TESTING & MAINTENANCE
Emergency ode - The A.C. Power fails. The senses the A.C. Power failure and automatically switches to the
. One lamp is illuminated, at reduced output, for a minimum of 90 minutes. When the A.C. Power is
restored, the switches the system back to the and resumes battery charging. See page 1 of the
Instruction Manual.

Initial Testing - Allow the unit to charge approximately 1 hour, then press the to conduct a short discharge test.
Allow a 24 hour charge before conducting 90 minute test.
TBTS
The is a maintenance free unit, however, periodic inspection and testing is required. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code,
outlines the following schedule:
FPDL-32
onthly - Insure that the is illuminated. Conduct a 30 second discharge test by depressing the
. One lamp should operate at reduced output.
TBTS TBTS
Annually - Insure that the is illuminated. Conduct a full 11/2 hour discharge test. The unit should operate as
intended for the duration of the test.
