Loading... Please wait...Emergency lights are designed to provide emergency illumination to business facilities during a power failure. For up to 90 minutes, emergency lights will activate via a battery backup system – and provide substantial lighting in order for the occupants of a building to find a safe guide to an exit during the event of an emergency. For outdoor locations, a special type of lighting is needed – known as “outdoor emergency lights.”
Outdoor emergency lights are a special type of emergency lighting that is designed to protect the lighting system from outdoor elements such as rain, snow, sleet, and humidity. The electrical system within normal emergency lights would easily malfunction when exposed to such conditions. Therefore, a waterproof material is used as a weather sealant when producing emergency lighting systems such as these. Outdoor emergency lights provide an added degree of protection that will ensure proper operation of the emergency lights during the event of an emergency.
The National Electric Code divides exterior lighting applications into two categories: damp locations, and wet locations.
Damp Locations
– Damp locations are areas that are only partially protected from the elements. Such areas would be outdoor facilities that have awnings and partial roofs or overhead enclosures. Although these spaces are protected from direct rain, snow, and sleet - they are not protected from the humidity that is produced by such events. Therefore, special outdoor emergency lighting must be used for these areas.
Wet Locations
– Wet locations are areas that are directly exposed to rain, snow, or sleet. Wet locations need the highest quality waterproof material in order to properly sustain against water and the outdoor elements.
Extreme Environments
Another type of lighting that we offer is industrial outdoor emergency lights. Industrial outdoor emergency lights offer a battery backup that is used to heat the fixtures to reduce moisture and frost - as well as maintaining a highly durable structure that can withstand impacts from common industrial flying debris hazards.
