Important Safeguards
When using electrical equipment, basic safety precau-
tions should always be followed including the
following: READ AND FOLLOW ALL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
All servicing should be performed by qualified personnel only.
To prevent high voltage from being on red & yellow output
leads prior to installation, battery connector must be open. Do
not join battery connector until installation is complete and AC
power is supplied to the emergency ballast.
Do not use this equipment outdoors.
This product is designed for use in UL Listed indoor fixtures
except in air handling, heated air outlet or hazardous locations.
Do not let power supply cords touch hot surfaces.
Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.
Do not mount near open flames or sparks.
Do not install equipment in areas of excessive moisture.
Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.
Do not attempt to service battery. Contact manufacturer for
information on service.
This product is for use with most 20W through 40W single pin
or bipin fluorescent lamps, including standard, energy saving,
circline, U-shaped, and most 26W-39W rapid-start (4pin), long
compact fluorescent lamps.
An unswitched AC power source is required. (120 or 277 VAC)
The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
This emergency ballast is for factory or field installation in
either the ballast channel or on top of the fixture.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both normal
and emergency power supplies before servicing by discon-
necting all AC inputs to the fixture and by disconnecting the
battery.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To prevent high voltage from being present on red and
yellow output leads prior to installation, battery connector must
be open. Do not join battery connector until installation is
complete and AC power is supplied to the emergency ballast.
NOTE: Make sure that the necessary branch circuit
wiring is available. An unswitched source of power is required.
The emergency ballast must be fed from the same branch cir-
cuit as the AC ballast.
1. Disconnect AC power from the fixture. Remove the
ballast channel cover and install the emergency ballast either
in the ballast channel (see illustrations 1&2) or on top of the fix-
ture. *(See illustration 3).
2. Select the appropriate wiring diagram to
connect the emergency ballast to the AC ballast and lamp.
Make sure all connections are in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and any local regulations.

3. Install the test switch through the ballast channel cover
of a troffer or through the side of a strip fix- ture. Drill a 1/2”
hole and install the switch as shown. (See illustrations 1,2,&
3). Wire the test switch so that it removes AC power from
both the emergency ballast and the AC ballast at the same
time. (See illustration 5).
4. Refer to illustration 6 and install the charging indicator light
so that it will be visible after the fixture is installed.
NOTE:
After installing the charging indicator light and test switch,
mark each with the appropriate label. If a detached charging
indicator light is used, connect by matching wire colors and
install as shown in Illustration 6.
5. In a readily visible location, attach the label “Caution-This
Unit Has more Than one Power Connection Point. To
Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect Both The
Branch Circuit Or Fuses And Emergency Power Supplies
Before Servicing.”

NOTE: After installing the charging indicator light and
test switch, mark each with appropriate label.
6. After installation is complete, supply AC power to the
emergency ballast and join the battery connector.
7. A short-term discharge test may be conducted after the
emergency ballast has been charging for one hour. Charge
for 24 hours before conducting a long-term discharge test.
Refer to OPERATION.
OPERATION
When AC power is applied, the charging indicator
light is illuminated, indicating that the battery is being
charged. When power fails, the emergency ballast automat-
ically switches to emergency power, operating 17W-40W
lamps at reduced illumination for at least 90 minutes
MAINTENANCE
Although no routine maintenance is required to keep the
emergency ballast functional, it should be checked peridical-
ly to ensure that it is working. The following schedule is rec-
ommended:
1. Visually inspect the charging indicator light monthly. It
should be illuminated.
2. Test the emergency operation of the fixture at 30-day
intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds. One lamp should
operate at reduced illumination.
3. Conduct a 90-minute dischare test once a year, either on
or two lamps should operate at reduced illumination for at
least 90 minutes.
