers that carry these designations too.

12


Fully ETL Listed, field-installable emergency LED drivers: • Eliminates factory installed up-charges for factory installation. • Eliminates the legwork involved in the field installation process for investigating the DLC compliance for UL Classified emergency LED drivers

To use a UL Classified emergency LED driver, one must ensure that: 1. The luminaire that will receive the emergency LED driver is actually in the DLC database. If it is not listed in the database, you can’t install the EM driver in the field. 2. The luminaire must be compatible with the emergency LED driver. Even though the luminaire is listed in the database, this does not mean it is compatible.

Some UL Classified emergency drivers are only compatible with their own brand of luminaires.

Convert existing LED luminaires into code-required emergency lighting. Philips Bodine emergency LED drivers do not affect normal fixture operation and may be used with a switched or unswitched LED fixture.

Fully Listed field-installable emergency LED drivers Eliminate time-consuming measures associated with Classified status

Understanding NRTL listings Philips Bodine emergency LED drivers and emergency inverters bear one or more of the following marks to certify compliance with standards associated with emergency lighting products. Each mark represents the approval of the emergency LED lighting product to be utilized as set forth by each NRTL (nationally recognized testing laboratory) and complies with the UL 924 emergency lighting standard. Each listing represents a set of standards that may or may not restrict the installation process.

Retrofit TLED solutions TLEDs or tubular LEDs are popular lamp replacements for fluorescent fixtures being utilized today. TLED replacement lamps reduce energy costs without the expense of replacing the entire fluorescent fixture. Select Bodine Emergency Ballasts are UL Listed for Emergency operation of specific LED Retrofit (T8) Tube Applications. While several factors about TLED lamps should be considered, there are three primary LED retrofit tube applications:

I. Standard fluorescent ballast with AC power into TLED. Ballast driven TLED may work with some Fluorescent Emergency Ballasts The following Bodine fluorescent emergency ballasts which provide AC output are compatible and will operate these LED Retrofit (T8) Tube Applications: B50, PEL-12 (Contractor grade B50), B30, LP600

2. Standard AC LED Driver with DC power into TLED. LED Driven TLED may use LED Emergency Driver The following Bodine LED emergency drivers which provide DC output will operate these specific DC input LED TLED Retrofit (T8) Tube applications: BSL310 Product Family, BSL310LP. Alernate Bodine models tested as needed for compatibility

3. Line Voltage TLED Applications In this application, the ac ballast is removed from the luminaire. All Bodine sinusoidal or line voltage inverters provide an emergency solution for TLED lamps which are driven at line voltage 120v-277v applications.
