Ceiling Mount Emergency Lights

Q: Are these units UL‑924 compliant?

Yes. Proper ceiling-mounted emergency lights must carry UL 924 listing and meet NFPA 101 code for 90-minute backup operation.

Ceiling mount emergency lights deliver high-output illumination—typically 600 to 1600 lumens—to meet NFPA 101 and IBC egress lighting requirements while preserving ceiling space. These fixtures ensure an average of ≥1 ft-candle, with a minimum of 0.1 ft-candle along egress paths for at least 90 minutes.

Ideal for high-ceiling environments—corridors, stairwells, auditoriums, and gymnasiums—ceiling-mounted units feature glare-reducing optics, durable housings, and LED efficiency (≥20 lm/W) that lowers energy use.

Available in surface, recessed, and T-bar ceiling configurations, many units include lithium-ion or Ni‑Cd battery backup, self-testing diagnostics, universal voltage input (120/277 VAC), and remote-head capability—delivering reliable performance in demanding spaces.
