3. The use of accessory equipment not recommended by manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition, and will void the unit's warranty
4. DO NOT use this LED Emergency Light for other than its intended purpose
5. Failure to insulate unused wire may result in shock hazard or unsafe condition as well as equipment failure
Hardwire Installation
1. Extend un-switched 20 hour AC supply of rated voltage to a junction box (supplied by others) installed in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Leave a minimum of 8 inches of slack on the wire. This
circuit should NOT be energized / live at this time
2. Open the unit by unscrewing the cover screws on the sides of the unit. The front cover can then be removed
3. Unit is supplied with universal spider knockouts and keyhole slots stamped into the back of the cabinet.
Knock out of the appropriate hole(s) and bring wires through the hole(s) into the cabinet
4. Mount the unit securely into place. DO NOT rely on the electrical box as the only support for the unit
5. Make proper wiring connections between the AC supply and the unit's transformer:
Black-Line:120V AC; Red-Line 347V AC; Green-Line Earth (see Wiring Diagram below)

8.Batteries already installed in the cabinet must be connected to the circuit board (see Wiring Diagram on page 1 and Fig.2)
9. Secure all internal wires
10.Replace cover and secure cover screws
11. Turn on AC line voltage supply
12. If the unit is supplied with a line cord, connect the line cord plug into the appropriate receptacle previously installed
13. If unit is complete with lamp heads, position the lamp heads to provide best lighting distribution by loosening head set 13.

13. then tighten the set screws to lock position
IMPORTANT REMINDER — The LED Emergency Light is furnished with a sophisticated low voltage battery dropout circuit to
protect the battery from over-discharge after the useful output has been used. Allow 20 hours recharge time after installation
or power failure for full-load testing or usage

Operation
1. To test, depress the TEST switch. Charge indicator will go out and the DC lamps will come on
2. Release the TEST switch. DC lamps will be extinguished, and the charge indicator will come on
3. A bright charge LED indicator light indicates a high charge rate. After the battery has reached full charge, the indicator light
will go out. Under normal operation, the high charge indicator will turn ON and OFF intermittently while the unit is in
standby mode (regular AC is present) since the charge rate will vary in order to maintain an optimal battery performance

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance
1. Code requires that the equipment be tested every 30 days for 30 seconds, and that written records be maintained for all
test results and repairs. Furthermore, the equipment is to be tested once a year for the required duration as per Code.
The battery is to be replaced or the equipment repaired whenever the eqeuipment fails to operate as intended during the
duration test. The manufacturer strongly recommends compliance with all Code requirements
2. Clean lenses on a regular basis to provide maximum light distribution in case of an emergency.
NOTE — The servicing of any parts should be performed by qualified service personnel ONLY. The use of replacement
parts not furnished by the manufacturer may cause equipment failure and will void the warranty
Emergency Lamps do not come on at all:
Pilot Light is out before test...
1. Check AC supply — be sure unit has 30 hour AC supply (un-switched)
2. AC supply is OK, and indicator light is out, replace PC Board Assembly. Pilot Light is on before test
3. Either the output is shortened or overloaded, or the battery is not connected
4. Battery is severely discharged. Allow 30 hours for recharge and then retest. NOTE — This could be the result of a switched
AC supply to the unit (which has been turned OFF at some point), a battery with a shortened cell, an old battery or a
battery which has been discharged due to a long power outage and is not yet fully recharged

LED Emergency Lights
MODEL OE-216-72W
Emergency Lamps come on dim when test button is pressed:
Battery discharged — permit unit to charge for 30 hours and then retest. If lamps are still dim, check charger for proper
function. If charger functions correctly, replace battery.
Emergency Lamps come on when battery is first connected:
Battery may be connected in reverse polarity. Check connections. Connect Positive (+) lead to Positive (+) battery terminal
and Negative (-) lead to Negative (-) battery terminal. The lamps should then turn OFF and the charge indicator should light
when AC power is applied (see Fig.3 on page 2 of this instruction manual).
Emergency Lamps come on dim when AC power is ON:
1. Check supply voltage and AC connections. This emergency light is provided with brownout protection.
The AC supply must be at least 80% of nominal (120V on a 347V line) for equipment to function normally.
2. At lower voltages, the emergency lamps will begin to glow dimly until the source voltage drops below the full turn-on point.
NOTE — This condition may also be caused by incorrectly connecting a 120V supply to the 347V transformer lead.
Nothing happens when the unit is energized:
Some model have a standard time delay built into the design of the charger board. Please allow 15 minutes with AC current
connected. At this point, the LED AC-ON and CHARGE lights should illuminate.
IMPORTANT REMINDER
OE-216-72W is constructed with steel housing and lightweight thermal plastic head in matching colour. It has a simple
and modern design with high efficiency LED remote heads. Universal mounting pattern and keyhole slots are
stamped on the back and conduit knockouts on the sides of each unit.
