Tritium Illumination Technology

The technology behind self-luminous exit signs is quite interesting; they utilize tritium gas. Tritium is a form of hydrogen gas that glows when it is placed in a shatterproof glass tube and combined with phosphor. Tritium tubes are placed inside the exit sign’s sturdy thermoplastic housing and arranged to spell the word EXIT. Tritium powered self-luminous exit signs glow for 10-20 years, depending on the model ordered.

Self-luminous exit signs are tritium powered, no electricity required! Plus, they have a 20 year lifespan.

Exit Sign Compliance

Self-luminous exit signs are UL 924 Listed, which means they meet the same code specifications as electrical exit signs. The UL Listing means you can purchase and install self-luminous exit signs with complete confidence in fire and building code compliance.

Self Luminous Exit Sign Applications

Since self-luminous exit signs are non-electrical, they can be placed both indoors and out. They are perfect for hard to reach locations since there are no maintenance requirements for the lifespan of the sign. Self-luminous exit signs are offered in a variety of colors for both the face and frame of the exit sign.

The face color surrounds the word EXIT and the frame surrounds the face and encloses the sign. Face color choices are red, green, black, or white and frame color choices are white or black.

Other Considerations

When purchasing a self-luminous exit sign, consider how long you will be operating the facility that the signs will be installed into. If that time is less than 10 years, choose a 10-year model. If you will be operating the facility for more than 10 years, purchase a 20-year self-luminous exit sign.
