10. BATTERY LIFE
11. POWER AND BATTERY CHARGE
To maintain the economical life of this product it is required that the battery be discharged and recharged
at least once every 6 months. The battery life can be reduced if the battery is not discharged as per the
requirements of AS/NZS 2293 or an equivalent standard. Increasing the number of duration tests above that
as defined in AS/NZS 2293 or an equivalent standard can have a positive effect on the battery performance as
long as 12 discharge cycles per year is not exceeded.
The Ektor Generation III platform uses smart battery charging technology which reduces power consumption
and increases battery life.
During the first stage of operation the battery charger charges the battery until full. Afterwards, the unit goes
into a stage which charges the battery periodically. This reduces the battery temperature and reduces the
loss of electrolytes which ultimately increases the service life of the battery.
The smart battery charger also offsets the charging time by a random interval to un-synchronise all the
emergency lighting in the building. This reduces the average loading on a building’s infrastructure and reduces
any impacts of surges created by turning on large numbers of products simultaneously.

12. WIRELESS DAUGHTERBOARD
13. SELF TEST/ STANDARD WIRING/ CENTRAL BATTERY SYSTEM
The Twinspot inverter also supports an optional wireless daughterboard. The driver must be disconnected
from mains and battery must be removed, before installing or changing any expansion module. More
information and a list of other accessories can be found in the Wireless design and installation guide. The
assembly for this part onto the inverter is shown below:
The inverter can be used in an automatic self-test mode which reduces the need for a test switch timer.
The self-test ability automatically disables if the unit is wired to DALI or the wireless daughterboard is attached.
Additionally the third generation platform can be wired to a central battery system. With this wiring the system
cannot report the light status (see Self test support document for more information).

23. CONSTRUCTION SITES
IMPORTANT NOTE: Continuously switching the power supply to the fitting on and off during or after
the installation process due to other processes being conducted on the building site could cause the fitting to
discharge and charge its battery many times during a short period which can impact negatively on the battery
life. It is not recommended that you connect the Ektor emergency products to the power supply if such
conditions are prevalent. If you choose to expose the Ektor emergency products to such harsh operating
conditions, Evolt may not honour any warranty on the life of the batteries or the dish. This Ektor emergency
product is designed to undergo regular discharge tests but it is recommended that the intervals between
consecutive tests are not less than two weeks. Frequent testing of the exit product will reduce the service life
of the battery. In order to prevent damage to the battery, leave the unswitched active circuit turned off at the
circuit breaker until such time as emergency lighting is required
24. TESTING PRECAUTIONS
When the Ektor emergency product is permanently connected to the mains supply you will need to allow 24
hours to charge its battery. Once the battery is fully charged you will need to conduct a manual discharge test
as per the requirements of AS/NZS 2293 or other relevant standards. At the time of printing, the Australian
standard requires that new fittings operate in emergency mode for at least 2 hours for their first discharge
test. Further tests are to be carried out at intervals of not more than six months. It is important that you keep
records of the initial test and ongoing tests in the building’s emergency service logbook. If the fitting is not to be
permanently connected to the mains supply at the time of installation, you must give it the mandatory 2 hour
test when you connect it permanently to the mains supply.
25. PROBLEM SOLVING PROCEDURE
